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…

XRISM Reveals a Remnant Torus in the Low-Luminosity AGN M81*

Jon M. Miller, Ehud Behar, Hisamitsu Awaki +10

Up to 40% of galaxies in the local universe host a low-luminosity active galactic nucleus (LLAGN), making it vital to understand this mode of black hole accretion. However, the pre…
