Abstract: The X-Ray Imaging and Spectroscopy Mission, XRISM, is currently scheduled to launch in 2022 with the objective of building on the brief, but significant, successes of the ASTRO-H (Hitomi) mission in solving outstanding astrophysical questions using high resolution X-ray spectroscopy. The XRISM Science Operations Team (SOT) consists of the JAXA-led Science Operations Center (SOC) and NASA-led Science Data Center (SDC), which work together to optimize the scientific output from the Resolve high-resolution spectrometer and the Xtend wide-field imager through planning and scheduling of observations, processing and distribution of data, development and distribution of software tools and the calibration database (CaldB), support of ground and in-flight calibration, and support of XRISM users in their scientific investigations of the energetic universe. Here, we summarize the roles and responsibilities of the SDC and its current status and future plans. The Resolve instrument poses particular challenges due to its unprecedented combination of high spectral resolution and throughput, broad spectral coverage, and relatively small field-of-view and large pixel-size. We highlight those challenges and how they are being met.

7. Understanding the physical state of hot plasma formed through stellar wind collision in WR140 using high-resolution X-ray spectroscopy

Abstract: We analyse a series of XMM–Newton RGS data of the binary Wolf–Rayet star WR140 that encompasses one entire orbit. We find that the RGS detects X-rays from optically thin thermal plasma only during orbital phases when the companion O star is on the near side of the WR star. Although such X-rays are believed to be emitted from the shock cone formed through collision of the stellar winds, temperature and density profiles of the plasma along the cone have not been measured observationally. We find that the temperature of the plasma producing Ne emission lines is 0.4–0.8 keV, using the intensity ratio of Kα lines from He-like and H-like Ne. We also find, at orbital phases 0.816 and 0.912, that the electron number density in the Ne line-emission site is approximately 1012 cm−3 from the observed intensity ratios f/r and i/r of the He-like triplet. We calculated the shock cone shape analytically, and identify the distance of the Ne line-emission site from the shock stagnation point to be 0.9–8.9 × 1013 cm using the observed ratio of the line-of-sight velocity and its dispersion. This means that we will be able to obtain the temperature and density profiles along the shock cone with emission lines from other elements. We find that the photoexcitation rate by the O star is only 1.3–16.4 per cent of that of the collisional excitation at orbital phase 0.816. This implies that our assumption that the plasma is collisionally excited is reasonable, at least at this orbital phase.

8. Simple interpretation of the seemingly complicated X-ray spectral variation of NGC 5548

Abstract: NGC 5548 is a very well-studied Seyfert 1 galaxy in broad wavelengths. Previous multiwavelength observation campaigns have indicated that its multiple absorbers are highly variable and complex. A previous study applied a two-zone partial covering model with different covering fractions to explain the complex X-ray spectral variation and reported a correlation between one of the covering fractions and the photon index of the power-law continuum. However, it is not straightforward to physically understand such a correlation. In this paper, we propose a model to avoid this unphysical situation; the central X-ray emission region is partially covered by clumpy absorbers composed of double layers. These "double partial coverings" have precisely the same covering fraction. Based on our model, we have conducted an extensive spectral study using the data taken by XMM-Newton, Suzaku, and NuSTAR in the range of 0.3-78 keV for 16 years. Consequently, we have found that the X-ray spectral variations are mainly explained by independent changes of the following three components; (1) the soft excess spectral component below ~1 keV, (2) the cut-off power-law normalization, and (3) the partial covering fraction of the clumpy absorbers. In particular, spectral variations above ~1 keV are mostly explained only by the changes of the partial covering fraction and the power-law normalization. In contrast, the photon index and all the other spectral parameters are not significantly variable., 14 pages, 13 figures, Published in MNRAS

