Detection of polarized gamma-ray emission from the Crab nebula with Hitomi Soft Gamma-ray Detector

Hitomi Collaboration, Felix Aharonian, Hiroki Akamatsu +191

We present the results from the Hitomi Soft Gamma-ray Detector (SGD) observation of the Crab nebula. The main part of SGD is a Compton camera, which in addition to being a spectrom…

Hitomi X-ray Observation of the Pulsar Wind Nebula G21.50.9

Hitomi Collaboration, Felix Aharonian, Hiroki Akamatsu +194

We present results from the Hitomi X-ray observation of a young composite-type supernova remnant (SNR) G21.50.9, whose emission is dominated by the pulsar wind nebula (PWN) cont…

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…

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…
