The IXPE Instrument Calibration Equipment
Fabio Muleri, Raffaele Piazzolla, Alessandro Di Marco +28
The Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer is a mission dedicated to the measurement of X-ray polarization from tens of astrophysical sources belonging to different classes. Expected t…
X-ray spectra, light-curves and SEDs of blazars frequently observed by Swift
P. Giommi, M. Perri, M. Capalbi +19
Blazars research is one of the hot topics of contemporary extra-galactic astrophysics. That is because these sources are the most abundant type of extra-galactic gamma-ray sources…
The Instrument of the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer
Paolo Soffitta, Luca Baldini, Ronaldo Bellazzini +78
While X-ray Spectroscopy, Timing and Imaging have improved verymuch since 1962, when the first astronomical non-solar source was discovered, especially with the launch of Newton/X-…
Swift/UVOT follow-up of Gravitational Wave Alerts in the O3 era
S. R. Oates, F. E. Marshall, A. A. Breeveld +41
In this paper, we report on the observational performance of the Swift Ultra-violet/Optical Telescope (UVOT) in response to the Gravitational Wave alerts announced by the Advanced…
Design, Construction, and Test of the Gas Pixel Detectors for the IXPE Mission
L. Baldini, M. Barbanera, R. Bellazzini +91
Due to be launched in late 2021, the Imaging X-Ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) is a NASA Small Explorer mission designed to perform polarization measurements in the 2-8 keV band, c…
The X-ray emission of the Seyfert 2 galaxy MCG-01-24-12
R. Middei, G. A. Matzeu, S. Bianchi +7
We present a detailed X-ray spectral analysis of the nearby Seyfert 2 galaxy MCG-01-24-12 based on a multi-epoch data set. Data have been taken with different X-ray satellites, nam…
