Simple, compact, high-resolution monochromatic x-ray source for characterization of x-ray calorimeter arrays
M. A. Leutenegger, M. E. Eckart, S. J. Moseley +6
X-ray calorimeters routinely achieve very high spectral resolution, typically a few eV full width at half maximum (FWHM). Measurements of calorimeter line shapes are usually domina…

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…
