The first X-ray polarimetric observation of the black hole binary LMC X-1

Kavli Affiliate: Herman L. Marshall | First 5 Authors: Jakub Podgorny, Lorenzo Marra, Fabio Muleri, Nicole Rodriguez Cavero, Ajay Ratheesh | Summary: We report on an X-ray polarimetric observation of the high-mass X-ray binary LMC X-1 in the high/soft state, obtained by the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) in October 2022. The measured polarization is […]

Wearing Masks Implies Refuting Trump?: Towards Target-specific User Stance Prediction across Events in COVID-19 and US Election 2020

Kavli Affiliate: Wei Gao | First 5 Authors: Hong Zhang, Haewoon Kwak, Wei Gao, Jisun An, | Summary: People who share similar opinions towards controversial topics could form an echo chamber and may share similar political views toward other topics as well. The existence of such connections, which we call connected behavior, gives researchers a […]

Learning Optical Flow and Scene Flow with Bidirectional Camera-LiDAR Fusion

Kavli Affiliate: Jia Liu | First 5 Authors: Haisong Liu, Tao Lu, Yihui Xu, Jia Liu, Limin Wang | Summary: In this paper, we study the problem of jointly estimating the optical flow and scene flow from synchronized 2D and 3D data. Previous methods either employ a complex pipeline that splits the joint task into […]

Comparison of Polarized Radiative Transfer Codes used by the EHT Collaboration

Kavli Affiliate: Bradford A. Benson | First 5 Authors: Ben S. Prather, Jason Dexter, Monika Moscibrodzka, Hung-Yi Pu, Thomas Bronzwaer | Summary: Interpretation of resolved polarized images of black holes by the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) requires predictions of the polarized emission observable by an Earth-based instrument for a particular model of the black hole […]

Broadband X-ray timing and spectral characteristics of the accretion-powered millisecond X-ray pulsar MAXI J1816$-$195

Kavli Affiliate: Renxin Xu | First 5 Authors: Zhaosheng Li, Lucien Kuiper, Mingyu Ge, Maurizio Falanga, Juri Poutanen | Summary: We studied the broadband X-ray timing and spectral behaviors of the newly confirmed accreting millisecond X-ray pulsar MAXI J1816$-$195 during its 2022 outburst. We used the data from Insight-HXMT ME/HE, NICER and NuSTAR which cover […]
