Channel Estimation for OTFS Systems With Overspread Doppler Shifts
Preety Priya, Yi Hong, Emanuele Viterbo
In this paper, we consider an orthogonal time frequency space (OTFS) system in time-varying channels with overspread Doppler shifts, typically found in non-terrestrial multi-satell…
XRISM Resolves the Circum-nuclear Environment of NGC 4945
Peter G. Boorman, Poshak Gandhi, Yoshihiro Ueda +31
Compton-thick Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) represent one of the most elusive phases of massive black hole growth, yet are expected to contribute substantially to the Cosmic X-ray B…
Energy-Resolved Limits on Orbital X-ray Polarization Modulation in Cygnus X-1
Sohee Chun, Bert Vander Meulen, Kun Hu +1
Reflection off the companion star and its focused stellar wind is predicted to modulate the X-ray polarization of black hole X-ray binaries at half the orbital period ($P_{\rm orb}…
Predictions for the X-ray polarisation modulation in Cygnus X-1 from reflection off the stellar companion and its wind
Bert Vander Meulen, Kun Hu, Victoria Grinberg +1
Context. Cyg X-1 is one of the brightest X-ray binaries and has been observed multiple times with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE). Recent studies report tentative evi…
A XRISM view of the iron line complex in NGC 1068: Rethinking the prototypical Compton-thick AGN
S. Bianchi, B. Vander Meulen, E. Bertola +32
We analyze a XRISM/Resolve observation of NGC1068, focusing on the Fe K and Fe K fluorescent lines and on the Fe XXV and Fe XXVI emission complexes. Line centroid energies,…
High Spectral Resolution X-ray Observations of the Evolved Supermassive Stellar Binary System Carinae - Iron K Band Profile Revealed with XRISM
XRISM Collaboration, Marc Audard, Hisamitsu Awaki +138
The supermassive binary system, Carinae, is experiencing enormous wind-driven mass loss at a rate unparalleled in the rest of the Galaxy. Their wind-wind collision (WWC) conti…
