X-ray polarization of the Compton-thin Seyfert galaxy NGC 5506 with IXPE
Daniele Tagliacozzo, Alessandro Leonardo Lai, Andrea Gnarini +14
We report on the observation of the Compton-thin Seyfert galaxy NGC~5506 performed with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE). The observation, with a net observing time of…
X-ray polarization of Z-type neutron star low-mass X-ray binaries -- II. Spectropolarimetric analysis
Andrea Gnarini, Francesco Ursini, Giorgio Matt +8
IXPE has provided for the first time detailed energy- and time-resolved X-ray polarimetry of Z-type neutron star low-mass X-ray binaries (NS-LMXBs) as they move along their color-c…
X-Ray Polarization from the Atoll 4U 1735-44 Suggests a Low Inclination
M. A. Díaz Teodori, A. Bobrikova, A. Gnarini +17
X-ray polarimetry is a new tool capable of probing the geometry of accretion onto weakly magnetized neutron stars. Here we present the first X-ray spectropolarimetric results from…
Magnetic-field Order in the Southwestern Rim of RCW 86 Constrained Using X-Ray Polarimetry
Stefano Silvestri, Dmitry Prokhorov, Jacco Vink +97
RCW 86 is a supernova remnant whose origin has recently been linked to an off-center explosion within a cavity created by its progenitor star. In the southwestern region, the forwa…
XPE and VLT /FORS2 polarimetry challenge the Seyfert-1.9 classification of MCG-05-23-16
Frédéric Marin, Daniele Tagliacozzo, Francesco Ursini +21
We report the third observation of the Seyfert-1.9 active galactic nucleus (AGN) MCG-05-23-16 with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (\textit{IXPE}), together with optical spe…
Discovery of High X-Ray Polarization from the Neutron Star Low-Mass X-Ray Binary Cyg X-2 in the Horizontal Branch
Andrea Gnarini, Swati Ravi, Philip Kaaret +17
We present results from simultaneous X-ray polarimetric and spectroscopic observations of the bright neutron star low-mass X-ray binary Cyg X-2, performed by the Imaging X-ray Pola…
