In-flight performance of the IXPE telescopes
Riccardo Ferrazzoli, Enrico Costa, Sergio Fabiani +15
We present a comprehensive characterization of the on-orbit imaging performance of the three telescopes on board the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE). Each telescope compr…
X-ray Polarization Detection of the Pulsar Wind Nebula in G21.5-0.9 with IXPE
Niccolò Di Lalla, Nicola Omodei, Niccolò Bucciantini +98
We present the X-ray polarization observation of G21.5-0.9, a young Galactic supernova remnant (SNR), conducted with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) in October 2023,…
Mitigating Polarization Leakage in Gas Pixel Detectors through Hybrid Machine Learning and Analytic Event Reconstruction
Nicoló Cibrario, Michela Negro, Raffaella Bonino +18
Spatially resolved polarization measurements of extended X-ray sources are expanding our understanding of the emission mechanisms and magnetic field properties involved. Such measu…
A polarized view of the young Pulsar Wind Nebula 3C 58 with IXPE
N. Bucciantini, J. Wong, R. W. Romani +11
Pulsar Wind nebulae (PWNe), are among the most efficient particle accelerators in the Universe, however understanding the physical conditions and the magnetic geometry in their inn…
X-ray polarization in SN 1006 southwest shows spatial variations and differences with the radio band
Ping Zhou, Patrick Slane, Dmitry Prokhorov +15
We report the detection of a spatial variation of X-ray polarization in the southwestern shell of SN 1006 (SN 1006 SW) using IXPE. The shell has an average X-ray polarization degre…
