3D Radiative Transfer of Lyman-series Lines with SKIRT
N. Sameshima, A. Lauwers, B. Vander Meulen +4
Context. High-resolution X-ray spectroscopy and polarimetry provided by XRISM and IXPE offer new diagnostics of the geometry and kinematics of photo-ionised plasmas around compact…
XRISM Resolves the Circum-nuclear Environment of NGC 4945
Peter G. Boorman, Poshak Gandhi, Yoshihiro Ueda +31
Compton-thick Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) represent one of the most elusive phases of massive black hole growth, yet are expected to contribute substantially to the Cosmic X-ray B…
Energy-Resolved Limits on Orbital X-ray Polarization Modulation in Cygnus X-1
Sohee Chun, Bert Vander Meulen, Kun Hu +1
Reflection off the companion star and its focused stellar wind is predicted to modulate the X-ray polarization of black hole X-ray binaries at half the orbital period ($P_{\rm orb}…
Predictions for the X-ray polarisation modulation in Cygnus X-1 from reflection off the stellar companion and its wind
Bert Vander Meulen, Kun Hu, Victoria Grinberg +1
Context. Cyg X-1 is one of the brightest X-ray binaries and has been observed multiple times with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE). Recent studies report tentative evi…
High Spectral Resolution X-ray Observations of the Evolved Supermassive Stellar Binary System Carinae - Iron K Band Profile Revealed with XRISM
XRISM Collaboration, Marc Audard, Hisamitsu Awaki +138
The supermassive binary system, Carinae, is experiencing enormous wind-driven mass loss at a rate unparalleled in the rest of the Galaxy. Their wind-wind collision (WWC) contin…
A XRISM view of the iron line complex in NGC 1068: Rethinking the prototypical Compton-thick AGN
S. Bianchi, B. Vander Meulen, E. Bertola +32
We analyze a XRISM/Resolve observation of NGC1068, focusing on the Fe K and Fe K fluorescent lines and on the Fe XXV and Fe XXVI emission complexes. Line centroid energies, i…
X-ray polarisation in AGN circumnuclear media. Polarisation framework and 2D torus models
Bert Vander Meulen, Peter Camps, Djordje Savic +3
Cold gas and dust reprocess the X-ray emission of active galactic nuclei (AGN), producing spectro-polarimetric features in the X-ray band. The recent launch of IXPE allows for obse…
The TNG50-SKIRT Atlas: wavelength dependence of the effective radius
Maarten Baes, Aleksandr Mosenkov, Raymond Kelly +17
Galaxy sizes correlate with many other important properties of galaxies, and the cosmic evolution of galaxy sizes is an important observational diagnostic for constraining galaxy e…
The TNG50-SKIRT Atlas: post-processing methodology and first data release
Maarten Baes, Andrea Gebek, Ana Trcka +17
Galaxy morphology is a powerful diagnostic to assess the realism of cosmological hydrodynamical simulations. Determining the morphology of simulated galaxies requires the generatio…
X-ray radiative transfer in full 3D with SKIRT
Bert Vander Meulen, Peter Camps, Marko Stalevski +1
Models of active galactic nuclei (AGN) suggest that their circumnuclear media are complex with clumps and filaments, while recent observations hint towards polar extended structure…
The Super-Soft Source Phase of the recurrent nova V3890 Sgr
J. -U. Ness, A. P. Beardmore, P. Bezak +9
The 30-year recurrent symbiotic nova V3890 Sgr exploded 2019 August 28 and was observed with multiple X-ray telescopes. An XMM-Newton observation during the SSS phase captured a hi…
