Accretion geometry of the neutron star low mass X-ray binary Cyg X-2 from X-ray polarization measurements
R. Farinelli, S. Fabiani, J. Poutanen +92
We report spectro-polarimetric results of an observational campaign of the bright neutron star low-mass X-ray binary Cyg X-2 simultaneously observed by IXPE, NICER and INTEGRAL. Co…
Polarization properties of the weakly magnetized neutron star X-ray binary GS 1826-238 in the high soft state
Fiamma Capitanio, Sergio Fabiani, Andrea Gnarini +94
The launch of the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) on 2021 December 9 has opened a new window in X-ray astronomy. We report here the results of the first IXPE observation…
Mapping the circumnuclear regions of the Circinus galaxy with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer
F. Ursini, A. Marinucci, G. Matt +94
We report on the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) observation of the closest and X-ray brightest Compton-thick active galactic nucleus (AGN), the Circinus galaxy. We find…
Transport of Cosmic ray electrons from 1 AU to the Sun
Vahe' Petrosian, Elena Orlando, Andrew Strong
Gamma rays are produced by cosmic ray (CR) protons interacting with the particles at solar photosphere and by cosmic ray electrons and positrons (CRes) via inverse Compton scatteri…
The TeV Sun Rises: Discovery of Gamma rays from the Quiescent Sun with HAWC
A. Albert, R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez +89
We report the first detection of a TeV gamma-ray flux from the solar disk (6.3), based on 6.1 years of data from the High Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) observatory. The 0.5--2…
An Optical Study of the Black Widow Population
D. Kandel, Roger W. Romani
The optical study of the heated substellar companions of `Black Widow' (BW) millisecond pulsars (MSP) provides unique information on the MSP particle and radiation output and on th…
