      Abstract

      Sagittarius A East is a supernova remnant with a unique surrounding environment, as it is located in the immediate vicinity of the supermassive black hole at the Galactic center, Sagittarius A$^{*}$. The X-ray emission of the remnant is suspected to show features of overionized plasma, which would require peculiar evolutionary paths. We report on the first observation of Sagittarius A East with the X-Ray Imaging and Spectroscopy Mission (XRISM). Equipped with a combination of a high-resolution microcalorimeter spectrometer and a large field-of-view CCD imager, we for the first time resolved the Fe xxv K-shell lines into fine structure lines and measured the forbidden-to-resonance intensity ratio to be $1.39 \pm 0.12$, which strongly suggests the presence of overionized plasma. We obtained a reliable constraint on the ionization temperature just before the transition into the overionization state, of $\gt\! 4\:$keV. The recombination timescale was constrained to be $\lt\! 8 \times 10^{11} \:$cm$^{-3}\:$s. The small velocity dispersion of $109 \pm 6\:$km$\:$s$^{-1}$ indicates a low Fe ion temperature $\lt\! 8\:$keV and a small expansion velocity $\lt\! 200\:$km$\:$s$^{-1}$. The high initial ionization temperature and small recombination timescale suggest that either rapid cooling of the plasma via adiabatic expansion from dense circumstellar material or intense photoionization by Sagittarius A$^{*}$ in the past may have triggered the overionization.

      Abstract

      The X-ray binary system Cygnus X-3 (4U 2030+40, V1521 Cyg) is luminous but enigmatic owing to the high intervening absorption. High-resolution X-ray spectroscopy uniquely probes the dynamics of the photoionized gas in the system. In this Letter, we report on an observation of Cyg X-3 with the XRISM/Resolve spectrometer, which provides unprecedented spectral resolution and sensitivity in the 2–10 keV band. We detect multiple kinematic and ionization components in absorption and emission whose superposition leads to complex line profiles, including strong P Cygni profiles on resonance lines. The prominent Fe xxv Heα and Fe xxvi Lyα emission complexes are clearly resolved into their characteristic fine-structure transitions. Self-consistent photoionization modeling allows us to disentangle the absorption and emission components and measure the Doppler velocity of these components as a function of binary orbital phase. We find a significantly higher velocity amplitude for the emission lines than for the absorption lines. The absorption lines generally appear blueshifted by ∼−500–600 km s<sup>−1</sup>. We show that the wind decomposes naturally into a relatively smooth and large-scale component, perhaps associated with the background wind itself, plus a turbulent, denser structure located close to the compact object in its orbit.

      Abstract

      We present an initial analysis of the X-Ray Imaging and Spectroscopy Mission (XRISM) first-light observation of the supernova remnant (SNR) N 132D in the Large Magellanic Cloud. The Resolve microcalorimeter has obtained the first high-resolution spectrum in the 1.6–10 keV band, which contains K-shell emission lines of Si, S, Ar, Ca, and Fe. We find that the Si and S lines are relatively narrow, with a broadening represented by a Gaussian-like velocity dispersion of $\sigma _v \sim 450$ km s$^{-1}$. However, the Fe He$\alpha$ lines are substantially broadened with $\sigma _v \sim 1670$ km s$^{-1}$. This broadening can be explained by a combination of the thermal Doppler effect due to the high ion temperature and the kinematic Doppler effect due to the SNR expansion. Assuming that the Fe He$\alpha$ emission originates predominantly from the supernova ejecta, we estimate the reverse shock velocity at the time when the bulk of the Fe ejecta were shock heated to be $-1000 \lesssim V_{\rm rs}$ (km s$^{-1}$) $\lesssim 3300$ (in the observer frame). We also find that Fe Ly$\alpha$ emission is redshifted with a bulk velocity of $\sim 890$ km s$^{-1}$, substantially larger than the radial velocity of the local interstellar medium surrounding N 132D. These results demonstrate that high-resolution X-ray spectroscopy is capable of providing constraints on the evolutionary stage, geometry, and velocity distribution of SNRs.

