POET: POlarimeters for Energetic Transients
J. E. Hill, M. L. McConnell, P. Bloser +15
POET (Polarimeters for Energetic Transients) is a Small Explorer mission concept proposed to NASA in January 2008. The principal scientific goal of POET is to measure GRB polarizat…
Suzaku Observations of Tycho's Supernova Remnant
T. Tamagawa, A. Hayato, S. Nakamura +19
Tycho's supernova remnant was observed by the XIS and HXD instruments onboard the Suzaku satellite on 2006 June 26-29 for 92 ks. The spectrum up to 30 keV was well fitted with a tw…
Effects of Compton scattering on the Gamma Ray Spectra of Solar flares
Jun'ichi Kotoku, Kazuo Makishima, Yukari Matsumoto +3
Using fully relativistic GEANT4 simulation tool kit, the transport of energetic electrons generated in solar flares was Monte-Carlo simulated, and resultant bremsstrahlung gamma-ra…
In-Orbit Performance of the Hard X-ray Detector on board Suzaku
M. Kokubun, K. Makishima, T. Takahashi +52
The in-orbit performance and calibration of the Hard X-ray Detector (HXD) on board the X-ray astronomy satellite Suzaku are described. Its basic performances, including a wide ener…
Swift and Suzaku Observations of the X-Ray Afterglow from the GRB 060105
M. S. Tashiro, K. Abe, L. Angelini +34
Results are presented of early X-ray afterglow observations of GRB 060105 by Swift and Suzaku. The bright, long gamma-ray burst GRB 060105 triggered the Swift Burst Alert Telescope…
Kiso observations for 20 GRBs in HETE-2 era
Y. Urata, Y. Nakada, T. Miyata +7
We have established a GRB follow-up observation system at Kiso observatory (Japan) in 2001. Since the east Asian area had been blank for the GRB follow-up observational network, th…
