Soft gamma repeater

A compact magnetized neutron star (magnetar-like) shown as a tiny dark bluish to blue-white metallic sphere with a strongly magnetized appearance. The surface has intensely bright opposed polar hotspots in white to violet tones, with a visibly tilted magnetic axis. Surround the star with prominent magnetic field loops, and show several short burst-like, jagged flashes of gamma radiation emerging from the surface in yellow-white, purple, and gold hues. The emission should appear as brief eruptive bursts rather than long steady beams, conveying extreme high-energy activity. Use clean scientific clipart style with thin, even line weight and restrained glow effects.
