Scientific paper

We have recently discovered two X-ray bursts from the direction of the anomalous X-ray pulsar (AXP) 1E 1048.1-5937 in RXTE data. We also detected a major outburst from another AXP, 1E 2259+586. We request Chandra TOO observations for any AXP, to be triggered by the detection of bursting behavior. These observations will (a)verify the identity of the burburster if necessary; (b) permit the study of the evolution of the pulsed and persistent emission. This will further constrain the physics of magnetars.
