The First X-Ray Polarimetry of an Eclipsing Low-Mass X-Ray Binary: Serendipitous IXPE Observation of AX J1745.6-2901
Romana Mikušincová, Lorenzo Marra, Hemanth Manikantan +38
We present the first X-ray polarimetric measurement of the neutron star low-mass X-ray binary system AX J1745.6-2901 conducted by the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) sate…
XMM-Newton view of pulsating iron fluorescent emission from Centaurus X3
Kinjal Roy, Hemanth Manikantan, Biswajit Paul
Cen X-3 is a bright, high-mass X-ray binary pulsar. We present a pulse phase-resolved X-ray spectral analysis of data from an archival XMM-Newton observation of Cen X-3 taken durin…
The legacy of the IXPE instrument and prospects for the next generation of polarimetric photoelectric X-ray detectors
Hemanth Manikantan, Vladislavs Plesanovs, Paolo Soffitta +15
Imaging X-ray polarimetry with IXPE has demonstrated the scientific potential of the technique but also revealed the need for significant detector upgrades, particularly with the r…
Unveiling the intensity-dependent wake structure of Vela X-1 using MAXI/GSC
Abhisek Tamang, Kinjal Roy, Hemanth Manikantan +2
Context. Vela X-1 is among the earliest discovered high-mass X-ray binary (HMXB) pulsars. In such systems, the companion's stellar wind is strongly affected by ionisation from X-ra…