      Abstract

      We present an analysis of the first two XRISM/Resolve spectra of the well-known Seyfert-1.5 active galactic nucleus (AGN) in NGC 4151, obtained in 2023 December. Our work focuses on the nature of the narrow Fe K<sub> α </sub> emission line at 6.4 keV, the strongest and most common X-ray line observed in AGN. The total line is found to consist of three components. Even the narrowest component of the line is resolved with evident Fe K<sub> α,1</sub> (6.404 keV) and K<sub> α,2</sub> (6.391 keV) contributions in a 2:1 flux ratio, fully consistent with neutral gas with negligible bulk velocity. Subject to the limitations of our models, the narrowest and intermediate-width components are consistent with emission from optically thin gas, suggesting that they arise in a disk atmosphere and/or wind. Modeling the three line components in terms of Keplerian broadening, they are readily associated with (1) the inner wall of the “torus,” (2) the innermost optical “broad-line region” (or “X-ray BLR”), and (3) a region with a radius of r ≃ 100 GM/c <sup>2</sup> that may signal a warp in the accretion disk. Viable alternative explanations of the broadest component include a fast-wind component and/or scattering; however, we find evidence of variability in the narrow Fe K<sub> α </sub> line complex on timescales consistent with small radii. The best-fit models are statistically superior to simple Voigt functions, but when fit with Voigt profiles the time-averaged lines are consistent with a projected velocity broadening of FWHM . Overall, the resolution and sensitivity of XRISM show that the narrow Fe K line in AGN is an effective probe of all key parts of the accretion flow, as it is currently understood. We discuss the implications of these findings for our understanding of AGN accretion, future studies with XRISM, and X-ray-based black hole mass measurements.

      Abstract

      The accretion-induced pulse period changes of the Be/X-ray binary pulsar X Persei were investigated over the period of 1996 January to 2017 September. This study utilized the monitoring data acquired with the RXTE All-Sky Monitor in 1.5–12 keV and the MAXI Gas-Slit Camera in 2–20 keV. The source intensity changed by a factor of 5–6 over this period. The pulsar was spinning down for 1996–2003, and has been spinning up since 2003, as already reported. The spin-up/down rate and the 3–12 keV flux, determined every 250 d, showed a clear negative correlation, which can be successfully explained by the accretion torque model proposed by Ghosh and Lamb (1979, ApJ, 234, 296). When the mass, radius, and distance of the neutron star were allowed to vary over a range of 1.0–2.4 solar masses, 9.5–15 km, and 0.77–0.85 kpc, respectively, the magnetic field strength of B = (4–25) × 1013 G gave the best fits to the observations. In contrast, the observed results cannot be explained by the values of B ∼ 1012 G previously suggested for X Persei, as long as the mass, radius, and distance are required to take reasonable values. Assuming a distance of 0.81 ± 0.04 kpc as indicated by optical astrometry, the mass of the neutron star is estimated as M = 2.03 ± 0.17 solar masses.

      We present results from the Hitomi X-ray observation of a young composite-type supernova remnant (SNR) G21.5−0.9, whose emission is dominated by the pulsar wind nebula (PWN) contribution. The X-ray spectra in the 0.8–80 keV range obtained with the Soft X-ray Spectrometer (SXS), Soft X-ray Imager, and Hard X-ray Imager (HXI) show a significant break in the continuum as previously found with the NuSTAR observation. After taking into account all known emissions from the SNR other than the PWN itself, we find that the Hitomi spectra can be fitted with a broken power law with photon indices of Γ1 = 1.74 ± 0.02 and Γ2 = 2.14 ± 0.01 below and above the break at 7.1 ± 0.3 keV, which is significantly lower than the NuSTAR result (∼9.0 keV). The spectral break cannot be reproduced by time-dependent particle injection one-zone spectral energy distribution models, which strongly indicates that a more complex emission model is needed, as suggested by recent theoretical models. We also search for narrow emission or absorption lines with the SXS, and perform a timing analysis of PSR J1833−1034 with the HXI and the Soft Gamma-ray Detector. No significant pulsation is found from the pulsar. However, unexpectedly, narrow absorption line features are detected in the SXS data at 4.2345 keV and 9.296 keV with a significance of 3.65 σ. While the origin of these features is not understood, their mere detection opens up a new field of research and was only possible with the high resolution, sensitivity, and ability to measure extended sources provided by an X-ray microcalorimeter.

      The 3rd Suzaku international Conference "Energetic Cosmos : from Suzaku to ASTRO-H" (June 29-July 2, 2009. Grand Park Otaru Hotel), Otaru, Hokkaido JapanWe have developed the X-ray CCD camera system for the Soft X-ray Imager (SXI) which will be launched as focal plane detectors of X-ray telescope onboard the Japanese 6th X-ray astronomical satellite, Astro-H. The X-ray CCD is back-illuminated (BI) CCD which has an Optical Blocking Layer (OBL) directly coating its X-ray illumination surface with Aluminum-Polyimide-Aluminum instead of Optical Blocking Filter (OBF). The X-ray CCD is affected by large doses of extreme ultraviolet (EUV) radiation from Earth sun-lit atmosphere (airglow) in orbit. To evaluate the performance of polyimide that cut off EUV, we measured the EUV transmission of both OBL and OBF at various energy range between 15 - 72 eV by utilizing beam line located at the Photon Factory in High Energy Accelerator Research Organization (KEK-PF) in this March and June, and obtained the EUV transmission to be 3% at 41 eV which is as same as expected transmission from the designed thickness of polyimide layer.Meeting sponsors: The University of Tokyo, The Institute of Physical and Chemical Research, The Japan Society for the Promotion of ScienceNumber of authors: 22

