Insights into the broad-band emission of the TeV blazar Mrk 501 during the first X-ray polarization measurements
S. Abe, J. Abhir, V. A. Acciari +260
We present the first multi-wavelength study of Mrk 501 including very-high-energy (VHE) gamma-ray observations simultaneous to X-ray polarization measurements from the Imaging X-ra…
IXPE Observations of the Blazar Mrk 501 in 2022: A Multiwavelength View
L. Lisalda, E. Gau, H. Krawczynski +157
The blazar Markarian 501 (Mrk 501) was observed on three occasions over a 4-month period between 2022 March and 2022 July with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE). In thi…
IXPE Observation of the Low-Synchrotron Peaked Blazar S4 0954+65 During An Optical-X-ray Flare
Pouya M. Kouch, Ioannis Liodakis, Francesco Fenu +134
The X-ray polarization observations made possible with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) offer new ways of probing high-energy emission processes in astrophysical jets…
A Two-Week Monitoring Campaign on Mrk 421
W. Peter Maksym, Ioannis Liodakis, M. Lynne Saade +153
X-ray polarization is a unique new probe of the particle acceleration in astrophysical jets made possible through the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer. Here we report on the firs…