Subjects: Wearable Electronic Devices, Multidisciplinary, Heart Rate, Hypertension, Humans, Blood Pressure, Blood Pressure Determination
Abstract: The aim of this preliminary study was to measure the systolic BP (SBP) and diastolic BP (DBP) and heart rate (HR) of radiological technologists by WD, and evaluate variation among individuals by worktime, day of the week, job, and workplace. Measurements were obtained using a wristwatch-type WD with optical measurement technology that can measure SBP and DBP every 10 minutes and HR every 30 minutes. SBP, DBP, and HR data obtained at baseline and during work time were combined with the hours of work, day of the week, job, and workplace recorded by the participants in 8 consecutive weeks. We calculated the mean, the ratio to baseline and coefficient of variation [CV(%)] for SBP, DBP, and HR. SBP, DBP, and HR values were significantly higher during work hours than at baseline (p1.2 at the time of starting work, middle and after lunch, and at 14:00. The ratio to baseline of SBP were 1.2 or more for irradiation, equipment accuracy control, registration of patient data, dose verification and conference time, and were also working in CT examination room, treatment planning room, linac room, and the office. CV(%) of BP and HR were generally stable for all workplaces. WD measurements of SBP, DBP, and HR were higher during working hours than at baseline and varied by the individuals, work time, job, and workplace. This method may enable evaluation of unconscious workload in individuals.

Abstract: PURPOSE We investigated how a radiologic technologist explains to a patient about the risk of radiation exposure involved by the radiological examination. METHODS In this institutional review board-approved, cross-sectional study, an online questionnaire link was emailed to 650 radiological technologists who are members of the National Hospital Kanto Koshinetsu Radiological Technologist Association. The questions to survey risk communication included the ideal and reality explanation for radiation exposure to patients, the respondent's educational background, and years of experience. Statistical analysis was performed using the Kruskal-Wallis test and Bonferroni correction as a multiple comparison test. RESULTS Among the 650 radiological technologists, 245 (37.7%) completed the online questionnaire. The most common response was to compare and convey the doses of radiation during examination and background radiation when asked by a patient about risk. In the cross-analysis, the Kruskal-Wallis test showed no significant difference in what was explained according to educational background. According to years of experience, a significant difference in the content was found about explanation of the risk to patients. CONCLUSIONS We clarified the actual condition of risk communication related to the exposure in radiological examinations. In the future, development of risk communication is expected by improving the knowledge and information of "risk" and giving explanations requested by patients.

Abstract: XRISM is an X-ray astronomical mission by the JAXA, NASA, ESA and other international participants, that is planned for launch in 2022 (Japanese fiscal year), to quickly restore high-resolution X-ray spectroscopy of astrophysical objects. To enhance the scientific outputs of the mission, the Science Operations Team (SOT) is structured independently from the instrument teams and the Mission Operations Team. The responsibilities of the SOT are divided into four categories: 1) guest observer program and data distributions, 2) distribution of analysis software and the calibration database, 3) guest observer support activities, and 4) performance verification and optimization activities. As the first step, lessons on the science operations learned from past Japanese X-ray missions are reviewed, and 15 kinds of lessons are identified. Among them, a) the importance of early preparation of the operations from the ground stage, b) construction of an independent team for science operations separate from the instrument development, and c) operations with well-defined duties by appointed members are recognized as key lessons. Then, the team structure and the task division between the mission and science operations are defined; the tasks are shared among Japan, US, and Europe and are performed by three centers, the SOC, SDC, and ESAC, respectively. The SOC is designed to perform tasks close to the spacecraft operations, such as spacecraft planning, quick-look health checks, pre-pipeline processing, etc., and the SDC covers tasks regarding data calibration processing, maintenance of analysis tools, etc. The data-archive and user-support activities are covered both by the SOC and SDC. Finally, the science-operations tasks and tools are defined and prepared before launch., Comment: 42 pages, 7 figures, 8 table, Accepted for Publication in JATIS (SPIE)

Abstract: WR 125 is considered as a Colliding Wind Wolf-rayet Binary (CWWB), from which the most recent infrared flux increase was reported between 1990 and 1993. We observed the object four times from November 2016 to May 2017 with Swift and XMM-Newton, and carried out a precise X-ray spectral study for the first time. There were hardly any changes of the fluxes and spectral shapes for half a year, and the absorption-corrected luminosity was 3.0e+33 erg/s in the 0.5 - 10.0 keV range at a distance of 4.1 kpc. The hydrogen column density was higher than that expected from the interstellar absorption, thus the X-ray spectra were probably absorbed by the WR wind. The energy spectrum was successfully modeled by a collisional equilibrium plasma emission, where both the plasma and the absorbing wind have unusual elemental abundances particular to the WR stars. In 1981, the Einstein satellite clearly detected X-rays from WR 125, whereas the ROSAT satellite hardly detected X-rays in 1991, when the binary was probably around the periastron passage. We discuss possible causes for the unexpectedly low soft X-ray flux near the periastron., 5 page, 1 figure, accepted for publication in MNRAS

