Soft gamma-ray repeaters and anomalous X-ray pulsars: Magnetars or young quark stars?

Recent measurements of the spin-down rates of soft gamma ray repeaters (SGRs) and anomalous X-ray pulsars (AXPs) have been interpreted as evidence that these objects are ``magnetars'': neutron stars spinning down by magnetic dipole radiation, but with a magnetic field two orders of magnitu...
