The X-ray Polarization Probe mission concept

Keith Jahoda, Henric Krawczynski, Fabian Kislat +100

The X-ray Polarization Probe (XPP) is a second generation X-ray polarimeter following up on the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE). The XPP will offer true broadband polarim…

The discovery of weak coherent pulsations in the ultraluminous X-ray source NGC 1313 X-2

R. Sathyaprakash, T. P. Roberts, D. J. Walton +8

We report the detection of weak pulsations from the archetypal ultraluminous X-ray source (ULX) NGC 1313 X-2. Acceleration searches reveal sinusoidal pulsations in segments of two…

Spectral and Timing Properties of IGR J17091-3624 in the Rising Hard State During its 2016 Outburst

Yanjun Xu, Javier A. Garcia, Felix Fuerst +8

We present a spectral and timing study of the NuSTAR and Swift observations of the black hole candidate IGR J17091-3624 in the hard state during its outburst in 2016. Disk reflecti…

An elevation of 0.1 light-seconds for the optical jet base in an accreting Galactic black hole system

Poshak Gandhi, Matteo Bachetti, Vik S. Dhillon +25

Relativistic plasma jets are observed in many accreting black holes. According to theory, coiled magnetic fields close to the black hole accelerate and collimate the plasma, leadin…

ULX spectra revisited: Accreting, highly magnetized neutron stars as the engines of ultraluminous X-ray sources

Filippos Koliopanos, Georgios Vasilopoulos, Olivier Godet +3

Aims: In light of recent discoveries of pulsating ULXs and recently introduced models, that propose neutron stars (NSs) as the central engines of ULXs, we revisit the (XMM-Newton a…

Single-dish and VLBI observations of Cygnus X-3 during the 2016 giant flare episode

E. Egron, A. Pellizzoni, M. Giroletti +34

In September 2016, the microquasar Cygnus X-3 underwent a giant radio flare, which was monitored for 6 days with the Medicina Radio Astronomical Station and the Sardinia Radio Tele…