      The 3rd Suzaku international Conference "Energetic Cosmos : from Suzaku to ASTRO-H" (June 29-July 2, 2009. Grand Park Otaru Hotel), Otaru, Hokkaido JapanWe report the XIS calibration on the data taken with the 2 x 2 mode and window option and the current status of the XIS Non-X-ray Background (NXB) database. The 2 x 2 mode and window option are useful for bright source observations to avoid telemetry saturation and event pile-up. The NXB database provides the best-estimated NXB spectrum for any specific observations obtained with the standard mode (Normal-Clock with no Window or Burst and 5 x 5(sub -) (3 x 3(sub -) Editing mode). The data taken with the 2 x 2 mode in the "SCI-off" era are fully calibrated, and there is no practical difference from those taken with the standard mode. A calibration study for the data taken with the 2 x 2 mode in the "SCI-on" era is on-going. The calibration for the data taken with the window option was significantly improved in the HEASOFT 6.6.2 released at 2009 April 1st. In the comparison with the standard-mode data, the gain difference around 6 keV becomes less than 10 and 15 eV in XIS 0,3 and XIS 1, respectively. We have been updating the NXB database every half a year. There is no drastic change in the light curves, but steady approximately 4 % year(sup -1) level increase and decrease are found in those of XIS 0,3 and XIS 1, respectively.Meeting sponsors: The University of Tokyo, The Institute of Physical and Chemical Research, The Japan Society for the Promotion of ScienceNumber of authors: 25

      Orbital calibrations of the XIS, in terms of the energy scale, energy resolution, and quantum efficiency, are needed not only to confirm the calibrations on the ground but also to examine inevitable performance change in orbit. Fundamentals of the XIS calibration issues have been established and are implemented the softwares and the data base for general observers. We overview the current status of the XIS calibration in orbit.

      Soft X-ray response of X-ray Imaging Spectrometers (XIS) for the Astro-E satellite is measured with a grating spectrometer system at Osaka. First, relation between incident X-ray energy and output pulse height peak (E-PH relation) is examined with an SX grating. It is found that jump in the E-PH relation around Si-K edge is at most 2.7 eV. Second, quantum efficiency (QE) of the XIS in 0.4-2.2 kev range is measured relatively to the reference CCD of which absolute QE was calibrated with a gas proportional counter. The QE is fitted with a model in which CCD gate structures are considered. Systematic error on the QE results is estimated by referring an independent measurement. Third, tuning and improvement of the response function is performed. We employ six components to reproduce the response profile of the XIS. In this paper, improvement of one component which is originated in the events absorbed in the channel-stop is presented. Neverthless, Astro-E was lost due to the launch failure. We overview the XIS project in its flight model phase, modified points of the design, problems and solutions etc., in order to be utilized in a possible recovery of the satellite.

    • Where Are the X-Ray Event Grades Formed Inside the Pixel of the Charge-Coupled Device? The Behavior of the Primary Charge Cloud Inside the Charge-Coupled Device.

      We report the use of an improved technique to measure the X-ray detection efficiency of a charge-coupled device (CCD) with a subpixel resolution. This technique makes use of a parallel X-ray beam and metal mesh placed closely on the CCD. The mesh has many circular holes spaced at distance of 4 times the CCD pixel size (multi-pitch mesh). We could identify the interaction position of X-rays both for single events and for split pixel events. By using this method, we demonstrated how various types of X-ray events are formed inside the CCD. We have already shown that the two-pixel split events were formed near the pixel boundary. We clearly showed that the three-pixel events were formed when the interaction position was close to the pixel corner, whereas the four-pixel split events were formed when the interaction position was much closer to the pixel corner. We found that the center of gravity of split events could represent the interaction position with an uncertainty of 0.13 pixel size.

