Chandara, XMM-Newton
[Award] Dr. Katsuda received the 7th Young Scientist Award of the Physical Society of Japan.
勝田さんが第７回日本物理学会若手奨励賞を受賞しました。この賞は、将来の物 理学を担う優秀な若手研究者の研究を奨励し、学会をより活性化するた めに、 日本物理学会が 2007 年に設けたものです。毎年一回、日本物理学会の各領域の 若手数名（学会全体で 50 名を上限）に授与されます。勝田さんは、X線天文衛 星「チャンドラ」及び「ニュートン」を用い、若い超新星残骸の運動学的研究に おいて先駆的成果を挙げま した。この業績に対して、宇宙線・宇宙物理領域 （実験部門）での受賞となりました。 詳細は、 http://www.jps.or.jp/activities/awards/wakate.html http://www.icrr.u-tokyo.ac.jp/JPSCR/index.htmlをご覧下さい。 Dr. Katsuda received the 7th Young Scientist Award of the Physical Society of Japan.

Katsuda's paper on the Cygnus Loop has been accpected for publication in The Astrophysical Journal Letters.
Dr. Katsuda and a team of scientist have discovered a pulsar wind nebula candidate in the Cygnus Loop supernova remnant, based on X-ray observations with Suzaku and XMM-Newton. While the origin of the Cygnus Loop has been believed to be a core-collapse of a massive star, no neutron star associated with the remnant has been […]
Katsuda's paper on Puppis A has been accpected for publication in The Astrophysical Journal.
Dr. Katsuda and a team of scientists have revealed high-resolution X-ray spectra of the Galactic supernova remnant Puppis A, using the XMM-Newton Reflection Grating Spectrometer. The X-ray spectra are found to show peculiar features that cannot be reproduced by thermal emission model. It is suggested that such anomalous spectral features are due to charge-exchange emission.

Konami's paper on NGC3079 has been accepted.
Konami, who is a D3 student, have succeeded in compiling a paper on metal abundances in the hot plasma of starburst galaxy NGC3079, is accepted by PASJ. The detail is shown in http://arxiv.org/abs/1205.6005. Also, Konami et al. gave an oral presentation about this topic at an international conference, Mapping "Oxygen in the Universe" (http://www.iac.es/congreso/oxygenmap/pages/home.php), held in Tenerife island during […]
Katsuda attended Frascati Workshop 2011
Dr. Katsuda attended an international conference, Frascati Workshop 2011 "Multifrequency Behaviour of High Energy Cosmic Sources" (http://workshop2011.iasf-roma.inaf.it/), held at the Vulcano island (Italy) during May 23-28 in 2011, and gave an oral presentation. Katsuda and collaborators observed Galactic supernova remnants with Chandra (NASA) and XMM-Newton (ESA), and succeeded in measuring direct motions of shock waves […]
