Evidence for Rapid Adiabatic Cooling as an Origin of the Recombining Plasma in the Supernova Remnant W49B Revealed by NuSTAR Observations

Hiroya Yamaguchi, Takaaki Tanaka, Daniel R. Wik +8

X-ray observations of supernova remnants (SNRs) in the last decade have shown that the presence of recombining plasmas is somewhat common in a certain type of object. The SNR W49B…

NuSTAR Detection of Nonthermal Bremsstrahlung from the Supernova Remnant W49B

Takaaki Tanaka, Hiroya Yamaguchi, Daniel R. Wik +10

We report on NuSTAR observations of the mixed morphology supernova remnant (SNR) W49B, focusing on its nonthermal emission. Whereas radio observations as well as recent gamma-ray o…

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…

Chandrasekhar and sub-Chandrasekhar models for the X-ray emission of Type Ia supernova remnants (I): Bulk properties

Héctor Martínez-Rodríguez, Carles Badenes, Shiu-Hang Lee +9

Type Ia supernovae originate from the explosion of carbon-oxygen white dwarfs in binary systems, but the exact nature of their progenitors remains elusive. The bulk properties of T…

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…

Hitomi X-ray Observation of the Pulsar Wind Nebula G21.50.9

Hitomi Collaboration, Felix Aharonian, Hiroki Akamatsu +194

We present results from the Hitomi X-ray observation of a young composite-type supernova remnant (SNR) G21.50.9, whose emission is dominated by the pulsar wind nebula (PWN) cont…
