Understanding Magnetars with Conservative Physics

Abstract:
I review recent progress in understanding observations of SGRs and AXPs under the assumptions that they have normal (non-strange) crusts and superfluid cores. Several qualitative manifestations of ultrastrong fields have probably been observed, including the recent 27 December 2004 event, and others remain theoretical possibilities.
