Linear Polarization of Synchrotron Radiation from Very-small-pitch-angle Electrons
Meng Nie, Jirong Mao
For synchrotron radiation with pitch angle where is the electron Lorentz factor, referred to as very-small-pitch-angle synchrotron radiation, the polarization proper…

X-ray Polarization of Inverse Compton Scattering by Thermal and Nonthermal Electrons
Boting Wang, Jirong Mao, Jieying Liu +1
X-ray emission from accretion-powered astrophysical systems is widely interpreted as inverse Compton (IC) scattering between energetic electrons and soft photons. Besides the emitt…

Synchrotron polarization of anisotropic electron distribution in GRB prompt emission
Kang-Fa Cheng, Kai-Xian Luo, Xiao-Hong Zhao +7
In gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), the electron pitch angle () is usually assumed to be isotropically distributed. However, recent numerical simulations indicate that only the high-ene…
