Spectro-polarimetric study of the black hole X-ray binary Swift J1727.8-1613 in the JED-SAD framework
R. Muhammad, P. -O. Petrucci, W. Zhang +10
Context. Swift J1727.8-1613 is an X-ray binary observed during its 2023-2024 outburst, including bright and dim hard states with similar X-ray polarimetric signatures but fluxes di…
AGN X-ray coronae at high luminosity: A broadband study of RBS 229 and PG 1407+265
Alessandro Leonardo Lai, Stefano Bianchi, Andrea Marinucci +8
Context. The X-ray emission of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) is commonly interpreted as arising from Comptonisation in a hot corona above the accretion disc. A prominent soft X-ray…
EXPO: a quantum leap in fast, wide-band X-ray polarimetry for astrophysics
Paolo Soffitta, Sebastien Guillot, Ian Hutchinson +137
The Enhanced X-ray Polarimetry Observatory (EXPO) is a mission concept proposed to ESA as an M8 candidate, with a prospective launch in 2041. Building on the scientific success of…
Discovery of a star sensitive to the spin of Sgr A*
K. Abd El Dayem, R. Abuter, N. Aimar +85
Residing in the center of the Milky Way, Sgr A* is the closest massive black hole (MBH). Its vicinity has allowed measuring individual stellar orbits around it. The stars act as te…
Using VLTI/GRAVITY+ to determine the identity of a third planet candidate in the PDS 70 system
David Trevascus, Wolfgang Brandner, Olga Balsalobre-Ruza +75
Detections of protoplanets are rare and protoplanetary disk features mischaracterized as planets are common. PDS 70 is one of only two stars known to host multiple confirmed protop…
Is XRISM/Resolve probing a "raining" absorber in Mrk 509?
M. Dadina, V. Missaglia, V. Braito +19
X-ray spectroscopy of AGN offers unique insights into the reprocessing of radiationand gas dynamics near SMBH. The Sey 1 galaxy Mrk 509 is an ideal laboratory for these studies sin…
