We aim to investigate the boundary layer structure with SS Cyg, the brightest dwarf nova, by means of a soft X-ray component with the BI CCD, a fluorescent Fe K-alpha line with the FI CCDs, and a continuum reflection by the white dwarf surface with the HXD PIN. It is of great use to observe states of a different mass accretion rate, and hence we propose to observe both in quiescence and in outburst. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | A | MANABU ISHIDA | JAP | 0 | SWG | SS CYG OBSERVATION IN QUIESCENCE | N | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/400006010/ | Quick Look | |||

Our goal is to map the physical conditions in the accretion disk as the source evolves through the various continuum states using the spectral diagnostics available in the Fe K fluorescence emission. Measurements of the Fe K emission will allow us to quantify the thermal, kinematic, and geometric conditions in both the disk and the surrounding material. Correlating the Fe K diagnostics with sensitive measurements of the direct and reprocessed continuum emission will allow us to map the evolving conditions and constrain models of the dynamic accretion processes in black hole binaries. We will monitor 7 targets with the RXTE. This observation will be triggered when one becomes active. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | A | JEAN COTTAM | JAP | 0 | SWG-TOO | FE K SPECTROSCOPY OF TRANSIENT BLACK HOLE BINARIES | HXD | N | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/400010020/ | Quick Look | ||

These spectral studies will provide greater understanding of the physical properties of, and physical processes occurring in, the planet's magnetosphere.

We propose to examine the fundamental system parameters; the jet's mass-outflow rate and the total X-ray luminosity. The ionized or blue-shifted iron absorption edge recently discovered with XMM-Newton indicates either the absorber is photo-ionized by a hidden X-ray as luminous as 1E39 erg/s, or is moving along with the jet. SS433 may be an ultra-luminous source if seen face-on, or an unobserved cool component may coexist in the X-ray jet. The spectral continuum over 10 keV to be obtained with the HXD and the absorption edge by the XIS will reveal the nature of the absorber. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | A | NOBUYUKI KAWAI | JAP | 1 | AO1 | SS 433 OBSERVATIONS OF THE HARD X-RAY CONTINUUM AND THE IRON ABSORPTION EDGE | XIS | N | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/401004010/ | Quick Look | ||

We propose a temporal and spectroscopic study of this peculiar X-ray source that was regarded as a "cooling" isolated NS. The previous Chandra/Newton observations reported "harmonic absorption" lines at 0.7, 1.4 and 2.1keV. Possible interpretations are electron cyclotron lines at B = 10^{10} G, ionic transition lines at 10^{12-13} G, and proton cyclotron lines at 10^{14} G. These are inconsistent each other. The highest B-field could suggest that the source is a member of "magnetars". Alternative explanation is the source might be a "strange" star with a lower mass. Suzaku observation of these line features should be the most powerful tool to investigate B field of this very peculiar object. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | B | ATSUMASA YOSHIDA | JAP | 1 | AO1 | A STUDY OF A PECULIAR X-RAY SOURCE 1E1207.4-5209 | XIS | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/401030020/ | Quick Look | ||

Fe fluorescence is produced by illumination of the photosphere by ionizing coronal X-rays and its intensity depends on the height of the X-ray source. We propose to observe Fe fluorescence in the single G-type giant HR 9024 and in the active RS CVn system II Peg to obtain a direct geometrical constraint on the scale height of their coronal structures. These two stars have the brightest Fe fluorescence features of all the late-type stars observed by the Chandra-HETGS and their different stellar parameters (stellar radius, gravity, multiplicity,..) and evolutionary stage will allow us to probe the typical coronal scale for significantly different conditions. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | B | PAOLA TESTA | USA | 1 | AO1 | GEOMETRY DIAGNOSTICS FROM FE FLUORESCENT EMISSION IN LATE-TYPE EVOLVED STARS | XIS | N | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/401032010/ | Quick Look | ||

Our experiment is designed to distinguish between X-rays originating in the mass transfer stream and those originating in the extended circumbinary envelope. Modeling of XIS spectra will allow us to constrain the plasma temperature and emission measure, while the light curve with three exposures and high count rates will probe variability at around the 1% level over both the orbital timescale (13 days) and dynamical flow timescales (hours).

