Optical polarimetry of the accreting black hole X-ray binary Swift J1727.81613 over the state transition and radio ejections
Anagha P. Nitindala, Alexandra Veledina, Vadim Kravtsov +7
We present the first optical () polarimetric observations of Swift J1727.81613 during its 2023--2024 outburst. Observations were performed during the X-ray hard-to-soft sta…
Optical and near-infrared polarization of the black hole X-ray binary A0620-00 in quiescence
Vadim Kravtsov, Alexandra Veledina, Andrei V. Berdyugin +12
We present simultaneous high-precision optical polarimetric and near-infrared (NIR) to ultraviolet (UV) photometric observations of low-mass black hole X-ray binary A0620-00 in the…
Variability of X-ray polarization of Cyg X-1
Vadim Kravtsov, Anastasiia Bocharova, Alexandra Veledina +31
We present the results of a three-year X-ray, optical, and radio polarimetric monitoring campaign of the prototypical black hole X-ray binary Cyg X-1, conducted from 2022 to 2024.…
Recovery of the X-ray polarisation of Swift J1727.81613 after the soft-to-hard spectral transition
J. Podgorný, J. Svoboda, M. DovÄiak +34
We report on the detection of X-ray polarisation in the black-hole X-ray binary Swift J1727.81613 during its dim hard spectral state by the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (I…
Unveiling blazar synchrotron emission: a multiwavelength polarimetric study of HSP and LSP populations
Sara Capecchiacci, Ioannis Liodakis, Riccardo Middei +96
Polarimetric properties of blazars allow us to put constraints on the acceleration mechanisms that fuel their powerful jets. By studying the multiwavelength polarimetric behaviour…
IXPE Observations of the Blazar Mrk 501 in 2022: A Multiwavelength View
L. Lisalda, E. Gau, H. Krawczynski +157
The blazar Markarian 501 (Mrk 501) was observed on three occasions over a 4-month period between 2022 March and 2022 July with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE). In thi…
