Spectral and polarization properties of black hole accretion disc emission: including absorption effects
Roberto Taverna, Lorenzo Marra, Stefano Bianchi +5
The study of radiation emitted from black hole accretion discs represents a crucial way to understand the main physical properties of these sources, and in particular the black hol…
Prospects for IXPE and eXTP polarimetric archaeology of the reflection nebulae in the Galactic center
L. Di Gesu, R. Ferrazzoli, I. Donnarumma +5
The X-ray polarization properties of the reflection nebulae in the Galactic center inform us about the direction of the illuminating source (through the polarization angle) and the…
A deep X-ray view of the bare AGN Ark 120. VI. Geometry of the hot corona from spectroscopic and polarization signatures
A. Marinucci, D. Porquet, F. Tamborra +9
The spectral shape of the hard X-ray continuum of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) can be ascribed to inverse Compton scattering of optical/UV seed photons from the accretion disc by a…
The growth of interest for astronomical X-ray polarimetry
F. Marin
Astronomical X-ray polarimetry was first explored in the end of the 60's by pioneering rocket instruments. The craze arising from the first discoveries on stellar and supernova rem…
