X-ray Polarization of the Eastern Lobe of SS 433

Philip Kaaret, Riccardo Ferrazzoli, Stefano Silvestri +103

How astrophysical systems translate the kinetic energy of bulk motion into the acceleration of particles to very high energies is a pressing question. SS 433 is a microquasar that…

Mean opacities of a strongly magnetized high temperature plasma

Valery F. Suleimanov, Alexander A. Mushtukov, Igor Ognev +2

Geometry and dynamical structure of emission regions in accreting pulsars are shaped by the interplay between gravity, radiation, and strong magnetic field, which significantly aff…

Observations of 4U 1626-67 with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer

Herman L. Marshall, Mason Ng, Daniele Rogantini +91

We present measurements of the polarization of X-rays in the 2-8 keV band from the pulsar in the ultracompact low mass X-ray binary 4U1626-67 using data from the Imaging X-ray Pola…

The X-ray Polarization View of Mrk~421 in an Average Flux State as Observed by the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer

Laura Di Gesu, Immacolata Donnarumma, Fabrizio Tavecchio +100

Particle acceleration mechanisms in supermassive black hole jets, such as shock acceleration, magnetic reconnection, and turbulence, are expected to have observable signatures in t…

X-ray detection of a nova in the fireball phase

Ole König, Jörn Wilms, Riccardo Arcodia +17

Novae are caused by runaway thermonuclear burning in the hydrogen-rich envelopes of accreting white dwarfs, which results in the envelope to expand rapidly and to eject most of its…

Time-resolved hadronic particle acceleration in the recurrent Nova RS Ophiuchi

H. E. S. S. Collaboration, F. Aharonian, F. Ait Benkhali +171

Recurrent Novae are repeating thermonuclear explosions in the outer layers of white dwarfs, due to the accretion of fresh material from a binary companion. The shock generated by e…
