First characterization of Swift J1845.7-0037 with NuSTAR
My quickest paper to date (4 days to submission). Still, some interesting results are reported! The hard X-ray transient source Swift J1845.7-0037 was discovered in 2012 by Swift/BAT. However, at that time no dedicated observations of the source were performed. On Oct 2019 the source became active again, and X-ray pulsations with a period of ~199s were detected with Swift/XRT. This triggered follow-up observations with NuSTAR. Here we report on the timing and spectral analysis of the source properties using NuSTAR and Swift/XRT. The main goal was to confirm pulsations and search for possible cyclotron lines in the broadband spectrum of the source to probe its magnetic field. Despite highly significant pulsations with period of 207.379(2) were detected, no evidence for a cyclotron line was found in the spectrum of the source. We therefore discuss the strength of the magnetic field based on the source flux and the detection of the transition to the "cold-disc" accretion regime during the 2012 outburst. Our conclusion is that, most likely, the source is a highly magnetized neutron star with B 10$^{13}$G at a large distance of d~10 kpc. The latter one consistent with the non-detection of a cyclotron line in the NuSTAR energy band.
