Description

Polarimetry is a very important probe of the high-energy processes in the Universe. In December 2021 NASA launched the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer - IXPE, offering us a completely new window to the Universe, and the tools to study astrophysical systems from a radically different perspective. I will discuss the lessons learned from IXPE's two-year nominal mission and the implications for the multimessenger emission from candidate neutrino sources.
