Polarized multiwavelength emission from pulsar wind - accretion disk interaction in a transitional millisecond pulsar
M. C. Baglio, F. Coti Zelati, A. Di Marco +17
Transitional millisecond pulsars (tMSPs) bridge the evolutionary gap between accreting neutron stars in low-mass X-ray binaries and millisecond radio pulsars. These systems exhibit…
Introduction to the number of -folds in slow-roll inflation
Alessandro Di Marco, Emanuele Orazi, Gianfranco Pradisi
In this review, a pedagogical introduction to the concepts of slow-roll inflationary Universe and number of -folds is provided. In particular, the differences between the basic…

Alessandro Papitto, Alessandro Di Marco, Juri Poutanen +22
We report on the discovery of polarized X-ray emission from an accreting millisecond pulsar. During a 10-day-long coverage of the February 2024 outburst of SRGA J144459.2-604207, t…
X-ray and multiwavelength polarization of Mrk 501 from 2022 to 2023
Chien-Ting J. Chen, Ioannis Liodakis, Riccardo Middei +143
We present multiwavelength polarization measurements of the luminous blazar Mrk~501 over a 14-month period. The 2--8 keV X-ray polarization was measured with the Imaging X-ray Pola…
Towards imaging-spectro-polarimetry of solar flares in the X-rays
Sergio Fabiani, John Rankin, Stefano Basso +19
X-ray polarimetry of solar flares is still a not well established field of observation of our star. Past polarimeters were not able to measure with a high significance the polariza…
