Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer

Brian Ramsey, Paolo Soffitta, Martin C. Weisskopf

In 1971 a group from Columbia University detected polarized X rays from the Crab Nebula at about 3 sigma level during a short sounding rocket flight (Novick et al. (1972)). This me…

X-ray polarization of Z-type neutron star low-mass X-ray binaries -- II. Spectropolarimetric analysis

Andrea Gnarini, Francesco Ursini, Giorgio Matt +8

IXPE has provided for the first time detailed energy- and time-resolved X-ray polarimetry of Z-type neutron star low-mass X-ray binaries (NS-LMXBs) as they move along their color-c…

The performance of the TA4 surface detector array: 4.3 years of the first-half expansion

Telescope Array Collaboration, R. U. Abbasi, T. Abu-Zayyad +126

The Telescope Array (TA) experiment aims to reveal the origin of ultra-high-energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) by observing air showers using surface detectors (SDs), which spread over an…

Advancing Heliophysics and Space Weather Modeling through Open Science

C. Corti, M. M. Kuznetsova, M. A. Reiss +85

We present a community-wide effort to develop a strategy and action plan to advance heliophysics and space weather modeling through open science. While open science has the potenti…

IXPE Polarizations of the Lighthouse Pulsar, Trail, and Filament

Jack T. Dinsmore, Roger W. Romani, S. Zhang +9

The Lighthouse pulsar (PSR J11016101) sports a bright X-ray trail and filament. The synchrotron emission from both structures is expected to be polarized, with electric vector p…

A Statistical Survey of Faint Solar X-ray Transients Observed by NuSTAR

Reed B. Masek, Lindsay Glesener, Jessie Duncan +14

In this paper, we use a highly sensitive telescope to characterize solar X-ray transients ranging from microflares in active regions down to weakly energetic brightenings in the qu…

IXPE view of the Crab pulsar following the 17 July and 6 August 2025 glitches

Paolo Soffitta, Niccolò Bucciantini, Josephine Wong +19

The Crab pulsar experienced two relatively small glitches separated by only 20 days in September and October 2025. IXPE observed the source twice, with delay times since the glitch…

Where within the 3C 84 jet are -rays produced?

Georgios F. Paraschos, Ioannis Liodakis, Svetlana Jorstad +49

The location of -ray creation and emission within extra-galactic jets is a matter of active debate. One particularly well-suited source to pinpoint the location is the nearby, b…

Observations of a Twin Pair of Atypical Solar Flares and a Magnetic-reconnection Scenario

Satyam Agarwal, Alphonse C. Sterling, Shibu K. Mathew +3

We present observations and a magnetic-reconnection scenario of a twin pair of "atypical flares" that occurred on 2022 April 22 in a quadrupolar magnetic configuration formed by tw…
