Anisotropic Particle Transport from a Pulsar Wind Nebula Revealed by Einstein Probe and LHAASO
Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian, Y. X. Bai +339
Pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe) are major cosmic ray accelerators, yet the mechanisms transporting high-energy particles into the interstellar medium remain elusive. Building on the LHA…
Peering through the dip: IXPE unveils the extended scattering environment of GX 13+1
Alessandro Di Marco, Fabio La Monaca, Luigi Stella +17
Neutron star low-mass X-ray binaries feature complex accretion geometries, often including an accretion disk corona or disk winds. Here, a study of the highly inclined dipping sour…
Unchanged X-Ray Polarization During Accretion Dips in the Low Hard State of Cygnus X-1
Yu-shan Ling, Fei Xie, Alessandro Di Marco +2
The study examines X-ray polarization of the black‑hole binary Cygnus X-1 during flux‑decrease events in its low‑hard state and finds that the polarization degree and angle remain…
X-Ray Polarization Study of Pulsar Wind Nebulae with eXTP: Simulation Results and Scientific Prospects
Kuan Liu, Fei Xie, Ming-Yu Ge +2
X-ray polarization observations of pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe) provide crucial insights into magnetic field structures and particle acceleration mechanisms. While the Imaging X-ray…
Magnetic-field Order in the Southwestern Rim of RCW 86 Constrained Using X-Ray Polarimetry
Stefano Silvestri, Dmitry Prokhorov, Jacco Vink +97
RCW 86 is a supernova remnant whose origin has recently been linked to an off-center explosion within a cavity created by its progenitor star. In the southwestern region, the forwa…
Highly Polarized Intrinsic Emission and its Orthogonal Counterpart in Vela X-1
WanYun Wu, Fei Xie, Long Ji +2
Vela X-1 is one of the most archetypal wind-fed X-ray pulsars (XRPs), and the emergence of its orthogonal polarization states reveals distinctive polarimetric properties. Using dat…
