Characterisation of the stellar wind in Cyg X-1 via modelling of colour-colour diagrams
E. V. Lai, B. De Marco, Y. Cavecchi +11
Cygnus X-1 is a high mass X-ray binary where accretion onto the black hole is mediated by the stellar wind from the blue supergiant companion star HDE 226868. Depending on the posi…
X-ray and optical polarization aligned with the radio jet ejecta in GX 339-4
G. Mastroserio, B. De Marco, M. C. Baglio +27
We present the first X-ray polarization measurements of GX 339-4. IXPE observed this source twice during its 2023-2024 outburst, once in the soft-intermediate state and again durin…
Supermassive Black Hole Winds in X-rays -- SUBWAYS. III. A population study on ultra-fast outflows
V. E. Gianolli, S. Bianchi, P-O Petrucci +44
The detection of blue-shifted absorption lines likely associated with ionized Iron K-shell transitions in the X-ray spectra of many Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) suggests the presen…
Unveiling Energy Pathways in AGN Accretion Flows with the Warm Corona Model for the Soft Excess
D. R. Ballantyne, V. Sudhakar, D. Fairfax +9
The soft excess in active galactic nuclei (AGNs) may arise through a combination of relativistic reflection and the effects of a warm corona at the surface of the accretion disc. D…
