Development of a Si/CdTe semiconductor Compton telescope
Takaaki Tanaka, Takefumi Mitani, Shin Watanabe +10
We are developing a Compton telescope based on high resolution Si and CdTe imaging devices in order to obtain a high sensitivity astrophysical observation in sub-MeV gamma-ray regi…
Development of Uniform CdTe Pixel Detectors Based on Caltech ASIC
K. Oonuki, H. Inoue, K. Nakazawa +6
We have developed a large CdTe pixel detector with dimensions of 23.7 x 13.0 mm and a pixel size of 448 x 448 um^2. The detector is based on recent technologies of an uniform CdTe…
Spectral properties of nonthermal X-ray emission from the shell-type SNR RX J1713.7-3946 as revealed by XMM-Newton
Junko S. Hiraga, Yasunobu Uchiyama, Tadayuki Takahashi +1
We present the results of our morphological and spectral study of properties of the supernova remnant RX J1713.7-3946 based on data obtained with XMM-Newton. Highly inhomogeneous s…
Gamma-ray Polarimetry with Compton Telescope
Hiroyasu Tajima, Grzegorz Madejski, Takefumi Mitani +10
Compton telescope is a promising technology to achieve very high sensitivity in the soft gamma-ray band (0.1-10 MeV) by utilizing Compton kinematics. Compton kinematics also enable…
Study of the Sigma-nucleus potential by the (pi^-,K^+) reaction on medium-to-heavy nuclear targets
P. K. Saha, H. Noumi, D. Abe +34
In order to study the Sigma-nucleus optical potential, we measured inclusive (pi^-,K^+) spectra on medium-to-heavy nuclear targets: CH_2, Si, Ni, In and Bi. The CH_2 target was use…
