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…
A second view on the X-ray polarization of NGC 4151 with IXPE
V. E. Gianolli, S. Bianchi, E. Kammoun +21
We report on the second observing program of the active galactic nucleus NGC 4151 with simultaneous Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE; {\sim}750 ks), NuSTAR ({\sim}60 ks), X…
An IXPE-Led X-ray Spectro-Polarimetric Campaign on the Soft State of Cygnus X-1: X-ray Polarimetric Evidence for Strong Gravitational Lensing
James F. Steiner, Edward Nathan, Kun Hu +134
We present the first X-ray spectropolarimetric results for Cygnus X-1 in its soft state from a campaign of five IXPE observations conducted during 2023 May-June. Companion multiwav…
Discovery of a shock-compressed magnetic field in the north-western rim of the young supernova remnant RX J1713.7-3946 with X-ray polarimetry
Riccardo Ferrazzoli, Dmitry Prokhorov, Niccolò Bucciantini +99
Supernova remnants (SNRs) provide insights into cosmic-ray acceleration and magnetic field dynamics at shock fronts. Recent X-ray polarimetric measurements by the Imaging X-ray Pol…
Investigating the Properties of the Relativistic Jet and Hot Corona in AGN with X-ray Polarimetry
Dawoon E. Kim, Laura Di Gesu, Frédéric Marin +6
X-ray polarimetry has been suggested as a prominent tool for investigating the geometrical and physical properties of the emissions from active galactic nuclei (AGN). The successfu…
The outflowing ionised gas of I Zw 1 observed by HST COS
A. Juráňová, E. Costantini, G. A. Kriss +8
We present an analysis of the HST COS spectrum of IZw1 aiming to probe the absorbing medium associated with the active galactic nucleus (AGN). We fitted the emission spectrum and p…
First detection of polarization in X-rays for PSR B0540-69 and its nebula
Fei Xie, Josephine Wong, Fabio La Monaca +100
We report on X-ray polarization measurements of the extra-galactic Crab-like PSR B0540-69 and its Pulsar Wind Nebula (PWN) in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), using a ~850 ks Imag…
X-Ray Polarimetry of the Dipping Accreting Neutron Star 4U 1624-49
M. Lynne Saade, Philip Kaaret, Andrea Gnarini +98
We present the first X-ray polarimetric study of the dipping accreting neutron star 4U 162449 with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE). We report a detection of polari…
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…
Discovery of a strong rotation of the X-ray polarization angle in the galactic burster GX 13+1
Anna Bobrikova, Sofia V. Forsblom, Alessandro Di Marco +106
Weakly magnetized neutron stars in X-ray binaries show complex phenomenology with several spectral components that can be associated with the accretion disk, boundary and/or spread…
