Search for the time evolution of the synchrotron X-ray spectrum of the youngest Galactic supernova remnant G1.9+0.3 using Suzaku

A. Sezer, R. Yamazaki, Y. Ohira +2

G1.9+0.3 is the youngest known Galactic supernova remnant (SNR) and dominated by X-ray synchrotron emission. Synchrotron X-rays can be a useful tool to study the electron accelerat…

Classification of extremely metal-poor stars: absent region in A(C)-[Fe/H] plane and the role of dust cooling

Gen Chiaki, Nozomu Tominaga, Takaya Nozawa

Extremely metal-poor (EMP) stars are the living fossils with records of chemical enrichment history at the early epoch of galaxy formation. By the recent large observation campaign…
