In-orbit performance and calibration of the Hard X-ray Imager onboard Hitomi (ASTRO-H)
Kouichi Hagino, Kazuhiro Nakazawa, Goro Sato +37
The Hard X-ray Imager (HXI) onboard Hitomi (ASTRO-H) is an imaging spectrometer covering hard X-ray energies of 5-80 keV. Combined with the hard X-ray telescope, it enables imaging…
Modeling of proton-induced radioactivation background in hard X-ray telescopes: Geant4-based simulation and its demonstration by Hitomi's measurement in a low Earth orbit
Hirokazu Odaka, Makoto Asai, Kouichi Hagino +47
Hard X-ray astronomical observatories in orbit suffer from a significant amount of background due to radioactivation induced by cosmic-ray protons and/or geomagnetically trapped pr…
X-ray Studies of the Extended TeV Gamma-Ray Source VER J2019+368
T. Mizuno, N. Tanaka, H. Takahashi +3
This article reports the results of X-ray studies of the extended TeV -ray source VER J2019+368. Suzaku observations conducted to examine properties of the X-ray pulsar wind neb…
Detection of the Characteristic Pion-Decay Signature in Supernova Remnants
LAT collaboration, M. Ackermann, M. Ajello +167
Cosmic rays are particles (mostly protons) accelerated to relativistic speeds. Despite wide agreement that supernova remnants (SNRs) are the sources of galactic cosmic rays, unequi…
Soft Gamma-ray Detector for the ASTRO-H Mission
Hiroyasu Tajima, Roger Blandford, Teruaki Enoto +26
ASTRO-H is the next generation JAXA X-ray satellite, intended to carry instruments with broad energy coverage and exquisite energy resolution. The Soft Gamma-ray Detector (SGD) is…
