NASA's IXPE Solves Long-Standing Mystery Behind Black Hole Jets
NASA's IXPE mission has identified how X-rays are produced in the jet of a supermassive black hole, confirming that they originate from the same jet through synchrotron self-Compton scattering and resolving a long-standing question in X-ray astronomy

NASA’s IXPE Challenges Theories on Black Hole Corona and Polarised X-Ray Emissions
NASA’s Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) has made surprising observations in a black hole binary system, detecting a high degree of X-ray polarisation that challenges current models of corona structure and accretion discs. In X-ray binaries, black holes pull matter from nearby stars, forming hot accretion discs and coronas.

NASA Unveils New Space Sounds From Black Holes Using Sonification
With the help of the Chandra X-ray Observatory, the James Webb Space Telescope, and the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE), the US space agency presented three new space sounds.

NASA Solves Black Hole Jet X-ray Mystery with IXPE’s Polarization Powers
NASA’s IXPE satellite may have solved a longstanding astrophysical mystery: how are X-rays produced in the extreme jets of supermassive black holes? By observing the blazar BL Lacertae, IXPE recorded low X-ray polarization versus very high optical polarization—confirming Compton scattering as the likely mechanism. This breakthrough supports the...