Abstract: The X-Ray Imaging and Spectroscopy Mission, XRISM, is scheduled to launch in 2022, with the goal of building on the brief successes of the ASTRO-H (Hitomi) mission, and recovering the prime science objective to solve outstanding astrophysical questions using high resolution X-ray spectroscopy. The XRISM Science Operations Team (SOT), consists of the JAXA-led Science Operations Center (SOC) and NASA-led Science Data Center (SDC) that work together to optimize the scientific output from the Resolve high-resolution spectrometer and the Xtend wide-field imager through planning and scheduling observations, processing and distribution of data, development and distribution of software tools and the calibration database (CaldB), user support, and support of ground and in-flight calibration. Here, we summarize the roles and responsibilities of the SDC, and the current status and future plans, covering scheduling software, software and CalDB production and release, data transmission and processing pipeline, and simulation and other post-pipeline analysis tools. Resolve poses particular challenges due to its unprecedented combination of high spectral resolution and throughput, broad spectral coverage, and relatively small field-of-view and large pixel-size; and, we highlight those challenges.

The inner phantom consists of deformable, 20 mm thick disk-shaped sponges. To evaluate the physical characteristics of the phantom, we evaluated its image quality and deformation. DIR accuracies were evaluated using the three types of commercially DIR software (MIM, RayStation, and Velocity AI) to test the feasibility of this phantom. We used different DIR parameters to test the impact of parameters on DIR accuracy in various phantom settings. To evaluate DIR accuracy, a target registration error (TRE) was calculated using the anatomical landmark points. The three locations (i.e., distal, middle, and proximal positions) had different displacement amounts. This result indicated that the inner phantom was not moved but deformed. In cases with different phantom settings and marker settings, the ranges of the average TRE were 0.63–15.60 mm (MIM). In cases with different DIR parameters settings, the ranges of the average TRE were as follows: 0.73–7.10 mm (MIM), 8.25–8.66 mm (RayStation), and 8.26–8.43 mm (Velocity). These results suggest that our phantom could evaluate the detailed DIR behaviors with TRE. Therefore, this is indicative of the potential usefulness of our phantom in DIR commissioning and QA.

Abstract: The X-Ray Imaging and Spectroscopy Mission (XRISM) is the successor to the 2016 Hitomi mission that ended prematurely. Like Hitomi, the primary science goals are to examine astrophysical problems with precise highresolution X-ray spectroscopy. XRISM promises to discover new horizons in X-ray astronomy. XRISM carries a 6 x 6 pixelized X-ray micro-calorimeter on the focal plane of an X-ray mirror assembly and a co-aligned X-ray CCD camera that covers the same energy band over a large field of view. XRISM utilizes Hitomi heritage, but all designs were reviewed. The attitude and orbit control system were improved in hardware and software. The number of star sensors were increased from two to three to improve coverage and robustness in onboard attitude determination and to obtain a wider field of view sun sensor. The fault detection, isolation, and reconfiguration (FDIR) system was carefully examined and reconfigured. Together with a planned increase of ground support stations, the survivability of the spacecraft is significantly improved.

