The RoboPol sample of optical polarimetric standards

D. Blinov, S. Maharana, F. Bouzelou +34

Optical polarimeters are typically calibrated using measurements of stars with known and stable polarization parameters. However, there is a lack of such stars available across the…

A study of natural frequencies in a dynamic corona-disk system

A. Mastichiadis, M. Petropoulou, N. D. Kylafis

Black-hole X-ray binaries (BHXRBs) in the hard and hard-intermediate spectral (and temporal) states exhibit in their power spectra characteristic frequencies called type-C quasi-pe…

Cyclotron line formation by reflection on the surface of a magnetic neutron star

N. D. Kylafis, J. E. Trümper, N. A. Loudas

Accretion onto magnetic neutron stars results in X-ray spectra that often exhibit a cyclotron resonance scattering feature (CRSF) and, sometimes, higher harmonics of it. Two places…

The Time-Dependent Distribution of Optical Polarization Angle Changes in Blazars

S. Kiehlmann, D. Blinov, I. Liodakis +17

At optical wavelengths, blazar Electric Vector Position Angle (EVPA) rotations linked with gamma-ray activity have been the subject of intense interest and systematic investigation…

Inclination Dependence of The Time-Lag -- Photon-Index Correlation in BHXRBs and its Explanation with a Simple Jet Model

N. Kylafis, P. Reig

Recently, we reported an observational correlation between a) the time-lag of the hard (9 - 15 keV) with respect to the soft (2 - 5 keV) X-ray photons in black-hole X-ray binaries…

Inclination effects on the X-ray emission of Galactic black-hole binaries

P. Reig, N. Kylafis

Galactic black-hole X-ray binaries (BHBs) emit a compact, optically thick, mildly relativistic radio jet when they are in the hard and hard-intermediate states. In these states, BH…
