The metal abundances in galactic nuclei carry key information on the history of star formation and mass transfer in central regions of galaxies. X-ray fluorescence analysis is a un…
A Fast, Hot Wind from a Nuclear Starburst
XRISM Collaboration, Marc Audard, Hisamitsu Awaki +137
Galaxies with intense star formation often host multiphase, galaxy-scale winds powered by supernovae and fast stellar winds. These are strong enough to disrupt the star-forming int…

Delving into the depths of NGC 3783 with XRISM IV. Mapping of the accretion flow with Fe K emission lines
Chen Li, Jelle S. Kaastra, Liyi Gu +18
Using XRISM/Resolve time-averaged spectra of the well-known Seyfert-1.5 active galactic nucleus (AGN) in NGC 3783, we investigate the nature of the Fe K emission…
Delving into the depths of NGC 3783 with XRISM III. Birth of an ultrafast outflow during a soft flare
Liyi Gu, Keigo Fukumura, Jelle Kaastra +18
The 2024 X-ray/UV observation campaign of NGC 3783, led by XRISM, revealed the launch of an ultrafast outflow (UFO) with a radial velocity of 0.19c (57000 km/s). This event is sync…
The dynamic central environment of NGC 3516 revealed by XRISM
Anna Juráňová, Erin Kara, Ehud Behar +15
We present a detailed, time-resolved analysis of the Fe K band of the Seyfert 1.5 galaxy NGC 3516 observed with XRISM. The 249 ks observation spanning 310 ks in elapsed time…
A XRISM/Resolve view of the dynamics in the hot gaseous atmosphere of M87
XRISM Collaboration, M. Audard, H. Awaki +138
The XRISM/Resolve microcalorimeter directly measured the gas velocities in the core of the Virgo Cluster, the closest example of AGN feedback in a cluster. This proximity allows us…
Chlorine and Potassium Enrichment in the Cassiopeia A Supernova Remnant
XRISM collaboration
The elements in the universe are synthesized primarily in stars and supernovae, where nuclear fusion favors the production of even-Z elements. In contrast, odd-Z elements are less…
A XRISM View of Relativistic Reflection in Cygnus X-1
Paul A. Draghis, Jon M. Miller, Erin Kara +3
We present the first high-resolution XRISM/Resolve view of the relativistically broadened Fe K line in Cygnus X-1. The data clearly separate the relativistic broad line from the un…
XRISM constraints on unidentified X-ray emission lines, including the 3.5 keV line, in the stacked spectrum of ten galaxy clusters
XRISM Collaboration, Marc Audard, Hisamitsu Awaki +150
We stack 3.75 Megaseconds of early XRISM Resolve observations of ten galaxy clusters to search for unidentified spectral lines in the 2.5-15 keV band (rest frame), including t…
