Large X-ray Flares on Stars Detected with MAXI/GSC: A Universal Correlation between the Duration of a Flare and its X-ray Luminosity
Yohko Tsuboi, Kyohei Yamazaki, Yasuharu Sugawara +39
23 giant flares from 13 active stars (eight RS CVn systems, one Algol system, three dMe stars and one YSO) were detected during the first two years of our all-sky X-ray monitoring…
Repetitive Patterns in Rapid Optical Variations in the Nearby Black-hole Binary V404 Cygni
Mariko Kimura, Keisuke Isogai, Taichi Kato +65
How black holes accrete surrounding matter is a fundamental, yet unsolved question in astrophysics. It is generally believed that matter is absorbed into black holes via accretion…
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…
Hard X-ray Luminosity Function of Tidal Disruption Events: First Results from MAXI Extragalactic Survey
Taiki Kawamuro, Yoshihiro Ueda, Megumi Shidatsu +4
We derive the first hard X-ray luminosity function (XLF) of stellar tidal disruption events (TDEs) by supermassive black holes (SMBHs), which gives an occurrence rate of TDEs per u…
An optically-thick disk wind in GRO J1655-40?
Megumi Shidatsu, Chris Done, Yoshihiro Ueda
We revisited the unusual wind in GRO J1655-40 detected with Chandra in 2005 April, using long-term RXTE X-ray data and simultaneous optical/near-infrared photometric data. This win…
