A soft and transient ultraluminous X-ray source with 6-h modulation in the NGC 300 galaxy

A. Sacchi, P. Esposito, D. de Martino +13

We investigate the nature of CXOU J005440.5-374320 (J0054), a peculiar bright ( erg/s) and soft X-ray transient in the spiral galaxy NGC 300 with a 6-hour per…

The detection of polarized x-ray emission from the magnetar 1E 2259+586

Jeremy Heyl, Roberto Taverna, Roberto Turolla +98

We report on IXPE, NICER and XMM-Newton observations of the magnetar 1E 2259+586. We find that the source is significantly polarized at about or above 20% for all phases except for…

IXPE and XMM-Newton observations of the Soft Gamma Repeater SGR 1806-20

Roberto Turolla, Roberto Taverna, Gian Luca Israel +96

Recent observations with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) of two anomalous X-ray pulsars provided evidence that X-ray emission from magnetar sources is strongly polari…

The first 7 months of the 2020 X-ray outburst of the magnetar SGR J1935+2154

Alice Borghese, Francesco Coti Zelati, Gian Luca Israel +10

The magnetar SGR J1935+2154 underwent a new active episode on 2020 April 27-28, when a forest of hundreds of X-ray bursts and a large enhancement of the persistent flux were detect…

UV and X-ray pulse amplitude variability in the transitional millisecond pulsar PSR J1023+0038

A. Miraval Zanon, F. Ambrosino, F. Coti Zelati +7

The transitional millisecond pulsar PSR\,J1023+0038 is the first millisecond pulsar discovered to emit UV and optical pulses. Here we present the results of the UV and X-ray phase-…

Investigating the nature of the ultraluminous X-ray sources in the galaxy NGC 925

Chiara Salvaggio, Anna Wolter, Fabio Pintore +7

Variability is a powerful tool to investigate properties of X-ray binaries (XRB), in particular for Ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs) that are mainly detected in the X-ray band. F…
