Xtend, the Soft X-ray Imaging Telescope for the X-ray Imaging and Spectroscopy Mission (XRISM)
Koji Mori, Hiroshi Tomida, Hiroshi Nakajima +52
Xtend is a soft X-ray imaging telescope developed for the X-Ray Imaging and Spectroscopy Mission (XRISM). XRISM is scheduled to be launched in the Japanese fiscal year 2022. Xtend…
ASCENT - A balloon-borne hard X-ray imaging spectroscopy telescope using transition edge sensor microcalorimeter detectors
Fabian Kislat, Daniel Becker, Douglas Bennett +26
Core collapse supernovae are thought to be one of the main sources in the galaxy of elements heavier than iron. Understanding the origin of the elements is thus tightly linked to o…
Inorbit Performance of the Hard X-ray Telescope (HXT) on board the Hitomi (ASTRO-H) satellite
H. Matsumoto, H. Awaki, M. Ishida +16
Hitomi (ASTRO-H) carries two Hard X-ray Telescopes (HXTs) that can focus X-rays up to 80 keV. Combined with the Hard X-ray Imagers (HXIs) that detect the focused X-rays, imaging sp…
In-orbit performance of the soft X-ray imaging system aboard Hitomi (ASTRO-H)
H. Nakajima, Y. Maeda, H. Uchida +46
We describe the in-orbit performance of the soft X-ray imaging system consisting of the Soft X-ray Telescope and the Soft X-ray Imager aboard Hitomi. Verification and calibration o…
The Quiescent Intracluster Medium in the Core of the Perseus Cluster
Hitomi Collaboration, Felix Aharonian, Hiroki Akamatsu +213
Clusters of galaxies are the most massive gravitationally-bound objects in the Universe and are still forming. They are thus important probes of cosmological parameters and a host…
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…
