Accretion geometry of the black-hole binary Cygnus X-1 from X-ray polarimetry

M. Chauvin, H. -G. Florén, M. Friis +13

Black-hole binary (BHB) systems comprise a stellar-mass black hole and a closely orbiting companion star. Matter is transferred from the companion to the black hole, forming an acc…

Evaluating Performance of Photon-Number-Resolving Detectors

Mattias Jönsson, Gunnar Björk

We analyze the performance of photon-number-resolving (PNR) detectors and introduce a figure of merit for the accuracy of such detectors. This figure of merit is the (worst-case) p…

Isochronal age-mass discrepancy of young stars: SCExAO/CHARIS integral field spectroscopy of the HIP 79124 triple system

Ruben Asensio-Torres, Thayne Currie, Markus Janson +24

We present SCExAO/CHARIS 1.1--2.4 micron integral field direct spectroscopy of the young HIP 79124 triple system. HIP 79124 is a member of the Scorpius-Centaurus association, consi…

SPHERE dynamical and spectroscopic characterization of HD142527B

R. Claudi, A. -L. Maire, D. Mesa +50

We detect the accreting low-mass companion HD142527B at a separation of 73 mas (11.4 au) from the star. No other companions with mass greater than 10 MJ are visible in the field of…