      We report the use of a new technique to measure the X-ray detection efficiency of a charge-coupled device (CCD) with subpixel resolution. The new technique makes use of a parallel X-ray beam and metal mesh placed just in front of the CCD. The CCD camera we used is a conventional system using the TC213 (Texas Instrument Japan (TIJ)) whose pixel size is 12 &micro; m &times;12 &micro; m with one million pixels. The mesh has 4 &micro;m diameter holes spaced at 12 &micro;m intervals. We produced an efficiency map within a typical pixel showing the gate structure in detail: a virtual gate, a clock gate and an antiblooming gate. The gate structure we measured is consistent with the manufacturer's design value. By selecting single pixel events, we detected a pixel boundary. Additional plans for application will also be discussed.

    • Time Variation of the X-rays from Cygnus X-1 : Hard X-ray Time Lag

      Cygnus X-1 has long been known as a the black hole candidate, whose X-ray flux shows rapid variability on many time scales. Its X-rays have long been considered to be due to inverse Compton scattering of low energy photons by a high temperature plasma clound of 10^8&acd;10^9K situated near the black hole. In this case, time variations of high energy X-rays are expected to be delayed with respect to those of lower energy X-rays. Complex cross spectrum analysis of Cygnus X-1 data taken with the large area proportional counters (LAC) onboard Ginga revealed that the time delay of the high energy X-rays with respect to the lower energy X-rays increases from about 2 msec to several sec for periods from 0.1 sec to 300 sec. This result is inconsistent with the inverse Compton scattering model of Cygnus X-1. The time lag is different in its sign from those in the low mass (QPO) X-ray stars which contain neutron stars. This seems to be explained by the fact that the X-ray emitting plasma is heating up near the black hole and disappears suddenly into the black hole. The phase lag always showed similar time behavior even if the energy ranges and observing times were different, and its characteristic time constants were about 0.1 sec, 3 sec and 10 sec.

      We report here the discovery with the All Sky Monitor Detector on board the GINGA satellite of the X-ray transient, GS2000+25,which appeared in the constellation Vulpecula on 23 April, 1988. The maximum observed intensity was 12 Crab (1-6keV). Two stars in the X-ray error box appeared to increase from the epoch of the Palomar Observatory Sky Survey; one of these was confirmed to be the counterpart by optical spectra and radio measurements. The X-ray spectrum and light curve during the decay phase shows that it belongs to a class of ultra-soft sources which include black hole candidates like A 0620-00. A detailed comparison with A 0620-00 supports the identification of GS2000+25 as a possible new black hole candidate.

    • Application of Multilayer Reflectors to X-Ray Optic System for Cosmic X-Ray Observation

      Development of multilayer reflectors makes it possible to apply to the grazing and normal incidence X-ray optic system for the cosmic X-ray observation in 0.1-10keV region. For the grazing incidence X-ray telescope, multilayer reflectors have an advantage to make larger the glancing angle and to extend the energy range up to 10keV in the fixed configuration. The normal incidence X-ray telescope is attainable in the energy range below 0.4keV, though the sensitive energy band is limited by Bragg condition estimated from the layer thickness and the number of layer pairs. Multilayers are also useful optical elements to fabricate the X-ray spectrometer and polarimeter. We are fabricating multilayer reflectors with electron beam evaporation method in ultra-high vacuum. Material combinations are Mo/C, Mo/Si and Ni/C with 5-20 layer pairs and the layer thickness of 31-100A. They are deposited on flat and figured substrates of float glass and superpolished glass with the surface roughness of 2-3A (rms). Multilayers thus fabricated are evaluated by measuring the reflectivity, the wavelength resolution and Bragg angle with three characteristic X-rays of Cu-Kα(1.54A), Si-Kα(7.13A) and C-Kα(44.7A). Further investigations are carried out with the monochromatized synchrotron radiation in 14-250A band. The peak reflectivity of Cu-Kα is obtained to be 80% for Mo/C in the grazing incidence and that of λ160A to be more than 30% for Mo/Si in near normal incidence.

      研究の最終目標は、ブラックホール候補天体の撮像をして、ブラックホール候補天体が本当にブラックホールであることを示すことである。そのために、これまでも超高精度撮像を目指して、研究を行ってきた(参考文献 Kitamoto et al. 2007. “X-ray imaging and adaptive optics system for a 13.5nm telescope”, SPIE 他)。この構想の延長として、本研究では、超高精度撮像装置のひとつの候補であるX線干渉計(http://maxim.gsfc.nasa.gov/docs/science/science.html)の試作実験を行う。本研究では、最近思いついた新型X線干渉計のアイデアの実証実験を行う。この実証ができれば、X線干渉計による天体観測、X線によるブラックホール撮像に大きく近づくことになる。

      We produced a teaching course material for young students to learn about high energy phenomena in space, using archival database obtained from high energy astronomical satellites. The teaching material consists of two parts ; the first part is a pamphlet of introduction to high energy astrophysics, history of X-ray astronomy, instruments and satellites for high energy observations, and guidance of the topics treated in this course. The second part is the main body of the course, distributed as a CD, which gives data analysis manual and discussion on the results for each scientific topic. This course includes scientific topics such as early type stars, supernova remnants, neutron stars, black-holes, dark-mater in clusters of galaxies. The CD includes both the data and software to be used for the analysis, thus readers can learn space science themselves using this CD on their own PCs.

