Magnetic Field Properties inside the Jet of Mrk 421: Multiwavelength Polarimetry Including the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer

Dawoon E. Kim, Laura Di Gesu, Ioannis Liodakis +133

We conducted a polarimetry campaign from radio to X-ray wavelengths of the high-synchrotron-peak (HSP) blazar Mrk 421, including Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) measureme…

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…

X-ray Polarization Observations of BL Lacertae

Riccardo Middei, Ioannis Liodakis, Matteo Perri +143

Blazars are a class of jet-dominated active galactic nuclei with a typical double-humped spectral energy distribution. It is of common consensus the Synchrotron emission to be resp…

Polarized x-rays constrain the disk-jet geometry in the black hole x-ray binary Cygnus X-1

Henric Krawczynski, Fabio Muleri, Michal Dovčiak +111

A black hole x-ray binary (XRB) system forms when gas is stripped from a normal star and accretes onto a black hole, which heats the gas sufficiently to emit x-rays. We report a po…
