Understand

RX J1856.5-3754 is the X-ray brightest among the nearby isolated neutron stars.

Its X-ray spectrum is thermal, and is reproduced remarkably well by a black-body, but its interpretation has remained puzzling.
One reason is that the source did not exhibit pulsations, and hence a magnetic field strength--vital input to atmosphere models--could not be estimated.
Recently, however, very weak pulsations were discovered.
