Progenitor and Explosion Mechanism of 3C 397 Indicated from XRISM High-resolution Spectroscopy of Fe-group Elements

Hiroshi Nakajima, Yuken Ohshiro, Shing-Chi Leung +8

We present spatially resolved X-ray spectroscopy of the Type Ia supernova remnant 3C 397, one of the most promising candidates to have originated from a white dwarf with a mass clo…

Stratified wind from a super-Eddington X-ray binary is slower than expected

XRISM collaboration, Marc Audard, Hisamitsu Awaki +132

Accretion discs in strong gravity ubiquitously produce winds, seen as blueshifted absorption lines in the X-ray band of both stellar mass X-ray binaries (black holes and neutron st…

XRISM/Resolve View of Abell 2319: Turbulence, Sloshing, and ICM Dynamics

XRISM Collaboration, Marc Audard, Hisamitsu Awaki +132

We present results from XRISM/Resolve observations of the core of the galaxy cluster Abell 2319, focusing on its kinematic properties. The intracluster medium (ICM) exhibits temper…

XL-Calibur Polarimetry of Cyg X-1 Further Constrains the Origin of its Hard-state X-ray Emission

Hisamitsu Awaki, Matthew G. Baring, Richard Bose +36

The balloon-borne hard X-ray polarimetry mission XL-Calibur observed the Black Hole X-ray Binary (BHXRB) Cygnus X-1 (Cyg X-1) during its nearly six-day Long Duration Balloon (LDB)…

The unusual spectrum of the X-ray transient source XRISM J174610.8-290021 near the Galactic center

A. Yoshimoto, S. Yamauchi, M. Nobukawa +20

The Galactic center region was observed with the XRISM X-ray observatory during the performance verification phase in 2024 and a point-like X-ray source was detected with the X-ray…

Structured ionized winds shooting out from a quasar at relativistic speeds

XRISM collaboration

Evidence indicates that supermassive black holes exist at the centers of most galaxies. Their mass correlates with the galactic bulge mass, suggesting a co-evolution with their hos…