Abstract: Purpose As there have been few reports on quantitative analysis of inter-institutional results for independent monitor unit (MU) verification, we performed a multi-institutional study of verification to show the feasibility of applying the 3–5% action levels used in the U.S. and Europe, and also to show the results of inter-institutional comparisons. Methods A total of 5936 fields were collected from 12 institutions. We used commercial software employing the Clarkson algorithm for verification after a validation study of measurement and software comparisons was performed. The doses generated by the treatment planning systems (TPSs) were retrospectively analyzed using the verification software. Results Mean ± two standard deviations of all locations were 1.0 ± 3.6%. There were larger differences for breast (4.0 ± 4.0%) and for lung (2.5 ± 5.8%). A total of 80% of the fields with differences over 5% of the action level involved breast and lung targets, with 7.2 ± 5.4%. Inter-institutional comparisons showed various systematic differences for field shape for breast and differences in the fields were attributable to differences in reference point placement for lung. The large differences for breast and lung are partially attributable to differences in the methods used to correct for heterogeneity. Conclusions The 5% action level may be feasible for verification; however, an understanding of larger differences in breast and lung plans is important in clinical practice. Based on the inter-institutional comparisons, care must be taken when determining an institution-specific action level from plans with different field shape settings and incorrectly placed reference points.

Abstract: Purpose No multi-institutional studies of computer-based independent dose calculation have addressed the discrepancies among radiotherapy treatment planning systems (TPSs) and the verification programs for intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) and volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT). We conducted a multi-institutional study to investigate whether ±5% is a reasonable action level for independent dose calculation for IMRT/VMAT. Methods In total, 477 IMRT/VMAT plans for prostate or head and neck (H&N) malignancies were retrospectively analyzed using a modified Clarkson-based commercial verification program. The doses from the TPSs and verification programs were compared using the mean ±1 standard deviation (SD). Results In the TPS-calculated dose comparisons for prostate and H&N malignancies, the sliding window (SW) technique (−2.5 ± 1.8% and −5.3 ± 2.6%) showed greater negative systematic differences than the step-and-shoot (S&S) technique (−0.3 ± 2.2% and −0.8 ± 2.2%). The VMAT dose differences for prostate and H&N malignancies were 0.9 ± 1.8% and 1.1 ± 3.3%, respectively. The SDs were larger for the H&N plans than for the prostate plans in both IMRT and VMAT. Such plans including more out-of-field control points showed greater systematic differences and SDs. Conclusions This study will help individual institutions to establish an action level for agreement between primary calculations and verification for IMRT/VMAT. A local dose difference of ±5% at a point within the planning target volume (above −350 HU) may be a reasonable action level.

Abstract: We report the first half-year monitoring of the new Galactic black hole candidate MAXI J1348-630, discovered on 2019 January 26 with the Gas Slit Camera (GSC) on-board MAXI. During the monitoring period, the source exhibited two outburst peaks, where the first peak flux (at T=14 day from the discovery of T =0) was ~4 Crab (2-20 keV) and the second one (at T =132 day) was ~0.4 Crab (2-20 keV). The source exhibited distinct spectral transitions between the high/soft and low/hard states and an apparent "q"-shape curve on the hardness-intensity diagram, both of which are well-known characteristics of black hole binaries. Compared to other bright black hole transients, MAXI J1348-630 is characterized by its low disk-temperature (~0.75 keV at the maximum) and high peak flux in the high/soft state. The low peak-temperature leads to a large innermost radius that is identified as the Innermost Stable Circular Orbit (ISCO), determined by the black hole mass and spin. Assuming the empirical relation between the soft-to-hard transition luminosity (Ltrans) and the Eddington luminosity (LEdd), Ltrans/LEdd ~ 0.02, and a face-on disk around a non-spinning black hole, the source distance and the black hole mass are estimated to be D ~ 4 kpc and ~7 (D/4 kpc) Mo, respectively. The black hole is more massive if the disk is inclined and the black hole is spinning. These results suggest that MAXI J1348-630 may host a relatively massive black hole among the known black hole binaries in our Galaxy., Comment: 7 pages, 5 figures, accepted by ApJL

Abstract: It is essential for quality assurance to verify the safety of each individual patient's plan in radiation therapy. The tolerance level for independent verification of monitor unit calculations for non-IMRT clinical radiotherapy has been shown in the AAPM TG114. Thus, we investigated the precision of independent MU (dose) verification considering a wedge off-axis calculation and we conducted a study at twelve institutes for independent verification with the wedge off-axis calculation. The results obtained with the wedge off-axis calculation showed better agreement with the treatment planning system calculation results than those without the former calculation in a phantom study and in the patient retrospective study. The confidence limits with the wedge off-axis calculation were 2.2±3.4% and 2.0±4.3% for the plans with a physical wedge and a non-physical wedge in the patient study, respectively. However, the confidence limits were over 5% without the off-axis calculation. From our multi-institutional study, the results suggested that the tolerance level for the wedge off-axis plan would be 5% when considering the wedge off-axis calculation and the level was similar to that of the treatment planning system using other conventional irradiation techniques.

