Tracking the X-Ray Polarization of the Black Hole Transient Swift J1727.8–1613 during a State Transition

We report on an observational campaign on the bright black hole (BH) X-ray binary Swift J1727.8–1613 centered around five observations by the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer. These observations track for the first time the evolution of the X-ray polarization of a BH X-ray binary across a hard to...
