The Fe K fluorescence line at 6.4 keV is a powerful probe of cold matter surrounding X-ray sources and has been widely used in various astrophysical contexts. The X-ray microcal…
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…
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…
Comparing XRISM cluster velocity dispersions with predictions from cosmological simulations: are feedback models too ejective?
XRISM Collaboration, Marc Audard, Hisamitsu Awaki +147
The dynamics of the intra-cluster medium (ICM), the hot plasma that fills galaxy clusters, are shaped by gravity-driven cluster mergers and feedback from supermassive black holes (…
Stratified wind from a super-Eddington X-ray binary is slower than expected
XRISM collaboration, Marc Audard, Hisamitsu Awaki +132
Accretion discs in strong gravity ubiquitously produce winds, seen as blueshifted absorption lines in the X-ray band of both stellar mass X-ray binaries (black holes and neutron st…
