FOXSI-2: Upgrades of the Focusing Optics X-ray Solar Imager for its Second Flight

Steven Christe, Lindsay Glesener, Camilo Buitrago-Casas +12

The Focusing Optics X-ray Solar Imager (FOXSI) sounding rocket payload flew for the second time on 2014 December 11. To enable direct Hard X-Ray (HXR) imaging spectroscopy, FOXSI m…

The Polarized Cosmic Hand: IXPE Observations of PSR B1509-58/MSH 15-52

Roger W. Romani, Josephine Wong, Niccolo Di Lalla +99

We describe IXPE polarization observations of the Pulsar Wind Nebula (PWN) MSH15-52, the `Cosmic Hand'. We find X-ray polarization across the PWN, with B field vectors generally al…

First X-ray polarization measurement confirms the low black-hole spin in LMC X-3

Jiří Svoboda, Michal Dovčiak, James F. Steiner +109

X-ray polarization is a powerful tool to investigate the geometry of accreting material around black holes, allowing independent measurements of the black hole spin and orientation…

Magnetic structures and turbulence in SN 1006 revealed with imaging X-ray polarimetry

Ping Zhou, Dmitry Prokhorov, Riccardo Ferrazzoli +99

Young supernova remnants (SNRs) strongly modify surrounding magnetic fields, which in turn play an essential role in accelerating cosmic rays (CRs). X-ray polarization measurements…
