Japanese historical records of SNRs and SUZAKU observation of SN1006

This talk explores the Japanese historical records of SN1006 and other supernova remnants, as well as the Suzaku observation of SN1006. The historical records of astronomical phenomena in Ancient China and Japan are discussed, along with the role of diaries in documenting these events. The talk also highlights the importance of Suzaku, the 5th Japanese X-ray astronomical satellite, in studying SN1006 and cosmic ray acceleration. The talk will be given by Hiroya Yamaguchi and Katsuji Koyama from Kyoto University, and Junko Hiraga and Aya Bamba from RIKEN.

  3. Historical record of SNRs

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

  5. 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）”. 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. 藤原定家 Teika Fujiwara (1162-1241) 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. One possibility was the star of “Kijin-Shogun” (= Chariots and General) suddenly lighten? 騎官 (kikan) 騎陣将軍 (Kijin-Shogun) Lupusκ

  8. Crab nebula 後冷泉院 天喜二年四月中旬以降 丑時 客星觜参度見東方 孛天関星 大如歳星 Chandra image of Crab In the reign-period of Goreizei-In, after the middle of April, 2nd year of Tenki (= May-June, 1054), a guest star appeared nearby “Shi” and “Shin” (= Orion) in eastern sky at 2:00. It shined near to the star of “Tenkan”, and its size was comparable to Jupiter. 天関 (Tenkan) Taurusζ 觜, 参= Orion

  9. 3C58 高倉院 治承五年六月廿五日庚午戌時 客星見北方近王良守伝舎星 Chandra image of 3C58 In the reign-period of Takakura-In, June 25th, 5th year of Jisyou (= August 7th, 1181), a guest star appeared in northern sky at 20:00. 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

  10. “Meigetsuki” was designated as a national treasure in 2000. It is preserved by Reizei-ke（冷泉家）, descendant of Teika Fujiwara. Kyoto Univ. Very near ! (～2km) Reizei-ke Kyoto Gyoen Kamo river

  11. Introduction of Suzaku

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

  18. 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 ! 10’ ASCA image of SN1006

  19. 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 (～107 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/kTe)・nenpV Line: Iz∝ nenzV ne = electron density, np = proton density nz = ion density, V = volume of emission region

Northern rim He-O kTe vs. net (for H-O/He-O=0.2) Line intensity: Eastern rim > Northern rim → Density: Eastern rim > Northern rim H-O/He-O ratio: Eastern rim = Northern rim → Temperature: Eastern rim < Northern rim

  30. More detailed analysis and discussion Non-thermal emission Higher energy electrons exist in Northern rim ?
