X-Ray Polarized View on the Accretion Geometry in the X-Ray Binary Circinus X-1
John Rankin, Fabio La Monaca, Alessandro Di Marco +101
Cir X-1 is a neutron star X-ray binary characterized by strong variations in flux during its eccentric 16.6 days orbit. There are also strong variations in the spectral state…
Pulsar-wind-nebula-powered Galactic center X-ray filament G0.13-0.11: Proof of the synchrotron nature by IXPE
Eugene Churazov, Ildar Khabibullin, Thibault Barnouin +103
We report the discovery of X-ray polarization from the X-ray-bright filament. G0.13-0.11 in the Galactic center (GC) region. This filament features a bright, hard X-ray source that…
X-ray Polarization of the Eastern Lobe of SS 433
Philip Kaaret, Riccardo Ferrazzoli, Stefano Silvestri +103
How astrophysical systems translate the kinetic energy of bulk motion into the acceleration of particles to very high energies is a pressing question. SS 433 is a microquasar that…
Multi-wavelength observations of the lensed quasar PKS 1830211 during the 2019 -ray flare
S. Vercellone, I. Donnarumma, C. Pittori +32
PKS 1830211 is a -ray emitting, high-redshift (z ), lensed flat-spectrum radio quasar. During the period mid-February to mid-April 2019, this source underw…
The High Energy X-ray Probe (HEX-P): Studying Extreme Accretion with Ultraluminous X-ray Sources
Matteo Bachetti, Matthew J. Middleton, Ciro Pinto +25
Ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs) represent an extreme class of accreting compact objects: from the identification of some of the accretors as neutron stars to the detection of po…
X-ray Polarization Reveals the Precessions of the Neutron Star in Hercules X-1
Jeremy Heyl, Victor Doroshenko, Denis González-Caniulef +100
In an accreting X-ray pulsar, a neutron star accretes matter from a stellar companion through an accretion disk. The high magnetic field of the rotating neutron star disrupts the i…