Abstract: We present multi-epoch X-ray spectral observations of three Type IIn supernovae (SNe) 2005kd, 2006jd, and 2010jl, acquired with Chandra, XMM-Newton, Suzaku, and Swift. Previous extensive X-ray studies of SN 2010jl have revealed that X-ray spectra are dominated by thermal emission, which likely arises from a hot plasma heated by a forward shock propagating into a massive circumstellar medium (CSM). Interestingly, an additional soft X-ray component was required to reproduce the spectra at a period of ~1-2 yr after the SN explosion. Although this component is likely associated with the SN, its origin remained an open question. We find a similar, additional soft X-ray component from the other two SNe IIn as well. Given this finding, we present a new interpretation for the origin of this component; it is thermal emission from a forward shock essentially identical to the hard X-ray component, but directly reaches us from a void of the dense CSM. Namely, the hard and soft components are responsible for the heavily- and moderately-absorbed components, respectively. The co-existence of the two components with distinct absorptions as well as the delayed emergence of the moderately-absorbed X-ray component would be evidence for asphericity of the CSM. We show that the X-ray spectral evolution can be qualitatively explained by considering a torus-like geometry for the dense CSM. Based on our X-ray spectral analyses, we estimate the radius of the torus-like CSM to be on the order of ~5 times 10^{16} cm., 11 pages, 3 figures, accepted for publication in The Astrophysical Journal

Abstract: The Hitomi (ASTRO-H) mission is the sixth Japanese X-ray astronomy satellite developed by a large international collaboration, including Japan, USA, Canada, and Europe. The mission aimed to provide the highest energy resolution ever achieved at E > 2 keV, using a microcalorimeter instrument, and to cover a wide energy range spanning four decades in energy from soft X-rays to gamma-rays. After a successful launch on 2016 February 17, the spacecraft lost its function on 2016 March 26, but the commissioning phase for about a month provided valuable information on the on-board instruments and the spacecraft system, including astrophysical results obtained from first light observations. The paper describes the Hitomi (ASTRO-H) mission, its capabilities, the initial operation, and the instruments/spacecraft performances confirmed during the commissioning operations for about a month.

Abstract: We report a serendipitous detection of an intense X-ray flare from the Tycho reference source HD 161084 during a Suzaku observation of the Galactic Center region for 20 ks. The X-ray Imaging Spectrometer (XIS) recorded a flare from this A1-type dwarf or subgiant star with a flux of 1.4x10^{-12} erg s^{-1} cm^{-2} (0.5--10 keV) and a decay time scale of 0.5 hr. The spectrum is hard with a prominent Fe XXV K alpha emission line at 6.7 keV, which is explained by a 5 keV thin-thermal plasma model attenuated by a 1.4x10^{21} cm^{-2} extinction. The low extinction, which is consistent with the optical reddening, indicates that the source is a foreground star toward the Galactic Center region. Based on the spectroscopic parallax distance of 530 pc, the peak X-ray luminosity amounts to 1x10^{32} erg s^{-1} (0.5--10 keV). This is much larger than the X-ray luminosity of ordinary late-type main-sequence stars, and the X-ray emission is unattributable to a hidden late-type companion that comprises a wide binary system with the A-star. We discuss possible natures of HD 161084 and suggest that it is most likely an interacting binary with elevated magnetic activity in the companion such as the Algol-type system. The flux detected by Suzaku during the burst is 100 times larger than the quiescent level measured using the archived XMM-Newton and Chandra data. The large flux amplification makes this star a unique example among sources of this class., Comment: 8 pages, 6 figures, 2 tables, PASJ in press