      Our research goal is to elucidate X-ray emission mechanisms of stars. To accomplish our study, at first we developed a new collisional-radiative model of stellar wind from stars including the radiation transfer. Next we applied our stellar wind model to the observed X-ray spectral lines with X-ray satellites to reveal the X-ray emitted region around stars, the density of the stellar wind, the temperature of the stellar wind, and so on.
      The result of our study is as follows.
      (1) Developments of a high precise collisional-radiative model of various helium-like (C, N, O, Ne, Mg, Si, S) ions. Inclusions of radiation transfer by Monte Carlo method are at a stage of a toy model.
      (2) Developments of a collisional-radiative model on KLM-shell Fe ions and applications to laboratory plasma. The model for Fe ions was applied to helical plasmas (large helical device (LHD) at the National Institute for Fusion Science) for highly precise modeling.
      (3) Constructions of a Doppler model including three components, the doppler shift derived from a velocity distribution of stellar winds, absorptions by mediums in stellar winds, and filling factors.
      (4) Analysis of early type stars obtained with X-ray satellites (Chandra and XMM-Newton) by the doppler model, and discussions of X-ray emission regions around stars. Furthermore X-ray emission spectra of stars by Suzaku satellite (launched in 2005) were analyzed. We obtained that x-ray emission regions of zeta-pup are near a star, on the other hand these of tau-sco are far from a star (Yamamoto et al.2007).
      We plan as follows, more precise analysis of x-ray emission spectra, a development from current toy model to a practical radiation transfer model, researches of practical non-equilibrium plasma model. Then, astronomical plasmas and solar plasmas are analyzed by the model.

      The purpose of this research project is to improve not only the fundamental properties of X-ray CCD but also as an X-ray polarimeter. The research group consists of the member s in Hamamatsu photnonics (HPK) and the members in Osaka university. According to the specification determined by all the members, the CCD chips were fabricated at HPK,and the university side operated and examined those chips.
      Several kinds of CCD chips using different material and production methods have been made. We got eventually energy resolution of 140 eV for 5.9 keV X-rays with a CCD chip of which pixel size is 12 mum and pixel number is 512x512. Although the resolution was 160 eV at the end of the first year in the research term, reduction of the dark current by 1/50 lead to the better resolution. Using high registivity material, we got a CCD chip of which depletion layr is as thick as 20 mum.
      University side activities include the development of CCD operation and evaluation ; 1) spectrometer system for measuing the CCD detection efficiency for 0.4-2.2keV X-rays, 2) CCD drive clock to suppress spurious charge noise, 3) high speed read-out system using DSP,4) simulation code for X-ray absorption and charge collection process within CCD.Adding these, we invented a novel method for measuring detection efficiency for sub-pixel size structure by employing a mesh in front of the CCD chip. We also measured polarization degree of the X-ray beam from a laboratory X-ray generator. CCD chips with pixel size of 6 mum, which should be effective for X-ray polarimetry, were started to fabricate. The polarimeter-capability of those small pixel size CCD will be measured within the year of 1997.

      X線天文衛生「あすか」で4個のO型星ζ-Ori, δ-Ori, λ-Ori, ζ-PupからのX線を観測した。そして、各々の星から、高階電離したマグネシウムや珪素からの輝線を発見した。これより、O型星からのX線は熱的な起源をもつことを明らかにした。この結果を根拠にX線が光学的に薄い高温プラズマからの放射であると仮定して、X線放射のモデルと輝線の強度から、酸素、ネオン、マグネシウム、珪素、硫黄、鉄の組成比を見積もることに成功した。その結果、それらの元素組成比は、硫黄を除いて、いわゆる宇宙組成の約1/3以下で、とくに、鉄に関しては約1/10以下である事がわかった。これら、重元素の相対組成比は大質量星の爆発であるII型超新星で作られる元素組成比とたいへん良く似ている。このことから、O型星はII型超新星によって汚染されたガスから作られた事が示唆される。
      また、O型星の元素組成比がいわゆる宇宙組成比より重元素が少ないということは、次のような大問題を含んでいる。O型星のような早期型星はその年齢がせいぜい1千万年であるから、O型星を形成する元となったガスは、1千万年前のわれわれの銀河系内にあったガスである。O型星のような早期型星の表面のガスはほぼ星が形成された時のガスのままであるか、または、星内部の核融合反応によって生成された重元素によりさらに汚染されているはずである。X線は星風か、表面のコロナから放射されているはずであるから、X線で決めた重元素比は、星表面物質の重元素比を表わしている。すなわち、我々の結果は、1千年前の我々銀河系のガスがいわゆる宇宙組成比よりもはるかに少ない重元素しか含まなかった事を示唆している。

