Pulsar-wind-nebula-powered Galactic center X-ray filament G0.13-0.11: Proof of the synchrotron nature by IXPE
Eugene Churazov, Ildar Khabibullin, Thibault Barnouin +103
We report the discovery of X-ray polarization from the X-ray-bright filament. G0.13-0.11 in the Galactic center (GC) region. This filament features a bright, hard X-ray source that…
Topology of Pulsar Profiles (ToPP). I. Graph theory method and classification of the EPN
D. Vohl, J. van Leeuwen, Y. Maan
Some of the most important information on a radio pulsar is derived from its average pulse profile. Many early pulsar studies were necessarily based on only few such profiles. Ther…

Dawoon E. Kim, Laura Di Gesu, Ioannis Liodakis +133
We conducted a polarimetry campaign from radio to X-ray wavelengths of the high-synchrotron-peak (HSP) blazar Mrk 421, including Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) measureme…
Multi-year characterisation of the broad-band emission from the intermittent extreme BL Lac 1ES~2344+514
H. Abe, S. Abe, V. A. Acciari +232
The BL Lac 1ES 2344+514 is known for temporary extreme properties (e.g., a shift of the synchrotron SED peak energy above 1keV). While those extreme states were so fa…
On the influence of shock-cloud interactions on the nonthermal X-ray emission from the supernova remnant RCW 86
Aya Bamba, Hidetoshi Sano, Ryo Yamazaki +1
It is an open issue how the surrounding environment of supernova remnant shocks affect nonthermal X-rays from accelerated electrons, with or without interacting dense material. We…
Astrophysical appearances of primordial black holes
Konstantin Postnov, Aleksandre Kuranov, Nikita Mitichkin
Interest to astrophysical evidence for primordial black holes (PBHs) formed in the early Universe from initial cosmological perturbations has increased after the discovery of coale…
A search for the afterglows, kilonovae, and host galaxies of two short GRBs: GRB 211106A and GRB 211227A
M. Ferro, R. Brivio, P. D'Avanzo +30
Context: GRB 211106A and GRB 211227A are recent gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) with initial X-ray positions suggesting associations with nearby galaxies (z < 0.7). Their prompt emission c…
Polarized radiation from an accretion shock in accreting millisecond pulsars using exact Compton scattering formalism
Anna Bobrikova, Vladislav Loktev, Tuomo Salmi +1
Pulse profiles of accreting millisecond pulsars can be used to determine neutron star (NS) parameters, such as their masses and radii, and therefore provide constraints on the equa…
Unveiling the X-ray polarimetric properties of LMC X-3 with IXPE, NICER, and Swift/XRT
Akash Garg, Divya Rawat, Mariano Méndez
The incoming Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) observations of X-ray binaries provide a new tool to investigate the underlying accretion geometry. Here we report the first…
An updated mass-radius analysis of the 2017-2018 NICER data set of PSR J0030+0451
Serena Vinciguerra, Tuomo Salmi, Anna L. Watts +11
In 2019 the NICER collaboration published the first mass and radius inferred for PSR J0030+0451, thanks to NICER observations, and consequent constraints on the equation of state c…
X-PSI Parameter Recovery for Temperature Map Configurations Inspired by PSR J0030+0451
Serena Vinciguerra, Tuomo Salmi, Anna L. Watts +3
In the last few years, the NICER collaboration has provided mass and radius inferences, via pulse profile modeling, for two pulsars: PSR J0030+0451 and PSR J0740+6620. Given the im…
Atmospheric Effects on Neutron Star Parameter Constraints with NICER
Tuomo Salmi, Serena Vinciguerra, Devarshi Choudhury +7
We present an analysis of the effects of uncertainties in the atmosphere models on the radius, mass, and other neutron star parameter constraints for the NICER observations of rota…
Discovery of strongly variable X-ray polarization in the neutron star low-mass X-ray binary transient XTE J1701462
Massimo Cocchi, Andrea Gnarini, Sergio Fabiani +105
After about 16 years since its first outburst, the transient neutron star low-mass X-ray binary XTE J1701462 turned on again in September 2022, allowing for the first study of i…
