Cosmoglobe DR1 results. II. Constraints on isotropic cosmic birefringence from reprocessed WMAP and Planck LFI data

J. R. Eskilt, D. J. Watts, R. Aurlien +28

Cosmic birefringence is a parity-violating effect that might have rotated the plane of linearly polarized light of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) by an angle since its e…

Cosmoglobe DR1 results. I. Improved Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe maps through Bayesian end-to-end analysis

D. J. Watts, A. Basyrov, J. R. Eskilt +30

We present Cosmoglobe Data Release 1, which implements the first joint analysis of WMAP and Planck LFI time-ordered data, processed within a single Bayesian end-to-end framework. T…

A Possible Magnetar Nature for IGR J16358-4726

S. K. Patel, J. Zurita, M. Del Santo +10

We present detailed spectral and timing analysis of the hard x-ray transient IGR J16358-4726 using multi-satellite archival observations. A study of the source flux time history ov…

Gamma-Ray Observations of a Giant Flare from The Magnetar SGR 1806-20

D. M. Palmer, S. Barthelmy, N. Gehrels +25

Magnetars comprise two classes of rotating neutron stars (Soft Gamma Repeaters (SGRs) and Anomalous X-ray Pulsars), whose X-ray emission is powered by an ultrastrong magnetic field…

Chandra HRC Localization of the Low Mass X-ray Binaries X1624-490 and X1702-429: The Infrared Counterparts

S. Wachter, J. W. Wellhouse, S. K. Patel +3

We report on the precise localization of the low mass X-ray binaries X1624-490 and X1702-429 with the Chandra HRC-I. We determine the best positions to be 16:28:02.825 -49:11:54.61…

Massive star-formation rates of gamma-ray burst host galaxies: an unobscured view in X-rays

D. Watson, J. Hjorth, P. Jakobsson +3

The hard X-ray (2-10keV) luminosity of a star-forming galaxy tracks its population of high mass X-ray binaries and is essentially unobscured. It is therefore a practically unbiased…
