X-ray polarization detection of Cassiopeia A with IXPE
Jacco Vink, Dmitry Prokhorov, Riccardo Ferrazzoli +92
We report on a detection of polarized 3-6 keV X-ray emission from the supernova remnant Cassiopeia A with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE). The overall polar…
Observatory science with eXTP
Jean J. M. in 't Zand, Enrico Bozzo, Jinlu Qu +181
In this White Paper we present the potential of the enhanced X-ray Timing and Polarimetry (eXTP) mission for studies related to Observatory Science targets. These include flaring s…
GRMHD in axisymmetric dynamical spacetimes: the X-ECHO code
N. Bucciantini, L. Del Zanna
We present a new numerical code, X-ECHO, for general relativistic magnetohydrodynamics (GRMHD) in dynamical spacetimes. This is aimed at studying astrophysical situations where str…
Polarization in Pulsar Wind Nebulae
D. Volpi, L. Del Zanna, E. Amato +1
The main goal of our present work is to provide, for the first time, a simple computational tool that can be used to compute the brightness, the spectral index, the polarization, t…
Polarization in the inner region of Pulsar Wind Nebulae
N. Bucciantini, L. Del Zanna, E. amato +1
We present here the first effort to compute synthetic synchrotron polarization maps of Pulsar Wind Nebulae (PWNe). Our goal is to highlight how polarization can be used as an addit…