      ASCA (ASTRO-D), the fourth X-ray astronomy satellite of ISAS,was successfully launched on February 20,1993. It carries nested thin-foil X-ray mirrors providing a large effective area over a wide energy range from 0.5 to 10keV.A set of CCD cameras and imaging gas scintillation proportional counters are placed on the focal plane. ASCA is a high-throughput imaging and spectroscopic X-ray observatory with these instruments.
      An extensive collaboration between Japanese and U.S.scientists has been carried out in the joint developments of the X-ray telescopes, the X-ray CCD cameras, and computer software. It is continuing in the maintenance and the in-flight calibration of the instruments, and also in the data analysis and the following scientific activities.
      ASCA is an X-ray astronomy observatory which is, for the first time, capable of performing imaging and spectroscopic observations simultaneously over a wide energy range 0.5-10keV.The ASCA instruments cover the most important energy band for plasma diagnostics, because all the K-lines and the K-absorption edges from oxygen through iron at various ionization stages lie within this band. The CCD camera of ASCA can resolve all major lines individually. Motion of plasma of the order or greater than 1000km/s can be measured significantly from Doppler shift of the line energies. These capabilities of ASCA allow diagnostics of accreting matter around such compact objects as neutron stars and black holes. Spatially-resolved spectroscopy with ASCA also provides powerful means for the investigations of extended plasmas in supernova remnants, galaxies, and clusters of galaxies.
      The key elements of ASCA are succesfully working in orbit. ASCA has already obtained several remarkable scientific results. Most of them are due to the Japan-US collaboration with the help of this International Scientific Research Program as A Grant-in Aid for Scientific Research.

      It has become increasingly apparent that origin of cosmic gamma-ray bursts (CGBs) can only be determined by identifying burster counterparts in other energy ranges. To date, slightly over half a dozen CGBs have positions determined to 10 square arc-minutes or better. Although the burst and transient experiment on the Gamma-Ray Observatory are greatly increasing the number of known burst sources and provide fundamentally new information on their distribution over the sky, the accuracy of source locations it provides to be at best in the -1 degree range. Infrared, optical and soft X-ray searches have not revealed any convincing candidates for these CGBs. Even apart from the important information which such observations convey about the physics of CGB sources, they can in principle serve the important function of bridging the gap between the relatively large (-several arc-minutes in size) gamma-ray error boxes and the very small (-a few arc-seconds in size) boxes needed to conduct deep optical searches (> 25th magnitude) for the exceedingly faint quiescent burster counterparts. For all searches to date, questions concerning possible proper motion, the association between the putative optical and gamma-ray emission and the time structure of the optical transient event, remain unanswered. The high energy transient experiment project was internationally organized to reach an integrated approach to resolving these and other fundamental questions about CGBs and other astronomical transients.
      Considering these situations, this project promotes the international specific satellite which contains three scientific instruments ; an omnidirectional gamma-ray spectrometer (France-CESR), a wide-field X-ray monitor (Japan- RIKEN), and an ultraviolet transient camera array. (USA-MIT) This satellite is scheduled to be launched by NASA Pegasus rocket in April-May, 1995. We have to communicate various information internationally to promote this satellite. We have meetings and do tests to adjust collaboration and interfaces of instruments.

      We have been developing a new hard X-ray/Gamma-ray(40keV - 800keV)detector, Welcome-1. Its characteristic is the low-background counts, which is very important factor of the balloon or satellite-borne detector. The detector utilizes the well-type phoswich counter and the compound-eye configuration. Based on the experience with the Welcome -1 detector launched from Brazil, we have improved the detector. In order to obtain higher sensitivity along the line we have pursued, we have reduced the background by narrowing the opening angle of the detector and replacing the main scintillation detector from GSO to Nal.
      We performed the balloon-borne experiment at Sanriku, Japan on June 5, 1993. Dr. Tim Edberg was invited as a co-investigator. We observed Crab Nebuula/Pulsar for three hours. Signal to noise ration at the energy range from 50keV to 150 keV exceeds 1.5 in which the flux from the source is reduced to 1/3 by tghe air-attenuation. This S/N ration is the highest among the hard X-ray detectors launched so far. In order to discuss, the feasibility and possible procedures for the future collaborative balloon campaign, we went abroad and discussed with the chair person at several institutes.

