Temperature Structure in the Perseus Cluster Core Observed with Hitomi
Hitomi Collaboration, Felix Aharonian, Hiroki Akamatsu +192
The present paper investigates the temperature structure of the X-ray emitting plasma in the core of the Perseus cluster using the 1.8--20.0 keV data obtained with the Soft X-ray S…
Atomic data and spectral modeling constraints from high-resolution X-ray observations of the Perseus cluster with Hitomi
Hitomi Collaboration, Felix Aharonian, Hiroki Akamatsu +192
The Hitomi SXS spectrum of the Perseus cluster, with 5 eV resolution in the 2-9 keV band, offers an unprecedented benchmark of the atomic modeling and database for hot collis…
Hitomi Observations of the LMC SNR N132D: Highly Redshifted X-ray Emission from Iron Ejecta
Hitomi Collaboration, Felix Aharonian, Hiroki Akamatsu +191
We present Hitomi observations of N132D, a young, X-ray bright, O-rich core-collapse supernova remnant in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). Despite a very short observation of only…
Solar abundance ratios of the iron-peak elements in the Perseus Cluster
Hitomi Collaboration
The metal abundance of the hot plasma that permeates galaxy clusters represents the accumulation of heavy elements produced by billions of supernovae. Therefore, X-ray spectroscopy…
Glimpse of the highly obscured HMXB IGR J16318-4848 with Hitomi
Hitomi Collaboration, Felix Aharonian, Hiroki Akamatsu +191
We report a Hitomi observation of IGR J16318-4848, a high-mass X-ray binary system with an extremely strong absorption of N_H~10^{24} cm^{-2}. Previous X-ray studies revealed that…
Hitomi Observation of Radio Galaxy NGC 1275: The First X-ray Microcalorimeter Spectroscopy of Fe-Kα Line Emission from an Active Galactic Nucleus
Hitomi Collaboration, Felix Aharonian, Hiroki Akamatsu +191
The origin of the narrow Fe-Kα fluorescence line at 6.4 keV from active galactic nuclei has long been under debate; some of the possible sites are the outer accretion disk, the bro…
