A deep ensemble approach to X-ray polarimetry

CoRR, 2021
X-ray polarimetry will soon open a new window on the high energy universe with the launch of NASA's Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE). Polarimeters are currently limited by their track reconstruction algorithms, which typically use linear estimators and do not consider individual event quality.

X-ray polarimetry of X-ray pulsar X Persei: another orthogonal rotator?

Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2023
ABSTRACT X Persei is a persistent low-luminosity X-ray pulsar of period of ≈ 835 s in a Be binary system. The field strength at the neutron star surface is not known precisely, but indirect signs indicate a magnetic field above 1013 G, which makes the object one of the most magnetized known X-ray pulsars.

Searching for Axion-Like Particles with X-ray Polarimeters

Galaxies, 2018
X-ray telescopes are an exceptional tool for searching for new fundamental physics. In particular, X-ray observations have already placed world-leading bounds on the interaction between photons and axion-like particles (ALPs).

An X-ray polarimeter for hard X-ray optics [PDF]

, 2006
Development of multi-layer optics makes feasible the use of X-ray telescope at energy up to 60-80 keV: in this paper we discuss the extension of photoelectric polarimeter based on Micro Pattern Gas Chamber to high energy X-rays.

Galactic X-ray Polarimetry and High-Resolution X-ray Spectroscopy [PDF]

Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1973
Stellar X-ray spectroscopy and polarimetry are discussed in terms of the source parameters that can be determined through such studies and in terms of the constraints that these studies will place on theoretical models. The spectroscopic and polarimetric results that have been obtained to date are reviewed.

The enhanced X-ray Timing and Polarimetry mission—eXTP [PDF]

Science China Physics, Mechanics & Astronomy, 2018
In this paper we present the enhanced X-ray Timing and Polarimetry mission - eXTP. eXTP is a space science mission designed to study fundamental physics under extreme conditions of density, gravity and magnetism. The mission aims at determining the equation of state of matter at supra-nuclear density, measuring effects of QED, and understanding the ...
