Continuous evolution of the polarization properties in the transient X-ray pulsar RX J0440.9+4431/LS V +44 17
Q. C. Zhao, L. Tao, S. Sergey Tsygankov +6
We present a detailed time-resolved and phase-resolved polarimetric analysis of the transient X-ray pulsar RX J0440.9+4431/LS V +44 17, using data from the Imaging X-ray Polarimetr…
