We present a long-term X-ray flux and spectral analysis for 1RXS J170849.0-400910 using Swift/XRT spanning over 8 years from 2005-2013. We also analyze two observations from Chandra and XMM in the period from 2003-2004. In this 10-yr period, 1RXS J170849.0-400910 displayed several rotational glitches. Previous studies have claimed variations in the X-ray emission associated with some of the glitches. From our analysis we find no evidence for significant X-ray flux variations and evidence for only low-level spectral variations. We also present an updated timing solution for 1RXS J170849.0-400910, from RXTE and Swift observations, which includes a previously unreported glitch at MJD 56019. We discuss the frequency and implications of radiatively quiet glitches in magnetars.

    A systematic Z1^2 and maximum-likelihood search of RXTE data finds dozens of intermittent pulse candidates in three accreting millisecond pulsars and derives an 8.76 h orbital period for SAX J1748.9-2021.
