Identification of Bubble Nebulae around NGC 55 ULX-1 with MUSE Observations

Changxing Zhou, Hua Feng, Fuyan Bian

Using the Multi Unit Spectroscopic Explorer (MUSE) instrument on the Very Large Telescope, we identified three bubble nebulae (denoted as A, B, and C) around an ultraluminous X-ray…

X-ray Polarimetry of the accreting pulsar 1A~0535+262 in the supercritical state with PolarLight

Xiangyun Long, Hua Feng, Hong Li +25

The X-ray pulsar 1A 0535+262 exhibited a giant outburst in 2020, offering us a unique opportunity for X-ray polarimetry of an accreting pulsar in the supercritical state. Measureme…

Bubble in the Whale: Identifying the Optical Counterparts and Extended Nebula for the Ultraluminous X-ray Sources in NGC 4631

Jing Guo, Jianfeng Wu, Hua Feng +9

We present a deep optical imaging campaign on the starburst galaxy NGC 4631 with CFHT/MegaCam. By supplementing the HST/ACS and Chandra/ACIS archival data, we search for the optica…

Monte-Carlo simulations on possible collimation effects of outflows to fan-beamed emission of ultraluminous accreting X-ray pulsars

X. Hou, Y. You, L. Ji +10

Pulsating ultraluminous X-ray sources (PULXs) are accreting pulsars with apparent X-ray luminosity exceeding . We perform Monte-Carlo simulations to inve…
