Comparison between the emission torus and the measured toroidal magnetic field for the Crab and Vela nebula

Wei Deng, Fei Xie, Kuan Liu +5

Polarization measurements provide insight into the magnetic field, a critical aspect of the dynamics and emission properties around the compact object. In this paper, we present th…

Analysis of Crab X-ray Polarization using Deeper IXPE Observations

Josephine Wong, Tsunefumi Mizuno, Niccoló Bucciantini +98

We present Crab X-ray polarization measurements using IXPE data with a total exposure of 300ks, three times more than the initial 2022 discovery paper. Polarization is detected in…

Two-Component gamma-ray Emission Spectrum and X-Ray Polarization of the Radio Galaxy Pictor A

Jia-Xuan Li, Xin-Ke Hu, Ji-Shun Lian +6

Pictor A is a -ray emitting radio galaxy and has a bright hotspot called WHS, located 4 arcmin away from the nucleus. In this work, we present an analysis of its 16-year F…

Influence of quantum correction on the Schwarzschild black hole polarized image

Sen Guo, Yu-Xiang Huang, Kuan Liu +2

Using a model of an accretion disk around a Schwarzschild black hole, the analytic estimates for image polarization were derived by Narayan . [Astrophys. J, 102, 912 (2021)…

Revisit the Emission Polarization of the Internal-shock for the blazars' Jet

Hao-Qiang Zhang, Da-Bin Lin, Kuan Liu +1

Recent Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) observations of blazars tend to support the shock model for the X-ray emission, but report a low polarization degree ()…

First detection of polarization in X-rays for PSR B0540-69 and its nebula

Fei Xie, Josephine Wong, Fabio La Monaca +100

We report on X-ray polarization measurements of the extra-galactic Crab-like PSR B0540-69 and its Pulsar Wind Nebula (PWN) in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), using a ~850 ks Imag…
