Variability of X-ray polarization of Cyg X-1
Vadim Kravtsov, Anastasiia Bocharova, Alexandra Veledina +31
We present the results of a three-year X-ray, optical, and radio polarimetric monitoring campaign of the prototypical black hole X-ray binary Cyg X-1, conducted from 2022 to 2024.…
Comprehensive UV and Optical spectral analysis of Cygnus X-1: Stellar and wind parameters, abundances, and evolutionary implications
V. Ramachandran, A. A. C. Sander, L. M. Oskinova +7
We present a comprehensive analysis of Cyg X-1, utilizing archival high-resolution UV and optical spectra in conjunction with sophisticated atmospheric models. Notably, this is the…
X-ray polarization of accreting black holes: Cyg X-1 and Swift J1727.8-1613
M. Brigitte, J. Svoboda
The Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer is an X-ray observatory measuring the X-ray polarization in the 2-8 keV energy range. Highly sensitive to the system's geometry, X-ray polari…
The X-ray Integral Field Unit at the end of the Athena reformulation phase
Philippe Peille, Didier Barret, Edoardo Cucchetti +279
The Athena mission entered a redefinition phase in July 2022, driven by the imperative to reduce the mission cost at completion for the European Space Agency below an acceptable ta…
Disentangling the stellar atmosphere and the focused wind in different accretion states of Cygnus X-1
M. Brigitte, P. Hadrava, B. Kubátová +8
In high-mass X-ray binaries (HMXBs), the compact object accretes the strong stellar wind of an O-B supergiant companion star. X-ray flux variations alter the stellar wind's ionizat…
