Scientific paper

This work investigates the propagation of magnetars through the interstellar medium (ISM) using axisymmetric resistive magnetohydrodynamic simulations. We consider two cases: (1) Slow rotating magnetar, when the accretion radius R_{acc} is comparable to the magnetic standoff distance or Alfven radius R_A and gravitational focusing is important and (2) Magnetar rotating in the propeller regime, when accreting matter tends to be expelled from the equatorial region of the magnetosphere where the centrifugal force on matter corotating with the star exceeds the gravitational force.
