Subject Astronomical sciences not elsewhere classified
 
Description We request a continued modest monitoring cadence of once every 10 days for two radio magnetars, to track their rotation, flux density, and polarisation. 1E 1547.0-5408 has recently suffered a 'hiccup' in radiative properties as well as in its rotation, and the mid-term response to this event remains unclear. Swift J1818.0-1607 remains quite dynamic, and the unique UWL capabilities provide new opportunities to probe still mysterious radio emission mechanisms in magnetars. We will observe XTE J1810-197 and PSR J1622-4950, which ceased emission a year ago, less frequently. The overall request is 18 hours.