Abstract: The joint JAXA/NASA ASTRO-H mission is the sixth in a series of highly successful X-ray missions developed by the Institute of Space and Astronautical Science (ISAS), with a planned launch in 2015. The ASTRO-H mission is equipped with a suite of sensitive instruments with the highest energy resolution ever achieved at E > 3 keV and a wide energy range spanning four decades in energy from soft X-rays to gamma-rays. The simultaneous broad band pass, coupled with the high spectral resolution of Delta E < 7 eV of the micro-calorimeter, will enable a wide variety of important science themes to be pursued. ASTRO-H is expected to provide breakthrough results in scientific areas as diverse as the large-scale structure of the Universe and its evolution, the behavior of matter in the gravitational strong field regime, the physical conditions in sites of cosmic-ray acceleration, and the distribution of dark matter in galaxy clusters at different redshifts., 24 pages, 18 figures, Proceedings of the SPIE Astronomical Instrumentation "Space Telescopes and Instrumentation 2014: Ultraviolet to Gamma Ray"

Abstract: Recent studies have claimed the existence of very massive stars (VMS) up to 300 solar masses in the local Universe. As this finding may represent a paradigm shift for the canonical stellar upper-mass limit of 150 Msun, it is timely to discuss the status of the data, as well as the far-reaching implications of such objects. We held a Joint Discussion at the General Assembly in Beijing to discuss (i) the determination of the current masses of the most massive stars, (ii) the formation of VMS, (iii) their mass loss, and (iv) their evolution and final fate. The prime aim was to reach broad consensus between observers and theorists on how to identify and quantify the dominant physical processes., 29 pages, 7 figures, Proceedings Joint Discussion 2.

Abstract: We present results of spectral studies of two Wolf-Rayet colliding wind binaries (WR 140 and WR 30a), using the data obtained by the Suzaku and XMM-Newton satellites. WR 140 is one of the best known examples of a Wolf-Rayet star. We executed the Suzaku X-ray observations at four different epochs around periastron passage in Jan. 2009 to understand the W-R stellar wind as well as the wind-wind collision shocks. We detected hard X-ray excess in the HXD band (> 10 keV) for the first time from a W-R binary. The emission measure of the dominant, high temperature component is not inversely proportional to the distance between the two stars. WR 30a is the rare WO-type W-R binary. We executed XMM-Newton observations and detected X-ray emission for the first time. The broad-band spectrum was well-fitted with double-absorption model. The hard X-ray emission was heavily absorbed. This can be interpreted that the hard X-ray emitting plasma exist near WO star.

Abstract: WR 140 is one of the best known examples of a Wolf‐Rayet stars. We executed the Suzaku X‐ray observations at four different epochs around periastron passage in Jan. 2009 to understand the W‐R stellar wind as well as the wind‐wind collision shocks. The column density at periastron is about 30 times higher than that at pre‐periastron, which can be explained as self‐absorption by the Wolf‐Rayet wind. The spectra are dominated by a line and continuum emission from a optically thin‐thermal plasma. The strong Ne‐K lines are evidence that the thermal plasma is shock‐heated W‐R wind materials by the interaction with the wind from the companion O star. We present the parameters of the wind, such as a mass‐loss rate, which were calculated with the absorption and line emission in the spectra.

Abstract: We report the preliminary results of the Suzaku observations of the W‐R binary WR 140 (WC7+O5I). We executed the observations at four different epochs around periastron passage in Jan. 2009 to understand the W‐R stellar wind as well as the wind‐wind collision shocks. The total exposure was 210 ksec. We detected hard X‐ray excess in the HXD band (>10 keV) for the first time from a W‐R binary. Another notable discovery was a soft component which is not absorbed even by the dense wind. The spectra can be fitted by three different components; one is for the stationary cool component with kT ∼0.1 keV, one for a dominant high temperature component with kT ∼3 keV, and one for the hardest power‐low component with Γ∼2. The column density at periastron is 30 times higher than that at pre‐periastron, which can be explained as self‐absorption by the W‐R wind. The emission measure of the dominant, high temperature component is not inversely proportional to the distance between the two stars.

40. Large X-ray flares on stars detected with MAXI/GSC: A universal correlation between the duration of a flare and its X-ray luminosity.

