X-ray Polarimetry of X-ray Pulsars
GalaxiesRadiation from X-ray pulsars (XRPs) was expected to be strongly linearly polarized owing to a large difference in their ordinary and extraordinary mode opacities. The launch of IXPE allowed us to check this prediction. IXPE observed a dozen X-ray pulsars,Juri Poutanen, Sergey S. Tsygankov, Sofia V.

The Astrophysical JournalWe present X-ray polarimetry observations from the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) of three low spectral peak and one intermediate spectral peak blazars, namely 3C 273, 3C 279, 3C 454.3, and S5 0716+714.Herman L.

The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 The radiation from accreting X-ray pulsars was expected to be highly polarized, with some estimates for the polarization degree of up to 80%. However, phase-resolved and energy-resolved polarimetry of X-ray pulsars is required in order to test different ...Sofia V. Forsblom, Juri Poutanen, Sergey S.