In neutron star LMXBs, the boundary layer may hold additional key information for distinguishing between various proposed models for the hard state spectrum. With the aim to improve our understanding of the evolution of the boundary layer, we propose to observe the neutron star LMXB 4U 1636-536 with Suzaku in different spectral states.

This is larger than Galactic interstellar column density and much larger than the optical extinction would imply, so the absorbing material must be concentrated on X-ray source. These may form an entirely new class with a common origin, or may simply be the highly obscured tail of the distribution of High and Low Mass X-ray Binaries. We propose to observe three these sources along with two new possibilities from the Swift BAT survey.

Some recent observational results, however, seem to contradict this prediction, and suggest that the shock height may be of the same order as the white dwarf radius. The shock height is an important quantity for the post-shock plasma in that it is deeply related to the mass accretion rate, heating and cooling mechanism of the post-shock plasma and so on. We therefore propose to observe two of the brightest intermediate polars EX Hya and V1223 Sgr to measure their shock height directly in terms of the reflection spectrum from the HXD-PIN and the iron K-shell structure from the XIS. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | A | MANABU ISHIDA | JAP | 2 | AO2 | MEASUREMENT OF THE SHOCK HEIGHT IN INTERMEDIATE POLARS | HXD | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/402002010/ | Quick Look | ||

Observations with both the Chandra HETGS and XMM-Newton spectrometers revealed line emission from a photoionized plasma. The spectral features are consistent with the predictions for emission from an accretion disk corona. However, with the present data it is impossible to determine whether the emission originates in the corona or in a localized region of the disk. We propose to observer 2S 0921-630 with Suzaku at four orbital phases in order to localize and identify the emitting plasma.

Over the past few years, INTEGRAL has found a surprising number of HMXBs, and the large number of new, locally absorbed supergiant HMXBs indicate that these wind-accretors are more common than previously thought. In addition to high column densities, some of these systems have other extreme properties such as slowly rotating neutron stars (NSs) or rapid X-ray flares. For the systems we propose to observe, detection of pulsations is important for establishing the presence of a NS and for constraining the spin period distribution for HMXB NSs. As these are strong hard X-ray emitters, we will take advantage of Suzaku's broadband capabilities. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | B | JOHN TOMSICK | USA | 2 | AO2 | LOOKING FOR SIGNATURES OF HIGH MAGNETIC FIELD NEUTRON STARS IN INTEGRAL HMXBS | XIS | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/402066010/ | Quick Look | ||

The time resolution of HXD is able to provide the pulse profiles and the phase-resolved spectra in hard X-rays emissions.

This target object has almost constant luminosity and is expected to be state of ADAF. Assuming that we observe the object using HXD and XIS of the Suzaku for 50ks, we can investigate the soft X-ray emission from the NS and/or the accretion disk and hard X-ray tail. Comparing Black Body and Disk Black Body parameters of this object with that of fainter source, 4U 1700+24, we obtain a picture of accretion disk and accretion flow. If we measure the photon index and cutoff energy of the hard tail, we can reveal the physical condition of corona surrounding the NS or the disk. Only Suzaku can carry out this observation which observe soft-thermal and hard-nonthermal X-ray emission from faint source. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | C | OSAMU NAGAE | JAP | 3 | AO3 | ELUCIDATION OF THE ADAF OBSERVING LOW LUMINOUS NEUTRON STAR X-RAY BINARY IGR J16194-2810 | HXD | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/403024010/ | Quick Look | ||

This star has a highly structured surface magnetic field at around 500 G, and its unusually hard emission has been associated with wind confinement in closed magnetic loops. Our proposal is to test this claim. The surface field sports a torus-like structure of closed loops with a magnetic axis that is tilted by nearly 90 degrees from the stellar rotation axis. We selected six phases to optimize the detection of hard X-ray variability from occultation of hot plasma confined in the torus field arrangement as it rotates about the star. The Suzaku data will be important for confronting models of interactions between line-driven winds and magnetic fields in massive stars. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | A | RICHARD IGNACE | USA | 3 | AO3 | X-RAYS FROM MAGNETICALLY CONFINED HOT PLASMA IN TAU SCO | XIS | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/403034030/ | Quick Look | ||

These features would originate from plasma extremely embedded in the primary winds and acceleration of high energy particles at the wind colliding region.

