Accretion geometry of the neutron star low mass X-ray binary Cyg X-2 from X-ray polarization measurements
R. Farinelli, S. Fabiani, J. Poutanen +92
We report spectro-polarimetric results of an observational campaign of the bright neutron star low-mass X-ray binary Cyg X-2 simultaneously observed by IXPE, NICER and INTEGRAL. Co…
Mapping the circumnuclear regions of the Circinus galaxy with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer
F. Ursini, A. Marinucci, G. Matt +94
We report on the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) observation of the closest and X-ray brightest Compton-thick active galactic nucleus (AGN), the Circinus galaxy. We find…
Supermassive Black Hole Winds in X-rays -- SUBWAYS. I. Ultra-fast outflows in QSOs beyond the local Universe
G. A. Matzeu, M. Brusa, G. Lanzuisi +48
We present a new X-ray spectroscopic study of luminous () active galactic nuclei (AGNs) at intermed…
The X-ray polarimetry view of the accreting pulsar Cen X-3
Sergey S. Tsygankov, Victor Doroshenko, Juri Poutanen +95
Cen X-3 is the first X-ray pulsar discovered 50 years ago. Radiation from such objects is expected to be highly polarized due to birefringence of plasma and vacuum associated with…
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…
