X-ray polarization of reflected thermal emission
J. Podgorný, M. DovÄiak, R. Goosmann +5
We compute rest-frame reflection spectra and the corresponding energy-dependent linear polarization degree and angle for (un)polarized single-temperature blackbody spectra impingin…

Polarization properties of thermal accretion disk emission. I. Direct radiation
L. Marra, J. Podgorný, R. Taverna +4
The X-ray polarimetric observing window re-opening is shedding new light on our current understanding of compact accreting sources. This is true, in particular, for stellar-mass bl…
