Polarization constraints on the X-ray corona in Seyfert Galaxies: MCG-05-23-16

A. Marinucci, F. Muleri, M. Dovčiak +97

We report on the first observation of a radio-quiet Active Galactic Nucleus (AGN) using polarized X-rays: the Seyfert 1.9 galaxy MCG-05-23-16. This source was pointed with the Imag…

Limits on X-ray Polarization at the Core of Centaurus A as Observed with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer

Steven R. Ehlert, Riccardo Ferrazzoli, Andrea Marinucci +95

We present measurements of the polarization of X-rays in the band from the nucleus of the radio galaxy Centaurus A (Cen A), using a 100ks observation…

The Imaging X-Ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE): Pre-Launch

Martin C. Weisskopf, Paolo Soffitta, Luca Baldini +155

Scheduled to launch in late 2021, the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) is a NASA Small Explorer Mission in collaboration with the Italian Space Agency (ASI). The mission w…

The Discovery of a Low-Luminosity SPIRAL DRAGN

D. D. Mulcahy, M. Y. Mao, I. Mitsuishi +7

Standard galaxy formation models predict that large-scale double-lobed radio sources, known as DRAGNs, will always be hosted by elliptical galaxies. In spite of this, in recent yea…

The Quiescent Intracluster Medium in the Core of the Perseus Cluster

Hitomi Collaboration, Felix Aharonian, Hiroki Akamatsu +213

Clusters of galaxies are the most massive gravitationally-bound objects in the Universe and are still forming. They are thus important probes of cosmological parameters and a host…

Hitomi constraints on the 3.5 keV line in the Perseus galaxy cluster

Hitomi Collaboration, Felix A. Aharonian, Hiroki Akamatsu +215

High-resolution X-ray spectroscopy with Hitomi was expected to resolve the origin of the faint unidentified E=3.5 keV emission line reported in several low-resolution studies of va…
