8 Ec= 6679 eV +/- 1 eV ( systematic error~ +- 5 eV): The G-ratio decreases as decreasing plasma temperature. It also decreases with temperature due to the contribution of satellite line. Thus we can constrain the plasma temperature kT using the center energy. The results are: kT = 3.2 keV +3 -1 keV ( Vapec) kT = 7.5 keV +∞ -3 keV ( VMEKAL) This is just the XRS science, hence our GC study make more clear strategy for the NeXT, the corner stone project in Japan.

This methodology to determine the electron temperature (kTe) at the Fe energy is possible only with Suzaku. Our new method constrains the Continuum shape, hence can separate the Non-thermal components.
