Accounting for systematic uncertainties in the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) detector response
Stefano Silvestri
Launched on December 9, 2021, the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) is the first imaging polarimeter ever flown, providing sensitivity in the 2--8 keV range, and during the…
The IXPE view of GRB 221009A
Michela Negro, Niccoló Di Lalla, Nicola Omodei +108
We present the IXPE observation of GRB 221009A which includes upper limits on the linear polarization degree of both prompt and afterglow emission in the soft X-ray energy band. GR…
Handling Background in IXPE polarimetric data
Alessandro Di Marco, Paolo Soffitta, Enrico Costa +18
IXPE (Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer) is a Small Explorer mission by NASA and ASI, launched on December 9 2021, dedicated to investigating X-ray polarimetry allowing ang…
X-ray polarimetry reveals the magnetic field topology on sub-parsec scales in Tycho's supernova remnant
Riccardo Ferrazzoli, Patrick Slane, Dmitry Prokhorov +97
Supernova remnants are commonly considered to produce most of the Galactic cosmic rays via diffusive shock acceleration. However, many questions about the physical conditions at sh…
Simultaneous space and phase resolved X-ray polarimetry of the Crab Pulsar and Nebula
Niccolò Bucciantini, Riccardo Ferrazzoli, Matteo Bachetti +93
The Crab pulsar and its nebula are among the most studied astrophysical systems, and constitute one of the most promising environments where high energy processes and particle acce…
Focusing effect of bent GaAs crystals for gamma-ray Laue lenses: Monte Carlo and experimental results
E. Virgilli, F. Frontera, P. Rosati +8
We report on results of observation of the focusing effect from the planes (220) of Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) crystals. We have compared the experimental results with the simulations…
