Refined Constraints on the Hard X-ray Polarization of the Crab Pulsar and Nebula Derived from an Extended XL-Calibur Dataset
Matthew G. Baring, Jacob Casey, Sohee Chun +26
We present updated hard X-ray polarization measurements of the Crab pulsar and nebula obtained with the balloon-borne polarimeter XL-Calibur in the ~19-64 keV energy range. During…
XL-Calibur Polarimetry of Cyg X-1 Further Constrains the Origin of its Hard-state X-ray Emission
Hisamitsu Awaki, Matthew G. Baring, Richard Bose +36
The balloon-borne hard X-ray polarimetry mission XL-Calibur observed the Black Hole X-ray Binary (BHXRB) Cygnus X-1 (Cyg X-1) during its nearly six-day Long Duration Balloon (LDB)…
IXPE Observations of the Blazar Mrk 501 in 2022: A Multiwavelength View
L. Lisalda, E. Gau, H. Krawczynski +157
The blazar Markarian 501 (Mrk 501) was observed on three occasions over a 4-month period between 2022 March and 2022 July with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE). In thi…
XL-Calibur measurements of polarised hard X-ray emission from the Crab
Hisamitsu Awaki, Matthew G. Baring, Richard Bose +46
We report measurements of the linear polarisation degree (PD) and angle (PA) for hard X-ray emission from the Crab pulsar and wind nebula. Measurements were made with the XL-Calibu…
Detection of X-ray Polarization from the Blazar 1ES 1959+650 with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer
Manel Errando, Ioannis Liodakis, Alan P. Marscher +142
Observations of linear polarization in the 2-8 keV energy range with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) explore the magnetic field geometry and dynamics of the regions g…
Insights into the broad-band emission of the TeV blazar Mrk 501 during the first X-ray polarization measurements
S. Abe, J. Abhir, V. A. Acciari +260
We present the first multi-wavelength study of Mrk 501 including very-high-energy (VHE) gamma-ray observations simultaneous to X-ray polarization measurements from the Imaging X-ra…
Discovery of X-ray polarization angle rotation in active galaxy Mrk 421
Laura Di Gesu, Herman L. Marshall, Steven R. Ehlert +140
The magnetic field conditions in astrophysical relativistic jets can be probed by multiwavelength polarimetry, which has been recently extended to X-rays. For example, one can trac…
The Relative Importance of Faraday Rotation and QED Birefringence for the Linear Polarization of X-rays from Mass Accreting Black Holes
Henric Krawczynski, Lindsey Lisalda, Charles Gammie
The upcoming IXPE (2-8 keV) and XL-Calibur (15-75 keV) missions will make it possible to measure the linear polarization of X-rays from mass accreting stellar mass black holes with…
Observations of a GX 301-2 Apastron Flare with the X-Calibur Hard X-Ray Polarimeter Supported by NICER, the Swift XRT and BAT, and Fermi GBM
Q. Abarr, M. Baring, B. Beheshtipour +28
The accretion-powered X-ray pulsar GX 301-2 was observed with the balloon-borne X-Calibur hard X-ray polarimeter during late December 2018, with contiguous observations by the NICE…
