Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The soft X-ray spectrometer (SXS) on board ASTRO-H, which had been launched on 17 Feb. 2016, opened a new research field with its extremely high energy-resolution for diffuse extended celestial objects. In this work, we investigated a completely new method for estimation of dark-matter distribution in galaxy-clusters, which is a measurement of the spatial distribution of gravitational red shift, by computer simulations with a realistic response function of the SXS. We concluded that a reasonable observation could make the new method to be possible. Also, we took part in the pre-flight function test and the calibration of the SXS. We confirmed that SXS achieved the high energy-resolution less than 5eV (FWHM) in flight operation.
