Discovery of X-ray Polarization from the Black Hole Transient Swift J1727.8-1613
Alexandra Veledina, Fabio Muleri, Michal Dovciak +113
We report the first detection of the X-ray polarization of the bright transient Swift J1727.8-1613 with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer. The observation was performed at the…
First X-ray polarization measurement confirms the low black-hole spin in LMC X-3
Jiří Svoboda, Michal Dovčiak, James F. Steiner +109
X-ray polarization is a powerful tool to investigate the geometry of accreting material around black holes, allowing independent measurements of the black hole spin and orientation…
Measuring Black Hole Spins through X-ray Reflection Spectroscopy and the Relativistic Precession Model: the case of XTE J1859+226
Gitika Mall, Honghui Liu, Cosimo Bambi +2
The development of techniques to measure accurately black hole spins is crucial to study the physics and astrophysics of these objects. X-ray reflection spectroscopy is currently t…
The RS Oph outburst of 2021 monitored in X-rays with NICER
Marina Orio, Keith Gendreau, Morgan Giese +19
The 2021 outburst of the symbiotic recurrent nova RS Oph was monitored with the Neutron Star Interior Composition Explorer Mission (NICER) in the 0.2-12 keV range from day one afte…
Evaluation of several explanations of the strong X-ray polarization of the black hole X-ray binary 4U 1630-47
Henric Krawczynski, Yajie Yuan, Alexander Y. Chen +6
The Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) observations of the X-ray binary 4U 1630-47 in the high soft state revealed high linear polarization degrees (PDs) rising from 6% at 2…
QPOML: A Machine Learning Approach to Detect and Characterize Quasi-Periodic Oscillations in X-ray Binaries
Thaddaeus J. Kiker, James F. Steiner, Cecilia Garraffo +2
Astronomy is presently experiencing profound growth in the deployment of machine learning to explore large datasets. However, transient quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) which app…
