The prospects for X-ray polarimetry and its potential use for understanding neutron stars
M. C. Weisskopf, R. F. Elsner, D. Hanna +4
We review the state of the art for measuring the X-ray polarization of neutron stars. We discuss how valuable precision measurements of the degree and position angle of polarizatio…
A Possible Magnetar Nature for IGR J16358-4726
S. K. Patel, J. Zurita, M. Del Santo +10
We present detailed spectral and timing analysis of the hard x-ray transient IGR J16358-4726 using multi-satellite archival observations. A study of the source flux time history ov…
Gamma-Ray Burst afterglows as probes of environment and blastwave physics I: absorption by host galaxy gas and dust
R. L. C. Starling, R. A. M. J. Wijers, K. Wiersema +5
We use a new approach to obtain limits on the absorbing columns towards an initial sample of 10 long Gamma-Ray Bursts observed with BeppoSAX and selected on the basis of their good…
Latest results on Jovian disk X-rays from XMM-Newton
G. Branduardi-Raymont, A. Bhardwaj, R. F. Elsner +6
We present the results of a spectral study of the soft X-ray emission (0.2-2.5 keV) from low-latitude (`disk') regions of Jupiter. The data were obtained during two observing campa…
A Chandra Search for Coronal X Rays from the Cool White Dwarf GD 356
Martin C. Weisskopf, Kinwah Wu, Virginia Trimble +4
We report observations with the Chandra X-ray Observatory of the single, cool, magnetic white dwarf GD 356. For consistent comparison with other X-ray observations of single white…
RAISHIN: A High-Resolution Three-Dimensional General Relativistic Magnetohydrodynamics Code
Yosuke Mizuno, Ken-Ichi Nishikawa, Shinji Koide +2
We have developed a new three-dimensional general relativistic magnetohydrodynamic (GRMHD) code, RAISHIN, using a conservative, high resolution shock-capturing scheme. The numerica…
