Suzaku observations of clusters of galaxies

Matsushita, K.; Suzaku SWG Team

We review results of Suzaku observations of the intracluster medium of clusters of galaxies whose O, Mg, Si, S and Fe abundances have been measured with good accuracy due to the good energy resolution and low background. Metal mass-to-light ratios were derived and we will discuss the origin of the metals. We also review the results of the search f…

X-Ray observations of the Galactic Centre with Suzaku

Koyama, K.; Nobukawa, M.; Mori, H. +2 more

We report on the diffuse X-ray emission from the Galactic Centre (GCDX) observed with the X-ray Imaging Spectrometer (XIS) on board the Suzaku satellite. The highly accurate energy calibration and extremely low background of the XIS provide many new facts on the GCDX. These are (1) the origin of the lines at 6.7 and 7.0 keV is collisional excitati…