      A new transmission grating is developed. So far crystals and gratings have been used fro a dispersive elements in spectrometers for X-rays. The crystals provide high spectral resolution, but the observation effeciency for a certain energy band is small. The reflective gratings have a good efficiency near the brazed wave length. But in order to apply it for the X-rays above 2 ke V a large area is required. The transmission grating is one of the most interesting device for the spectrometer for X-rays above 2 keV. However, the big disadvantage of the transmission grating is its inefficiency into the dispersed light (10.13% for each first order). One of the reason of the inefficiency is that the braze-angle could not be introduced for a transmission grating.
      In this research, I introduce a new idea for the transmission grating in order to improve the efficiency to the first order light. The introduction of one reflection in the transmission grating can resemble a braze-angle, and make the 0th order light reduced, and the first order light emphasized. Computer simulation demonstrated these performances. Furthermore, experiments using a visible light also showed the grate advantage of this new transmission grating.

      The fiscal year of 1991 has become the end of mission life of the Ginga satellite, which stayed in the orbit for 4 years and 9 months since the launch on February 5 1987. The orbit of Ginga continued to decay, until October 30 1991 when the last contact was made with the satellite. It is believed that Ginga re-entered the atmosphere on November 1 or so. Under these circumstances, two scientists from Japan visited the United Kingdom on three occasions, and two UK scientists visited Japan on three occasions as well. Principal results of collaboration in the present fiscal year include the following three items.
      (1)The scientists from, both parties closely collaborated on the Ginga operation during the last phase of its mission life. In particular, the Large Area Proportional Counter, a UK-Japan joint experiment serving as the main instrument of Ginga, has been calibrated in detail to demonstrate that its performance stayed constant during the entire mission life.
      (2)The entire Ginga data are stored both in Japan and UK, and will continue to be of precious scientific valuable for the entire world. Discussion was therefore made to establish an appropriate scheme to make these archival data open to public, especially to scientists of other countries.
      (3)Joint data analysis was made on several research topics, followed by preparations of joint papers. The topics include cosmic X-ray background, active galactic nuclei, X-ray pulsars, X-ray emitting white dwarfs, and so on.

      Time variation of X-rays from binary X-ray stars are observed with the all sky monitor, (ASM) and the large area counters (LAC) onboard GINGA. With ASM we found more than 13 so-called X-ray novas. Among these, there are GS2000+25 and GS2023+338, which seem to be black hole candidates because of their time variations and energy spectra of X-rays. We also studied the X-ray time variations of Cygnus X-1 and GX339-4, which were also black hole candidates.
      We discovered GS2023+25 on 26th April 1989. Its whole behavior from the appearance to the disappearance was very similar to the black hole candidate X- ray star AO620-00.
      GS2023+338 was discovered on 21st May 1989. This source showed very large, short and long term time variations up to the factor of about 500 before 1st of June. After this time, this source showed rapid time variations which was very similar to those of Cygnus X-1 in its low state. The power density spectrum and the lag time structure of its time variations were similar to those of Cygnus X-1.
      Cygnus X-1 was observed with LAC, and we found the structure of the time lag of the time variations can not be explained by the Compton scattering model, which had been assumed to explain the energy spectrum of this source. We also found there were two characteristic time constants of about 0.2 sec and 0.7 sec, with which we could reproduce the power density spectrum and phase lag structure of X-rays from this source.
      We found there existed very high state in GX339-4 from the observation with ASM. We also observed this source with LAC and found the phase lag structure could be explained by the existence of the Compton scattering cloud of the size of about 2 10^9cm. Based on this fact we proposed a jet model which can explain the energy spectrum and the phase lag structure of this source.

