Peering through the dip: IXPE unveils the extended scattering environment of GX 13+1
Alessandro Di Marco, Fabio La Monaca, Luigi Stella +17
Neutron star low-mass X-ray binaries feature complex accretion geometries, often including an accretion disk corona or disk winds. Here, a study of the highly inclined dipping sour…
Polarization of reflected X-ray emission from the Sgr A molecular complex: multiple flares, multiple sources?
Ildar Khabibullin, Eugene Churazov, Riccardo Ferrazzoli +100
The extended X-ray emission observed in the direction of several molecular clouds in the central molecular zone of our Galaxy exhibits spectral and temporal properties consistent w…
Super-Eddington Accretion Geometry: a Remarkable Stability of the Hidden Ultraluminous X-Ray Source Cygnus X-3
Romana Mikušincová, Alexandra Veledina, Fabio Muleri +112
We report on the average and orbital phase-resolved polarization of Cyg X-3 in the hard state during the 2023 Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) observational campaign. We f…
X-ray Polarization Detection of the Pulsar Wind Nebula in G21.5-0.9 with IXPE
Niccolò Di Lalla, Nicola Omodei, Niccolò Bucciantini +98
We present the X-ray polarization observation of G21.5-0.9, a young Galactic supernova remnant (SNR), conducted with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) in October 2023,…
High optical to X-ray polarization ratio reveals Compton scattering in BL Lacertae's jet
Ivan Agudo, Ioannis Liodakis, Jorge Otero-Santos +147
Blazars, supermassive black hole systems (SMBHs) with highly relativistic jets aligned with the line of sight, are the most powerful long-lived emitters of electromagnetic emission…
X-ray Polarization of the High-Synchrotron-Peak BL Lacertae Object 1ES 1959+650 during Intermediate and High X-ray Flux States
Luigi Pacciani, Dawoon E. Kim, Riccardo Middei +97
We report the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) polarimetric and simultaneous multiwavelength observations of the high-energy-peaked BL Lacertae (HBL) object 1ES 1959+650,…
