Temperature Structure in the Perseus Cluster Core Observed with Hitomi
Hitomi Collaboration, Felix Aharonian, Hiroki Akamatsu +192
The present paper investigates the temperature structure of the X-ray emitting plasma in the core of the Perseus cluster using the 1.8--20.0 keV data obtained with the Soft X-ray S…
Hitomi Observations of the LMC SNR N132D: Highly Redshifted X-ray Emission from Iron Ejecta
Hitomi Collaboration, Felix Aharonian, Hiroki Akamatsu +191
We present Hitomi observations of N132D, a young, X-ray bright, O-rich core-collapse supernova remnant in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). Despite a very short observation of only…
Glimpse of the highly obscured HMXB IGR J16318-4848 with Hitomi
Hitomi Collaboration, Felix Aharonian, Hiroki Akamatsu +191
We report a Hitomi observation of IGR J16318-4848, a high-mass X-ray binary system with an extremely strong absorption of N_H~10^{24} cm^{-2}. Previous X-ray studies revealed that…
Hitomi Observation of Radio Galaxy NGC 1275: The First X-ray Microcalorimeter Spectroscopy of Fe-Kα Line Emission from an Active Galactic Nucleus
Hitomi Collaboration, Felix Aharonian, Hiroki Akamatsu +191
The origin of the narrow Fe-Kα fluorescence line at 6.4 keV from active galactic nuclei has long been under debate; some of the possible sites are the outer accretion disk, the bro…
Measurements of resonant scattering in the Perseus cluster core with Hitomi SXS
Hitomi Collaboration, Felix Aharonian, Hiroki Akamatsu +192
Thanks to its high spectral resolution (~5 eV at 6 keV), the Soft X-ray Spectrometer (SXS) on board Hitomi enables us to measure the detailed structure of spatially resolved emissi…
Search for Thermal X-ray Features from the Crab nebula with Hitomi Soft X-ray Spectrometer
Hitomi Collaboration, Felix Aharonian, Hiroki Akamatsu +192
The Crab nebula originated from a core-collapse supernova (SN) explosion observed in 1054 A.D. When viewed as a supernova remnant (SNR), it has an anomalously low observed ejecta m…
