X-ray Polarization Reveals the Precessions of the Neutron Star in Hercules X-1
Jeremy Heyl, Victor Doroshenko, Denis González-Caniulef +100
In an accreting X-ray pulsar, a neutron star accretes matter from a stellar companion through an accretion disk. The high magnetic field of the rotating neutron star disrupts the i…
The detection of polarized x-ray emission from the magnetar 1E 2259+586
Jeremy Heyl, Roberto Taverna, Roberto Turolla +98
We report on IXPE, NICER and XMM-Newton observations of the magnetar 1E 2259+586. We find that the source is significantly polarized at about or above 20% for all phases except for…
A strong X-ray polarization signal from the magnetar 1RXS J170849.0-400910
Silvia Zane, Roberto Taverna, Denis Gonzalez Caniulef +99
Magnetars are the most strongly magnetized neutron stars, and one of the most promising targets for X-ray polarimetric measurements. We present here the first Imaging X-ray Polarim…
