Discovery of the X-Ray Counterpart to the Rotating Radio Transient J1819–1458

We present the discovery of the first X-ray counterpart to a Rotating RAdio Transient (RRAT) source. RRAT J1819-1458 is a relatively highly magnetized (B65 x 10 super(13) G) member of a new class of unusual pulsar-like objects discovered by their bursting activity at radio wavelengths. A Chandra obs...
