EXPO: a quantum leap in fast, wide-band X-ray polarimetry for astrophysics
Paolo Soffitta, Sebastien Guillot, Ian Hutchinson +137
The Enhanced X-ray Polarimetry Observatory (EXPO) is a mission concept proposed to ESA as an M8 candidate, with a prospective launch in 2041. Building on the scientific success of…
How the spin-phase variability of cyclotron lines shapes the pulsed fraction spectra: insights from 4U 1538-52
Dimitrios K. Maniadakis, Ekaterina Sokolova-Lapa, Antonino D'Aì +15
We study the energy-dependent pulse profile of 4U 1538-52 and its phase-dependent spectral variability, with emphasis on the behavior around the cyclotron resonant scattering featu…
Discovery of a variable energy-dependent X-ray polarization in the accreting neutron star GX 5-1
Sergio Fabiani, Fiamma Capitanio, Rosario Iaria +116
We report on the coordinated observations of the neutron star low-mass X-ray binary (NS-LMXB) \gx in X-rays (IXPE, NICER, Nustar and INTEGRAL), optical (REM and LCO), near-infrared…
First detection of X-ray polarization from the accreting neutron star 4U 1820-303
Alessandro Di Marco, Fabio La Monaca, Juri Poutanen +116
This paper reports the first detection of polarization in the X-rays for atoll-source 4U 1820-303, obtained with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) at 99.999% confidence…
Timing techniques applied to distributed modular high-energy astronomy: the HERMES project
A. Sanna, A. F. Gambino, L. Burderi +15
The HERMES-TP/SP (High Energy Rapid Modular Ensemble of Satellites -- Technologic and Scientific Pathfinder) is an in-orbit demonstration of the so-called distributed astronomy con…
The HERMES-Technologic and Scientific Pathfinder
F. Fiore, L. Burderi, M. Lavagna +12
HERMES-TP/SP (High Energy Rapid Modular Ensemble of Satellites Technologic and Scientific Pathfinder) is a constellation of six 3U nano-satellites hosting simple but innovative X-r…
The scientific payload on-board the HERMES-TP and HERMES-SP CubeSat missions
Y. Evangelista, F. Fiore, F. Fuschino +22
HERMES (High Energy Rapid Modular Ensemble of Satellites) Technological and Scientific pathfinder is a space borne mission based on a LEO constellation of nano-satellites. The 3U C…
