Re-detection and a possible time variation of soft X-ray polarization from the Crab
The Crab nebula is so far the only celestial object with a statistically significant detection in soft X-ray polarimetry1–4, a window that has not been explored in astronomy since the 1970s. However, soft X-ray p...