      For a high efficiency X-ray spectrometer, we introduced a new method using etalon. Multilayers have a merit which can be freely designed the structure. Inserting a spacer between regularly piled layers, we can make a etalon. Furthermore, we can control the characteristics of the reflectivity of etalon, changing the thickness of the spacer. Using suitable etalons, we can get a fourier transformed signals of the X-ray spectrum and we can reconstruct the X-ray spectrum with inverse fourier transforms of the signals. We showed the validity of this method by a computer simulation.
      To get a basic data of the multilayers, we fabricated various thickness multilayers consisting of Ni and C, and evaluated the reflectivity. We found that it is difficult to make a high reflectivity multilayers with the thickness of less than 100A and found that its cause is roughness of the layers of about 10A (r.m.s). On the basis of this results, we fabricated etalons consisting Ni and C and evaluated the characteristics of reflectivity using characteristic X-rays and synchrotron orbital radiators. We found that the etalons have a roughly designed characteristics.
      We also developed a position sensitive proportional counter and evaluated its characteristics. We found that our position sensitive proportional counter has about 2 mm position resolution and 18% energy resolution for 5.9 keV X-rays. It is possible to make a high efficiency X-ray spectrometer using our position sensitive proportional counter and etalons.

      この研究の目的は日英双方のX線天文学グループが経験と技術を併せて,〓界最大規模の大面積比例計数管を製作Astro-C(ぎんが)に搭載しX線天体の精密観測による研究を行うことである. ぎんがは昭和62年2月打ち上げられ性能評価,調整作業も無事完了したので,次は日英科学者が共同して多くの観測成果を挙げることがこれからの目的である.
      宇宙科学研究所のX線天文衛星「ぎんが」は昭和62年2月5日に打ち上げられ,順調に働いている. この衛星の主観測装置である大面積比例計数管は日本と英国のLeicester大学,Rutherford Appsleton研究所のグループとの共同で製作したものであり,これまでで〓界最高のX線集光面積を持つものである.
      打ち上げ以来,昭和62年9月まで,軌道上での性能評価,較正及び解析ソフトウェアの開発等を日英共同で行った. この目的のため「かに星雲」その他標準となるX線源の観測を行い,それを日英双方で解析を行い,両者のソフトウェアの互換性のチェックを行うと共に,最適性能を得るよう観測装置の微調整を行った.
      9月以降は個々の科学者からの観測申込を日英双方から募集し,選択されたものについて観測を行っている. 多数の応募があったため,2度の日英会合で調整を計った. 11月には初期成果の検討会を宇宙研で開催し, (宇宙圏研究会),英国側から数名が参加した.
      「ぎんが」の性能を反映して,多くの優れた成果が得られつつある. 日英共同の観測については,論文を作成するため結果の検討,討議が必要であり,この為の科学者の相互訪門が行れた. 数編の日英共著の論文がまとまりつつあり,間もなく学会誌に発表される運びである.
      これ迄に,多くのX線星について周期的変化(パルサー),準周期変動,不規測変動スペクトル等について詳しく調べられた他,特異X線星SS433の構造を調べる手掛りとなる新しい知見が得られた. 又, 新しいX線源の発見と共に,超遠方の活動銀河核のスペクトルや強度変化等についてこれまでにない高精度の観測結果が次々に生まれている. 更に,大マゼラン星雲に出現した超新星については最新のデーターを全〓界に提供している. 将来も引き続き,日英科学者による密接な共同研究を続けることを双方が強く希望している.

      Development of multilayer reflectors makes it possible to apply to the grazing and normal incidence X-ray optic system for the comsic X-ray observation in 0.1 - 10keV region. For the grazing incidence X-ray telescope, multilayer reflectors have an advantage to make larger the glancing angle and to extend the energy range up to 10keV in the fixed geometrical configuration. The normal incidence X-ray telescope is attainable in the energy range below 0.4keV, though the sensitive energy hand is limited by Bragg condition estimated form the layer thickness and the number of layer pairs. Multilayers are also useful optical elements to fabricate the X-ray spectrometer and polarimeter.
      We are fabricating multilayer reflectors with an electro beam evaporation in method ultrahigh vacuum. Material combinations are Mo/C, Mo/Si and Ni/C with 5-20 layer pairs and the layer thickness of 36-100A. They are deposited on flat and figured substrates of float glass and superpolished glass with the surface roughness of 2-3A(rms).
      Multilayers thus fabricated are evaluated by measuring the reflectivity, the wavelength resolution and the Bragg angle of the reflection order with four characteristic X-rays of Cu-K<alpha>(1.54A), Si-K<alpha> (7.13A), Al-K<alpha>(8.34A), C-K<alpha>(44.7A). Further investigations are carried out with the monochromatized synchrotron radiation in 14-250A band at Photon Factory, National Laboratory for High Energy Physics, and at UVSOR, Institute for Molecular Science. The peak reflectivity of Cu-K<alpha> is obtained to be 80% for Mo/C in the grazing incidence and that of <lambda>160A to be more than 30% for Mo/Si in the near normal incidence.
