Temperature Structure in the Perseus Cluster Core Observed with Hitomi

Hitomi Collaboration, Felix Aharonian, Hiroki Akamatsu +192

The present paper investigates the temperature structure of the X-ray emitting plasma in the core of the Perseus cluster using the 1.8--20.0 keV data obtained with the Soft X-ray S…

Atomic data and spectral modeling constraints from high-resolution X-ray observations of the Perseus cluster with Hitomi

Hitomi Collaboration, Felix Aharonian, Hiroki Akamatsu +192

The Hitomi SXS spectrum of the Perseus cluster, with 5 eV resolution in the 2-9 keV band, offers an unprecedented benchmark of the atomic modeling and database for hot collis…

Hitomi Observations of the LMC SNR N132D: Highly Redshifted X-ray Emission from Iron Ejecta

Hitomi Collaboration, Felix Aharonian, Hiroki Akamatsu +191

We present Hitomi observations of N132D, a young, X-ray bright, O-rich core-collapse supernova remnant in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). Despite a very short observation of only…

Glimpse of the highly obscured HMXB IGR J16318-4848 with Hitomi

Hitomi Collaboration, Felix Aharonian, Hiroki Akamatsu +191

We report a Hitomi observation of IGR J16318-4848, a high-mass X-ray binary system with an extremely strong absorption of N_H~10^{24} cm^{-2}. Previous X-ray studies revealed that…

Hitomi Observation of Radio Galaxy NGC 1275: The First X-ray Microcalorimeter Spectroscopy of Fe-Kα Line Emission from an Active Galactic Nucleus

Hitomi Collaboration, Felix Aharonian, Hiroki Akamatsu +191

The origin of the narrow Fe-Kα fluorescence line at 6.4 keV from active galactic nuclei has long been under debate; some of the possible sites are the outer accretion disk, the bro…

A compact imaging system with a CdTe double-sided strip detector for non-destructive analysis using negative muonic X-rays

Miho Katsuragawa, Motonobu Tampo, Koji Hamada +8

A CdTe double-sided strip detector (CdTe-DSD) is an ideal device for imaging and spectroscopic measure- ments in the hard X-ray range above 10 keV. Recent development enables us to…
