Amendment 27: Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer Final Text and Due Dates

D.17 The Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) General Observer (GO) Program solicits proposals for basic research relevant to the IXPE mission in any area of astrophysics (not constrained to address IXPE’s prime science areas). Further details on IXPE Cycle 1 may be found on the IXPE GO Program website at https://heasarc.gsfc.nasa.gov/docs/ixpe/.

ROSES-2023 Amendment 27 releases final text and due dates for D.17 IXPE GO. Optional Notices of Intent are requested by September 18, 2023. Phase-1 proposals are due at 4:30 p.m. eastern time October 18, 2023, via ARK/RPS. Phase-1 proposals will be evaluated using a dual-anonymous peer review process. See Section 2.2.2 and in the associated "Guidelines for Anonymous Proposals" document.

Programmatic information regarding D.17 IXPE GO may be directed to Hashima Hasan at hhasan@nasa.gov and Technical questions concerning this program element may be directed to Kavitha Arur at kavitha.arur@nasa.gov.

A close-up of a spiral galaxy, seen face-on. Its center is a bright white point, surrounded by a large yellowish oval with thin lines of dust swirling in it. From the sides of the oval emerge two bright spiral arms which wind through the round disk of the galaxy, filled with shining pink spots where stars are forming and more dark reddish dust. Many stars are visible in the foreground, over and around the galaxy.

Hundreds of overlapping objects at various distances are spread across this field. Galaxies’ colors vary. The majority appear orange, pink, and white, some are shades of orange or blue. Most galaxies appear as fuzzy ovals, but a few have distinctive spiral arms. At the very center is a tiny galaxy nicknamed Firefly Sparkle that looks like a long, angled, dotted line. Smaller companions are nearby.

The image is divided horizontally by an undulating line between a cloudscape forming a nebula along the bottom portion and a comparatively clear upper portion. Speckled across both portions is a starfield, showing innumerable stars of many sizes. The smallest of these are small, distant, and faint points of light. The largest of these appear larger, closer, brighter, and more fully resolved with 8-point diffraction spikes. The upper portion of the image is blueish, and has wispy translucent cloud-like streaks rising from the nebula below. The orangish cloudy formation in the bottom half varies in density and ranges from translucent to opaque. The stars vary in color, the majority of which have a blue or orange hue. The cloud-like structure of the nebula contains ridges, peaks, and valleys – an appearance very similar to a mountain range. Three long diffraction spikes from the top right edge of the image suggest the presence of a large star just out of view.
