My talk plan The Japanese historical records of SN1006 and other supernova remnants. Introduction of Japanese satellite “Suzaku”. Report of the Suzaku observation of SN1006. Summary

Historical record of SNRs

Astronomical records (auroras, eclipse, shooting star and etc.) were frequently appeared after 7th century. The exchange between China and Japan was very active. 煬帝 Yang Di 聖徳太子 Shotoku-taishi (assistance of emperor) 遣隋使 (Kenzuishi) The mission to China Astronomical knowledge and thought Ancient China and Japan

In 12-13th century, Teika Fujiwara (Japanese noble and poet) collected the ancient astronomical records, and noted them in his diary “Meigetsuki (明月記) ”. 藤原定家 Teika Fujiwara (1162-1241) He started to write the diary when he was 19 years old, and continued for 56 years. In those days, diaries had the role of the records of the ceremony, political affairs, and disasters. Unusual astronomical phenomena (supernovae, eclipses, comets, and shooting stars) were believed as the predictions of famines, epidemics, and floods.

It was very bright like Mars, and visible in the southern sky every night.

It shined near to the star of “Tenkan”, and its size was comparable to Jupiter. 觜, 参 = Orion 天関 (Tenkan) Taurusζ

It was near to the star of “Oh-Ryo” (= real person’s name of ancient China) and “Densya”. 王良 (Oh-Ryo) Cassiopeiaβ 伝舎 (Densya) = Camelopardalis

Introduction of Suzaku

The 5th Japanese X-ray astronomical satellite. It was launched on July 10th 2005. Suzaku is “Red Chinese Phoenix”, the protector God of the South. The wall painting of Suzaku in “Kitora” tomb 朱雀 (Suzaku)

Suzaku observation of SN1006

Cosmic ray accelerator Koyama et al. (1995) discovered synchrotron X-ray from the shell of SN1006. → Indication of ~ 100TeV electrons SNRs are cosmic ray accelerator ! Unsolved problem The environment of accelerating place ‥ Plasma temperature, density, and so on. Essential information to understand the acceleration mechanism. Temperature ‥ 0.1 - 1 keV We don’t know accurate value, Density ‥ 0.1 - 10 cm -3 nor positional dependence. Suzaku XIS-BI (high efficiency and good energy resolution) is the best instrument to resolve this problem ! ASCA image of SN1006 10’

Thermal X-ray from SNRs We can get the information of temperature and density from thermal X-ray spectrum of SNR ! Shock front of SNR heats the matter up to a temperature of a few keV ( ~ 10 7 K), and emits X-rays (bremsstrahlung and line emissions). Electron temperature ‥ the shape of the bremsstrahlung continuum Density ‥ the flux of the continuum and the line emissions Brems: I(ν) ∝ (hν) -0.4 exp(-hν/kT e ) ・ n e n p V Line: I z ∝ n e n z V n e = electron density,n p = proton density n z = ion density, V = volume of emission region
