Gamma-Ray Polarimetry of the Crab Pulsar Observed by POLAR
Han-Cheng Li, Nicolas Produit, Shuang-Nan Zhang +15
The X/ ray polarimetry of the Crab pulsar/nebula is believed to hold crucial information on their emission models. In the past, several missions have shown evidence of polarized…
Polarization measurements of the Crab Pulsar with POLAR
Hancheng Li, POLAR Collaboration
POLAR is a dedicated Gamma-Ray Burst polarimeter making use of Compton-scattering which took data from the second Chinese spacelab, the Tiangong-2 from September 2016 to April 2017…
The POLAR Gamma-Ray Burst Polarization Catalog
Merlin Kole, Nicolas De Angelis, Francesco Berlato +18
Despite over 50 years of research, many open questions remain about the origin and nature of GRBs. Polarization measurements of the prompt emission of these extreme phenomena have…
Phase-resolved gamma-ray spectroscopy of the Crab pulsar observed by POLAR
Han-Cheng Li, Neal Gauvin, Ming-Yu Ge +15
The POLAR detector is a space based Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) polarimeter sensitive in the 15-500 keV energy range. Apart from its main scientific goal as a Gamma-Ray Burst polarimeter…
Detailed polarization measurements of the prompt emission of five Gamma-Ray Bursts
Shuang-Nan Zhang, Merlin Kole, Tian-Wei Bao +37
Gamma-ray bursts are the strongest explosions in the Universe since the Big Bang, believed to be produced either in forming black holes at the end of massive star evolution or merg…
Observation data pre-processing and scientific data products generation of POLAR
Zheng-Heng Li, Jian-Chao Sun, Li-Ming Song +8
POLAR is a compact space-borne detector initially designed to measure the polarization of hard X-rays emitted from Gamma-Ray Bursts in the energy range 50-500keV. This instrument w…
In-Orbit Instrument Performance Study and Calibration for POLAR Polarization Measurements
Zhengheng Li, Merlin Kole, Jianchao Sun +30
POLAR is a compact space-borne detector designed to perform reliable measurements of the polarization for transient sources like Gamma-Ray Bursts in the energy range 50-500keV. The…
A Low-latency Pipeline for GRB Light Curve and Spectrum using Fermi/GBM Near Real-time Data
Yi Zhao, Binbin Zhang, Shaolin Xiong +15
Rapid response and short time latency are very important for Time Domain Astronomy, such as the observations of Gamma-ray Bursts (GRBs) and electromagnetic (EM) counterparts of gra…
In-flight energy calibration of the space-borne Compton polarimeter POLAR
Hualin Xiao, Wojtek Hajdas, Bobing Wu +39
POLAR is a compact wide-field space-borne detector for precise measurements of the linear polarisation of hard X-rays emitted by transient sources in the energy range from 50 keV t…
Gain factor and parameter settings optimization of the new gamma-ray burst polarimeter POLAR
X. F. Zhang, W. Hajdas, H. L. Xiao +38
As a space-borne detector POLAR is designed to conduct hard X-ray polarization measurements of gamma-ray bursts on the statistically significant sample of events and with an unprec…
