Delving into the depths of NGC 3783 with XRISM II. Cross-calibration of X-ray instruments used in the large, multi-mission observational campaign

XRISM collaboration

Accurate X-ray spectroscopic measurements are fundamental for deriving basic physical parameters of the most abundant baryon components in the Universe. The plethora of X-ray obser…

Hitomi constraints on the 3.5 keV line in the Perseus galaxy cluster

Hitomi Collaboration, Felix A. Aharonian, Hiroki Akamatsu +215

High-resolution X-ray spectroscopy with Hitomi was expected to resolve the origin of the faint unidentified E=3.5 keV emission line reported in several low-resolution studies of va…

Spectrum of Relativistic and Subrelativistic Cosmic Rays in the 100 pc Central Region

V. A. Dogiel, D. O. Chernyshov, A. M. Kiselev +6

From the rate of hydrogen ionization and the gamma ray flux, we derived the spectrum of relativistic and subrelativistic cosmic rays (CRs) nearby and inside the molecular cloud Sgr…

ASTRO-H White Paper - Plasma Diagnostic and Dynamics of the Galactic Center Region

K. Koyama, J. Kataoka, M. Nobukawa +16

The most characteristic high-energy phenomena in the Galactic center (GC) region is the presence of strong K-shell emission lines from highly ionized Si, S, Ar, Ca, Fe and Ni, whic…

Origin of the 6.4-keV line of the Galactic Ridge X-ray Emission

T. G. Tsuru, H. Uchiyama, K. K. Nobukawa +5

We report the first results from high-statistics observation of the 6.4-keV line in the region of to (hereafter referred to as GC East), with the goal…

Discovery of the recombining plasma in the south of the Galactic center; a relic of the past Galactic center activity?

S. Nakashima, M. Nobukawa, H. Uchida +5

We report Suzaku results for soft X-ray emission to the south of the Galactic center (GC). The emission (hereafter "GC South") has an angular size of ~42' x 16' centered at (l, b)…
