Radioactive decay products in neutron star merger ejecta: heating efficiency and -ray emission

Kenta Hotokezaka, Shinya Wanajo, Masaomi Tanaka +3

The radioactive decay of the freshly synthesized -process nuclei ejected in compact binary mergers power optical/infrared macronovae (kilonovae) that follow these events. The li…

The Transient Accereting X-Ray Pulsar XTE J1946+274: Stability of the X-Ray Properties at Low Flux and Updated Orbital Solution

Diana M. Marcu-Cheatham, Katja Pottschmidt, Matthias Kühnel +19

We present a timing and spectral analysis of the X-ray pulsar XTE J1946+274 observed with Suzaku during an outburst decline in 2010 October and compare with previous results. XTE J…

New Identification of the Mixed-Morphology Supernova Remnant G298.6-0.0 with Possible Gamma-ray Association

Aya Bamba, Makoto Sawada, Yuto Nakano +4

We present an X-ray analysis on the Galactic supernova remnant (SNR) G298.6-0.0 with Suzaku. The X-ray image shows a center-filled structure inside the radio shell, implying this S…

Simulating Cherenkov Telescope Array observation of RX J1713.7-3946

T. Nakamori, H. Katagiri, H. Sano +29

We perform simulations of Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) observations of a young supernova remnant RX J1713.7-3946. This target is not only one of the brightest sources ever disco…

Measurement of the Proton-Air Cross Section with Telescope Array's Middle Drum Detector and Surface Array in Hybrid Mode

R. U. Abbasi, M. Abe, T. Abu-Zayyad +122

In this work we are reporting on the measurement of the proton-air inelastic cross section using the Telescope Array (TA) detector. Based on the measurem…
