  1. The Onion-like Metallicity Structure of Tycho’s SNR as revealed byDoppler Broadened Lines Asami Hayato (RIKEN / Tokyo Univ. of Sci.) T. Tamagawa, H. Yamaguchi (RIKEN), A. Furuzawa, H. Kunieda (Nagoya Univ.), M. Ozawa (Kyoto Univ.), J. P. Hughes (Rutgers Univ.), U. Hwang (NASA/GSFC), A. Bamba (ISAS/JAXA), K. Makishima (Univ. of Tokyo/RIKEN), and Suzaku Tycho’s SNR team

  2. Tycho’s SNR ◇ Originatedin the SN in 1572 ◇ Observed by Tycho Brahe ◇ Categorized as Type Ia ◇ Distance = ~3kpc ◇ Diameter = ~8 arcmin Ideal prototype of Type Ia SNRs

  3. Past Observations Fe Ka Si, S Low Temp (0.86 keV) High Ionization Age (1011cm-3 s) Fe L, Si, Fe Ka Fe Ka High Temp (1.6 keV) Low Ionization Age (109cm-3 s) ◇ Image Analysis ◇ Spectral Analysis ASCA (Hwang & Gotthelf 97) ASCA (Hwang+98) Si Fe K XMM-Newton (Decucell+01) Si Fe K

  4. Suzaku Observation ◇ Observation Date: June 27-29, 2006 (SWG time) Exposure: 95 ks ◇ XIS Image ◇ Spectrum of Entire SNR ◇ Non-thermal emission ⇒ Tamagawa+09 ◇ Low abund. metals (Cr, Mn) ⇒ Poster XIII-30 (Tamagawa+), Tamagawa+09 ◇ Onion-like Structure ⇒ This talk XIS HXD Si (He-like) Ka, Fe Ka,>7keV

  11. Summary ◇ Suzaku observed Tycho’s SNR inJune 2006. ◇ Line broadening was detected at the center of the SNR. ◇ We successfully derived velocities of ejecta for the first time, assuming the shell expansion model. ◇ Si and S ejecta have higher velocities (~3500 km s-1) than Fe ejecta (~3000 km s-1). ◇ We are looking forward to see the data from SXS/Astro-H !
