Polarised light from accreting low mass X-ray binaries
F. Capitanio, A. Gnarini, S. Fabiani +5
Thanks to IXPE , the X-ray spectro-polarimeter launched at the end of 2021, X-ray polarimetry has finally become an extraordinary tool in investigating the physics of accretion in…
Highly Significant Detection of X-Ray Polarization from the Brightest Accreting Neutron Star Sco X-1
Fabio La Monaca, Alessandro Di Marco, Juri Poutanen +116
The Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) measured with high significance the X-ray polarization of the brightest Z-source Scorpius X-1, resulting in the nominal 2-8 keV energy…
Discovery of a variable energy-dependent X-ray polarization in the accreting neutron star GX 5-1
Sergio Fabiani, Fiamma Capitanio, Rosario Iaria +116
We report on the coordinated observations of the neutron star low-mass X-ray binary (NS-LMXB) \gx in X-rays (IXPE, NICER, Nustar and INTEGRAL), optical (REM and LCO), near-infrared…
Discovery of strongly variable X-ray polarization in the neutron star low-mass X-ray binary transient XTE J1701462
Massimo Cocchi, Andrea Gnarini, Sergio Fabiani +105
After about 16 years since its first outburst, the transient neutron star low-mass X-ray binary XTE J1701462 turned on again in September 2022, allowing for the first study of i…
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…
First detection of X-ray polarization from the accreting neutron star 4U 1820-303
Alessandro Di Marco, Fabio La Monaca, Juri Poutanen +116
This paper reports the first detection of polarization in the X-rays for atoll-source 4U 1820-303, obtained with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) at 99.999% confidence…
