Suzaku X-Ray Imaging and Spectroscopy of Cassiopeia A

Y. Maeda, Y. Uchiyama, A. Bamba +26

Suzaku X-ray observations of a young supernova remnant, Cassiopeia A, were carried out. K-shell transition lines from highly ionized ions of various elements were detected, includi…

Suzaku Observations of Tycho's Supernova Remnant

T. Tamagawa, A. Hayato, S. Nakamura +19

Tycho's supernova remnant was observed by the XIS and HXD instruments onboard the Suzaku satellite on 2006 June 26-29 for 92 ks. The spectrum up to 30 keV was well fitted with a tw…

Abundance Inhomogeneity in the Northeastern Rim of the Cygnus Loop Revealed by Suzaku Observatory

S. Katsuda, H. Tsunemi, H. Uchida +5

We present the results of a spatially resolved spectral analysis from four Suzaku observations covering the northeastern rim of the Cygnus Loop. A two-kT_e non-ionization equilibri…

Asymmetric Ejecta Distribution of the Cygnus Loop revealed with Suzaku

S. Katsuda, H. Tsunemi, E. Miyata +4

We observed a linearly sliced area of the Cygnus Loop from the north-east to the south-west with Suzaku in seven pointings. After dividing the entire fields of view (FOV) into 119…

Evidence for Resonance Line Scattering in the Suzaku X-ray Spectrum of the Cygnus Loop

Emi Miyata, Kuniaki Masai, John P. Hughes

We present an analysis of the Suzaku observation of the northeastern rim of the Cygnus Loop supernova remnant. The high detection efficiency together with the high spectral resolut…
