Abstract

Context.We present a unified explanation for the observed properties of the isolated neutron star RX J0720.4-3125 by obtaining a self-consistent model that accounts simultaneously for the observed X-ray spectrum and optical excess, the pulsed fraction, the observed spectral feature around 0.3 keV, and the long-term spectral evolution.
