Polarization Properties of the Weakly Magnetized Neutron Star X-Ray Binary GS 1826–238 in the High Soft State
The launch of the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) on 2021 December 9 has opened a new window in X-ray astronomy. We report here the results of the first IXPE observation of a weakly magnetized neutron star, GS 1826−238, performed on 2022 March 29–31 when the source was in a high soft state...

| description | The launch of the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) on 2021 December 9 has opened a new window in X-ray astronomy. We report here the results of the first IXPE observation of a weakly magnetized neutron star, GS 1826−238, performed on 2022 March 29–31 when the source was in a high soft state. An upper limit (99.73% confidence level) of 1.3% for the linear polarization degree is obtained over the IXPE 2–8 keV energy range. Coordinated INTEGRAL and NICER observations were carried out simultaneously with IXPE. The spectral parameters obtained from the fits to the broadband spectrum were used as inputs for Monte Carlo simulations considering different possible geometries of the X-ray emitting region. Comparing the IXPE upper limit with these simulations, we can put constraints on the geometry and inclination angle of GS 1826–238. |

Coordinated INTEGRAL and NICER observations were carried out simultaneously with IXPE. The spectral parameters obtained from the fits to the broadband spectrum were used as inputs for Monte Carlo simulations considering different possible geometries of the X-ray emitting region. Comparing the IXPE upper limit with these simulations, we can put constraints on the geometry and inclination angle of GS 1826–238.</description><subject>Astronomical polarimetry</subject><subject>Astronomy</subject><subject>Astrophysics</subject><subject>Binary stars</subject><subject>Broadband</subject><subject>Confidence intervals</subject><subject>Constraint modelling</subject><subject>Inclination angle</subject><subject>Linear polarization</subject><subject>Low-mass x-ray binary stars</subject><subject>Magnetic properties</subject><subject>Neutron stars</subject><subject>Polarimetry</subject><subject>Polarization</subject><subject>Sciences of the Universe</subject><subject>Stars & galaxies</subject><subject>X ray binaries</subject><subject>X ray imagery</subject><subject>X ray stars</subject><subject>X-ray astronomy</subject><subject>X-ray binary stars</subject><subject>X-rays</subject><issn>0004-637X</issn><issn>1538-4357</issn><fulltext>true</fulltext><rsrctype>article</rsrctype><creationdate>2023</creationdate><recordtype>article</recordtype><sourceid>O3W</sourceid><sourceid>DOA</sourceid><recordid>eNp9kc9u1DAQhyMEEkvhztES4oII9d_YPpYKupUWqFgQvVmT2Nn1EuLgeCttT30H3pAnwWlQERLiZHn0zaeZ-RXFU4JfMcXlMRFMlZwJeQwNOKXuFYu70v1igTHmZcXk5cPi0Tjupi_VelGEi9BB9NeQfOjRRQyDi8m7EYUWpa1DXxx87Q7oHWx6l_y1s-i926eY2XWCiC7Lj3BAr30P8YDO1ogoWv28-UGZQr6_FSz9ZovWoU1TQ3KPiwctdKN78vs9Kj6_ffPpdFmuPpydn56sykZwmUrtNOEgFTDANcs66YSuiGS5JCiprK405bV2HLOa2rrFitSNpARjKiqw7Kg4n702wM4M0X_LE5oA3twWQtwYyIs2nTN1wy22raQiH6WRombKtkxbaqlurIDsejG7ttD9pVqerIzvx73BeQyMRXVFMvxshocYvu_dmMwu7GOfdzVUSopxhQXLFJ6pJoZxjK698xJspjzNFJ6ZwjNznrnl5dziw_DH-R_8-T9wGHZGc2aoIVSbIe_5Cydgq7Y</recordid><startdate>20230201</startdate><enddate>20230201</enddate><creator>Capitanio, Fiamma</creator><creator>Fabiani, Sergio</creator><creator>Gnarini, Andrea</creator><creator>Ursini, Francesco</creator><creator>Ferrigno, Carlo</creator><creator>Matt, Giorgio</creator><creator>Poutanen, Juri</creator><creator>Cocchi, Massimo</creator><creator>Mikusincova, Romana</creator><creator>Farinelli, Ruben</creator><creator>Bianchi, Stefano</creator><creator>Kajava, Jari J.

We report here the results of the first IXPE observation of a weakly magnetized neutron star, GS 1826−238, performed on 2022 March 29–31 when the source was in a high soft state. An upper limit (99.73% confidence level) of 1.3% for the linear polarization degree is obtained over the IXPE 2–8 keV energy range. Coordinated INTEGRAL and NICER observations were carried out simultaneously with IXPE. The spectral parameters obtained from the fits to the broadband spectrum were used as inputs for Monte Carlo simulations considering different possible geometries of the X-ray emitting region. Comparing the IXPE upper limit with these simulations, we can put constraints on the geometry and inclination angle of GS 1826–238.</abstract><cop>Philadelphia</cop><pub>The American Astronomical