Abstract: Twenty-three giant flares from thirteen active stars (eight RS CVn systems, one Algol system, three dMe stars, and one young stellar object) were detected during the first two years of our all-sky X-ray monitoring with the gas propotional counters (GSC) of the Monitor of All-sky X-ray Image (MAXI). The observed parameters of all these MAXI/GSC flares are found to be at the upper ends for stellar flares with the luminosity of 1031-34 erg s-1 in the 2-20 keV band, the emission measure of 1054-57 cm-3, the e-folding time of 1 hr to 1.5 d, and the total radiative energy released during the flare of 1034-39 erg. Notably, the peak X-ray luminosity of 5+4-2 x 1033 erg s-1 in the 2-20 keV band was detected in one of the flares on II Peg, which is one of the, or potentially the, largest-ever-observed in stellar flares. X-ray flares were detected from GTMus, V841 Cen, SZ Psc, and TWA-7 for the first time in this survey. Where as most of our detected sources are multiple-star systems, two of them are single stars (YZ CMi and TWA-7). Among the stellar sources within 100 pc distance, the MAXI/GSC sources have larger rotation velocities than the other sources. This suggests that the rapid rotation velocity may play a key role in generating large flares. Combining the X-ray flare data of nearby stars and the sun, taken from literature and our own data, we discovered a universal correlation of τt ∝ LX0.2 for the flare duration τ and the intrinsic X-ray luminosity LX in the 0.1-100 keV band, which holds for 5 and 12 orders of magnitude in τ and LX, respectively. The MAXI/GSC sample is located at the highest ends of the correlation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

41. Suzaku monitoring of the Wolf-Rayet binary WR140 around periastron passage: An approach for quantifying the wind parameters.

Abstract: Suzaku observations of theWolf-Rayet (W-R) binaryWR140 (WC7pd+O5.5fc) were made at four different times around periastron passage in 2009 January. The spectra changed in shape and flux with the phase. As periastron approached, the column density of the low-energy absorption increased, which indicates that the emission from the wind-wind collision plasma was absorbed by the dense W-R wind. The spectra can be mostly fitted with two different components: a warm component with kBT = 0.3-0.6 keV and a dominant hot component with kBT ~3 keV. The emission measure of the dominant, hot component is not inversely proportional to the distance between the two stars. This can be explained by the O star wind colliding before it has reached its terminal velocity, leading to a reduction in its wind momentum flux. At phases closer to periastron, we discovered a cool plasma component in a recombining phase, which is less absorbed. This component may be a relic of the wind-wind collision plasma, which was cooled down by radiation, and may represent a transitional stage in dust formation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

42. TWO DISTINCT-ABSORPTION X-RAY COMPONENTS FROM TYPE IIn SUPERNOVAE: EVIDENCE FOR ASPHERICITY IN THE CIRCUMSTELLAR MEDIUM.

Abstract: We present multi-epoch X-ray spectral observations of three Type IIn supernovae (SNe), SN 2005kd, SN 2006jd, and SN 2010jl, acquired with Chandra, XMM-Newton, Suzaku, and Swift. Previous extensive X-ray studies of SN 2010jl have revealed that X-ray spectra are dominated by thermal emission, which likely arises from a hot plasma heated by a forward shock propagating into a massive circumstellar medium (CSM). Interestingly, an additional soft X-ray component was required to reproduce the spectra at a period of ∼1–2 years after the SN explosion. Although this component is likely associated with the SN, its origin remained an open question. We find a similar, additional soft X-ray component from the other two SNe IIn as well. Given this finding, we present a new interpretation for the origin of this component; it is thermal emission from a forward shock essentially identical to the hard X-ray component, but directly reaches us from a void of the dense CSM. Namely, the hard and soft components are responsible for the heavily and moderately absorbed components, respectively. The co-existence of the two components with distinct absorptions as well as the delayed emergence of the moderately absorbed X-ray component could be evidence for asphericity of the CSM. We show that the X-ray spectral evolution can be qualitatively explained by considering a torus-like geometry for the dense CSM. Based on our X-ray spectral analyses, we estimate the radius of the torus-like CSM to be on the order of ∼5 × 1016 cm. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
