X-ray Polarization of the Eastern Lobe of SS 433
Philip Kaaret, Riccardo Ferrazzoli, Stefano Silvestri +103
How astrophysical systems translate the kinetic energy of bulk motion into the acceleration of particles to very high energies is a pressing question. SS 433 is a microquasar that…
Observations of 4U 1626-67 with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer
Herman L. Marshall, Mason Ng, Daniele Rogantini +91
We present measurements of the polarization of X-rays in the 2-8 keV band from the pulsar in the ultracompact low mass X-ray binary 4U1626-67 using data from the Imaging X-ray Pola…
The X-ray Polarization View of Mrk~421 in an Average Flux State as Observed by the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer
Laura Di Gesu, Immacolata Donnarumma, Fabrizio Tavecchio +100
Particle acceleration mechanisms in supermassive black hole jets, such as shock acceleration, magnetic reconnection, and turbulence, are expected to have observable signatures in t…
A weighted analysis to improve the X-ray polarization sensitivity of IXPE
Alessandro Di Marco, Enrico Costa, Fabio Muleri +29
IXPE is a Small Explorer mission that was launched at the end of 2021 to measure the polarization of X-ray emission from tens of astronomical sources. Its focal plane detectors are…
The IXPE Instrument Calibration Equipment
Fabio Muleri, Raffaele Piazzolla, Alessandro Di Marco +28
The Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer is a mission dedicated to the measurement of X-ray polarization from tens of astrophysical sources belonging to different classes. Expected t…
The Instrument of the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer
Paolo Soffitta, Luca Baldini, Ronaldo Bellazzini +78
While X-ray Spectroscopy, Timing and Imaging have improved verymuch since 1962, when the first astronomical non-solar source was discovered, especially with the launch of Newton/X-…
