A relativistic funnel scattering model with variable bulk velocity reproduces the ~23% hard-state and ~12% soft-state polarization in Cygnus X-3 at low inclination using half-opening angles of 13-16 degrees.
IXPE measures 7.9% polarization in 4U 1822-37 with energy dependence and eclipse variation consistent with scattering in an extended corona at high inclination.
Spectral fitting of 2022 observations indicates the disk reaches 7-17 R_g from the neutron star at low inclination, with first reported type-II bursts attributed to magnetospheric gating.
Candidate mHz QPOs detected in GX 3+1 at 7-15 mHz with 0.51-1.41% rms, one surviving global significance, occurring at higher luminosities than in other NS LMXBs.
XSPECT observations of two soft X-ray transients during outburst decay reveal superburst evolution with cooling blackbody emission and a flux-dependent hardening of Comptonized spectra.
NuSTAR and NICER data on SAX J1808.4-3658 show the accretion disk truncating to ~23 R_g in 2025 with magnetospheric radius exceeding co-rotation radius, indicating a possible transition to the propeller regime while accretion continues as evidenced by a Type-I burst.
Discovery of an eclipsing neutron star LMXB with clocked bursts, orbital period 6.483 hr, companion mass 0.6-0.8 Msun, and helium burst indications from energy ratio 120-130.
A synthesis of multi-wavelength observations and models of variability, jets, and polarization in stellar-mass black hole accretion systems.
