Magnetars are neutron stars with extremely high surface magnetic fields. They show diverse X-ray pulse profiles in the quiescent state. We perform a systematic Fourier analysis of their soft X-ray pulse profiles. We find that most magnetars have a single-peaked profile and hence have low amplitudes of the second Fourier harmonics (A2). On the other...
