The First X-Ray Polarimetry of an Eclipsing Low-Mass X-Ray Binary: Serendipitous IXPE Observation of AX J1745.6-2901
Romana Mikušincová, Lorenzo Marra, Hemanth Manikantan +38
We present the first X-ray polarimetric measurement of the neutron star low-mass X-ray binary system AX J1745.6-2901 conducted by the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) sate…
The Advanced X-ray Imaging Satellite (AXIS) Community Science Book
Michael Koss, Nafisa Aftab, Steven W. Allen +395
The AXIS Community Science Book represents the collective effort of 592 scientists worldwide to define the transformative science enabled by the Advanced X-ray Imaging Satellite (A…
Unveiling the soft X-ray source population towards the inner Galactic disk with XMM-Newton
Tong Bao, Gabriele Ponti, Frank Haberl +5
Across the Galactic disk lies a diverse population of X-ray sources, with the fainter end remaining poorly understood due to past survey sensitivity limits. We aim to classify and…
The very faint X-ray transient Swift J174610-290018 at the Galactic center
Giovanni Stel, Gabriele Ponti, Nathalie Degenaar +17
Very Faint X-ray Transients (VFXTs) are a class of X-ray binary systems that exhibit occasional outbursts with peak X-ray luminosities (L_X< 1e36 erg s^-1) much lower than typical…
A multiwavelength study of the Galactic center black hole candidate MAXI J1744-294
Shifra Mandel, Kaya Mori, Paul A. Draghis +37
For the first time in nearly a decade, a bright transient was detected in the central parsec (pc) of the Galaxy. MAXI J1744-294, or -- as it was known in its previous life -- Swift…
Exploring MAXI J1744-294: IXPE insights into a Newly Discovered X-ray Transient
Lorenzo Marra, Romana Mikušincová, Federico M. Vincentelli +33
We present the first IXPE spectro-polarimetric observation of the black hole candidate MAXI J1744294, a transient X-ray source discovered during a bright 2025 outburst in the Ga…
Hunting for High-Mass X-ray Binaries in the Galactic Center with NuSTAR
Shifra Mandel, Julian Gerber, Kaya Mori +9
The central deg region of our Galaxy contains X-ray point sources that were detected by a series of Chandra observations over the last two decades. Ho…
