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…
In-flight performance of the Canadian Astro-H Metrology System
Luigi C. Gallo, Alexander Koujelev, Stephane Gagnon +11
The Canadian Astro-H Metrology System (CAMS) on the Hitomi X-ray satellite is a laser alignment system that measures the lateral displacement (X/Y) of the extensible optical bench…
The PoGO+ view on Crab off-pulse hard X-ray polarisation
M. Chauvin, H. -G. Florén, M. Friis +11
The linear polarisation fraction and angle of the hard X-ray emission from the Crab provide unique insight into high energy radiation mechanisms, complementing the usual imaging, t…
Shedding new light on the Crab with polarized X-rays
M. Chauvin, H. -G. Florén, M. Friis +13
Strong magnetic fields, synchrotron emission, and Compton scattering are omnipresent in compact celestial X-ray sources. Emissions in the X-ray energy band are consequently expecte…
