| Abstract: | Magnetars are neutron stars in which a decaying high magnetic field is the source of energy production. The suggestion that magnetars are the dominant source of energy for soft gamma repeaters and anomalous x-ray pulsars is examined. Some questions that arise, because of the very high magnetic fields, are considered. |
