騎官 (kikan)

如螢惑（ Mars ）

On May 1st 1006, a great guest star appeared in “Kikan” (the Oriental name of the constellations Lupus and Centaurus).It was very bright like Mars, and visible in the southern sky in every night.

appeared to the left of qibla. at the beginning of the month

Ali ibn Ridwan （ Egypt ） ：　 2.5 to 3 times as large as Venus.

The intensity of its light was a littlemore than a quarter of that moonlight.(5/5?)

Discovery of Ar, Ca and Fe Lines

In normal cases, we can determine the chemical compositions using the conventional plasma code. The plasma code has been made based on the laboratory plasma physics. However,

This spectrum is very unusual, hence can notbe applied by the conventional plasma code.What is unusual, what is the difference between this plasma and those in the other SNRs ?

If we see this spectrum in the other SNRs, most of the X-ray Astronomers believe that these two-lines are He-like and H-like Ka. This is true for any SNRs other than SN1006 .

We found Kγ 、 Kδ 　 lines at 730 eV and 820 eV This is very surprising (no plasma code !) High electron temperature (kTe ~ 1.5 [keV] ), butHe-like is in low ionization states (kTi ~ 0.15 [keV])

SN1006 is the “youngest” SNR in our Galaxy!

SN1006

Taking these non-equilibrium effects into account, we modified the conventional plasma codes, and fit the spectrum . It was very complicated job, hence

1) kTe=0.54 (0.52-0.58) keV, net= 6.7×109 :solar abundance

2) kTe = 1.2 (1.1-1.3) keV, net = 1.3×1010 :over abundance

3) kTe = 1.5 (1.5-1.6) keV, net = 7.4×108 : over abundance

2) kTe = 1.2 (1.1-1.3) keV, net = 1.3×1010 = Ejecta1

3) kTe = 1.5 (1.5-1.6) keV, net = 7.4×108 = Ejecta2

Conclusion

(1) We discovered Ar, Ca and Fe Lines for the first time

(2) We found extremely non-equilibrium between electron temperature and ionization temperature.

(3) The ejecta consists of two plasma components: One has almost identical abundance profile to that of the theoretical prediction of type Ia SNR, and the other has lower abundance in Fe.

The former would be due to an inner part of the SNR and the latter is due to an outer part.
