A magnetar giant flare in the nearby starburst galaxy M82
Sandro Mereghetti, Michela Rigoselli, Ruben Salvaterra +32
Giant flares, short explosive events releasing up to 10 erg of energy in the gamma-ray band in less than one second, are the most spectacular manifestation of magnetars, you…
Swift, NuSTAR, and INTEGRAL observations of the symbiotic X-ray binary IGR J16194-2810
E. Bozzo, P. Romano, C. Ferrigno +1
We report on a simultaneous observational campaign with both Swift/XRT and NuSTAR targeting the symbiotic X-ray binary IGR J16194-2810. The main goal of the campaign was to investi…
Discovery of a variable energy-dependent X-ray polarization in the accreting neutron star GX 5-1
Sergio Fabiani, Fiamma Capitanio, Rosario Iaria +116
We report on the coordinated observations of the neutron star low-mass X-ray binary (NS-LMXB) \gx in X-rays (IXPE, NICER, Nustar and INTEGRAL), optical (REM and LCO), near-infrared…
Energy-resolved pulse profiles of accreting pulsars: Diagnostic tools for spectral features
Carlo Ferrigno, Antonino D'Aì, Elena Ambrosi
We introduce a method for extracting spectral information from energy-resolved light curves folded at the neutron star spin period (known as pulse profiles) in accreting X-ray bina…
