IXPE observation confirms a high spin in the accreting black hole 4U 1957+115
L. Marra, M. Brigitte, N. Rodriguez Cavero +113
We present the results of the first X-ray polarimetric observation of the low-mass X-ray binary 4U 1957+115, performed with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer in May 2023. The…
X-ray polarimetry and spectroscopy of the neutron star low-mass X-ray binary GX 9+9: an in-depth study with IXPE and NuSTAR
F. Ursini, R. Farinelli, A. Gnarini +101
We report on a comprehensive analysis of simultaneous X-ray polarimetric and spectral data of the bright atoll source GX 9+9 with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) and…
The X-ray polarisation of the Seyfert 1 galaxy IC 4329A
A. Ingram, M. Ewing, A. Marinucci +105
We present an X-ray spectro-polarimetric analysis of the bright Seyfert galaxy IC 4329A. The Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) observed the source for ~500 ks, supported by…
X-ray polarimetry of X-ray pulsar X Persei: another orthogonal rotator?
A. A. Mushtukov, S. S. Tsygankov, J. Poutanen +103
X Persei is a persistent low-luminosity X-ray pulsar of period of 835 s in a Be binary system. The field strength at the neutron star surface is not known precisely, but indi…
Fermi-GBM Discovery of GRB 221009A: An Extraordinarily Bright GRB from Onset to Afterglow
S. Lesage, P. Veres, M. S. Briggs +136
We report the discovery of GRB 221009A, the highest flux gamma-ray burst ever observed by the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM). This GRB has continuous prompt emission lasting m…
Uncovering the geometry of the hot X-ray corona in the Seyfert galaxy NGC4151 with IXPE
V. E. Gianolli, D. E. Kim, S. Bianchi +106
We present an X-ray spectro-polarimetric analysis of the bright Seyfert galaxy NGC4151. The source has been observed with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) for 700 ks,…
