Investigating the Properties of the Relativistic Jet and Hot Corona in AGN with X-ray Polarimetry

Dawoon E. Kim, Laura Di Gesu, Frédéric Marin +6

X-ray polarimetry has been suggested as a prominent tool for investigating the geometrical and physical properties of the emissions from active galactic nuclei (AGN). The successfu…

Detection of X-ray Polarization from the Blazar 1ES 1959+650 with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer

Manel Errando, Ioannis Liodakis, Alan P. Marscher +142

Observations of linear polarization in the 2-8 keV energy range with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) explore the magnetic field geometry and dynamics of the regions g…

Observations of Low and Intermediate Spectral Peak Blazars with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer

Herman L. Marshall, Ioannis Liodakis, Alan P. Marscher +145

We present X-ray polarimetry observations from the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) of three low spectral peak and one intermediate spectral peak blazars, namely 3C 273, 3…

The Polarized Cosmic Hand: IXPE Observations of PSR B1509-58/MSH 15-52

Roger W. Romani, Josephine Wong, Niccolo Di Lalla +99

We describe IXPE polarization observations of the Pulsar Wind Nebula (PWN) MSH15-52, the `Cosmic Hand'. We find X-ray polarization across the PWN, with B field vectors generally al…

Magnetic structures and turbulence in SN 1006 revealed with imaging X-ray polarimetry

Ping Zhou, Dmitry Prokhorov, Riccardo Ferrazzoli +99

Young supernova remnants (SNRs) strongly modify surrounding magnetic fields, which in turn play an essential role in accelerating cosmic rays (CRs). X-ray polarization measurements…

IXPE and multi-wavelength observations of blazar PG 1553+113 reveal an orphan optical polarization swing

Riccardo Middei, Matteo Perri, Simonetta Puccetti +119

The lower energy peak of the spectral energy distribution of blazars has commonly been ascribed to synchrotron radiation from relativistic particles in the jets. Despite the consen…
