High-resolution Charge Exchange Spectra with L-shell Nickel Show Striking Differences from Models

G. L. Betancourt-Martinez, P. Beiersdorfer, G. V. Brown +7

We present the first high-resolution laboratory spectra of X-ray emission following L-shell charge exchange between nickel ions and neutral H2 and He. We employ the commonly used c…

Detection of polarized gamma-ray emission from the Crab nebula with Hitomi Soft Gamma-ray Detector

Hitomi Collaboration, Felix Aharonian, Hiroki Akamatsu +191

We present the results from the Hitomi Soft Gamma-ray Detector (SGD) observation of the Crab nebula. The main part of SGD is a Compton camera, which in addition to being a spectrom…

Laboratory Measurements of X-Ray Emission from Highly Charged Argon Ions

Esra Bulbul, Adam Foster, Gregory V. Brown +10

Uncertainties in atomic models will introduce noticeable additional systematics in calculating the flux of weak dielectronic recombination (DR) satellite lines, affecting the detec…
