Polarization properties of the weakly magnetized neutron star X-ray binary GS 1826-238 in the high soft state
Fiamma Capitanio, Sergio Fabiani, Andrea Gnarini +94
The launch of the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) on 2021 December 9 has opened a new window in X-ray astronomy. We report here the results of the first IXPE observation…
An Optical Study of the Black Widow Population
D. Kandel, Roger W. Romani
The optical study of the heated substellar companions of `Black Widow' (BW) millisecond pulsars (MSP) provides unique information on the MSP particle and radiation output and on th…
X-ray Polarization Observations of BL Lacertae
Riccardo Middei, Ioannis Liodakis, Matteo Perri +143
Blazars are a class of jet-dominated active galactic nuclei with a typical double-humped spectral energy distribution. It is of common consensus the Synchrotron emission to be resp…
Observations of 4U 1626-67 with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer
Herman L. Marshall, Mason Ng, Daniele Rogantini +91
We present measurements of the polarization of X-rays in the 2-8 keV band from the pulsar in the ultracompact low mass X-ray binary 4U1626-67 using data from the Imaging X-ray Pola…
A Quarter Century of Guitar Nebula/Filament Evolution
Martijn de Vries, Roger W. Romani, Oleg Kargaltsev +6
We have collected a new deep {\it Chandra X-ray Observatory} ({\it CXO}) exposure of PSR B2224+65 and the `Guitar Nebula', mapping the complex X-ray structure. This is accompanied…
The X-ray Polarization View of Mrk~421 in an Average Flux State as Observed by the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer
Laura Di Gesu, Immacolata Donnarumma, Fabrizio Tavecchio +100
Particle acceleration mechanisms in supermassive black hole jets, such as shock acceleration, magnetic reconnection, and turbulence, are expected to have observable signatures in t…
