Re-detection and a Possible Time Variation of Soft X-ray Polarisation from the Crab
Hua Feng, Hong Li, Xiangyun Long +24
The Crab nebula is so far the only celestial object with a statistically significant detection in soft x-ray polarimetry, a window that has not been explored in astronomy since the…
Timing analysis of the black hole candidate EXO 1846-031 with Insight-HXMT monitoring
He-Xin Liu, Yue Huang, Guang-Cheng Xiao +118
We present the observational results from a detailed timing analysis of the black hole candidate EXO 1846-031 during its outburst in 2019 with the observations of Insight-HXMT, NIC…
In-orbit Operation and Performance of the CubeSat Soft X-ray Polarimeter PolarLight
Hong Li, Xiangyun Long, Hua Feng +21
PolarLight is a compact soft X-ray polarimeter onboard a CubeSat, which was launched into a low-Earth orbit on October 29, 2018. In March 2019, PolarLight started full operation, a…
HXMT Identification of a non-thermal X-ray burst from SGR J1935+2154 and with FRB 200428
C. K. Li, L. Lin, S. L. Xiong +117
Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are short pulses observed in radio band from cosmological distances. One class of models invoke soft gamma-ray repeaters (SGRs), or magnetars, as the sourc…
The Background Model of the Medium Energy X-ray telescope of Insight-HXMT
Cheng-Cheng Guo, Jin-Yuan Liao, Shu Zhang +26
The Medium Energy X-ray Telescope (ME) is one of the main payloads of the Hard X-ray Modulation Telescope (dubbed as Insight-HXMT). The background of Insight-HXMT/ME is mainly caus…
