X-Ray Polarization from the Atoll 4U 1735-44 Suggests a Low Inclination
M. A. DÃaz 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…
Discovery of Strong Energy-Dependent X-ray Polarization in the Intermediate State of GS 1354-64
Swati Ravi, Lorenzo Marra, James F. Steiner +20
We report the discovery of significant X-ray polarization from the dynamically confirmed black hole X-ray binary (BHXB) GS 1354-64 during its 2025-2026 outburst, obtained with the…
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…
The Advanced X-ray Imaging Satellite (AXIS) Community Science Book
Michael Koss, Nafisa Aftab, Steven W. Allen +395
The AXIS Community Science Book represents the collective effort of 592 scientists worldwide to define the transformative science enabled by the Advanced X-ray Imaging Satellite (A…
First X-ray and radio polarimetry of the neutron star low-mass X-ray binary GX 17+2
Unnati Kashyap, Thomas J. Maccarone, Eliot C. Pattie +5
We report the first polarimetric results of the neutron star (NS) low-mass X-ray binary (LMXB) Z-source GX 17+2 using the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) and the Very Lar…
What's the Buzz About GX 13+1? Constraining Coronal Geometry with QUEEN-BEE: A Bayesian Nested Sampling Framework for X-ray Polarization Rotation Analysis
Swati Ravi, Mason Ng, Herman L. Marshall +1
Observations from the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) have revealed electric vector position angle (EVPA) rotation in several neutron star low-mass X-ray binaries, includ…