It is already known that there is a high energy cutoff at around 150 keV in the hard state of black hole candidates (BNCs). Additional non-thermal spectrum above 300 keV has sometimes been verified by gamma-ray observatories. Some NS binaries exhibit a 'hard state' which shows X-ray properties similar to those observed in hard state BHCs. Their cutoff energies (~50 keV) are systematically lower than those of BHCs, but firm detections of non-thermal emissions are not reported so far. This proposal is aimed at the first detection of the non-thermal hard tail from this source in the steady 'hard state', and verification of its possible jet origin via simultaneous radio, near-IR, and optical observations. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | B | KAZUTAKA YAMAOKA | JAP | 4 | AO4 | SEARCH FOR A NON-THERMAL HARD TAIL FROM THE NEUTRON STAR BINARY GS 1826-238 | HXD | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/404007010/ | Quick Look | ||

GRXE has a hard tail above ~10 keV and three iron emission lines from different ionization states. Recently, INTEGRAL discovered dozens of magnetic Cataclysmic Variables (mCVs), which are considered to contribute the GRXE hard tail. This year, we studied mCVs with Suzaku for the hard tail and the iron lines, and found that mCVs cannot explain the structure of iron lines of GRXE. If GRXE is a superposition of numerous point sources, other contributors which have strong He-like iron line are needed. Non-mCVs have generally a strong He-like iron line, and some non-mCVs have hard tail emission. We propose to investigate non-mCVs which are expected to have hard tail. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | B | KEI SAITOU | JAP | 4 | AO4 | IRON LINE SPECTROSCOPY AND HARD TAIL DETECTION OF NON-MAGNETIC CATACLYSMIC VARIABLES | XIS | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/404021010/ | Quick Look | ||

These lines can be used to set tight constrains on the accretion disk geometry and the radius of the neutron star. In two of these systems, the inner radius of the accretion disk as inferred from the line profile appears to be consistent with the radius inferred from the frequency of the kilohertz quasi-periodic oscillations (kHz QPOs). However, contemporaneous measurements in one of these systems appear to contradict this picture. We propose to observe 4U 1820-30 with Suzaku, simultaneously with RXTE. Our program will sample a wide range of inner disk radii and thereby explore the combined use of Fe K-alpha lines and kHz QPOs to probe strong gravity in X-ray binaries. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | A | MANUEL LINARES | EUR | 4 | AO4 | ACCRETION DISKS IN STRONG GRAVITY: FE LINES VS.

We will investigate the presence of X-ray narrow absorption features in the Suzaku spectra, which are a signature of a disk wind. Such features, identified with ions such as Fe XXV and Fe XXVI, have been observed in a number of LMXBs and give us information about the mass outflow rate and the launching mechanism of the wind. We will study the connection of the disk wind to the presence of radio jet emission with simultaneous radio observations. Finally, we will determine if the broad Fe emission line indicated by the XMM-Newton spectrum is relativistically broadened.

Suzaku has observed some magnetars during Key Project (AO-4) and ToO observations. As a result, soft X-ray emissions and hard X-ray tails have been detected from ~10 magnetars. This peculiar spectrum is seem to be common in all the magnetars, and we discovered the spectral evolution of magnetars. The remaining problem is to study the spectral difference between the active and quiescent states. Transient magnetar 1E 1547.0-540 was observed with Suzaku in 2009 January, and the extremely hard X-ray tail was detected up to 110 keV with photon index of 1.5, and it is appropriate to study the spectral change. Thus, we propose the observation of 1E 1547.0-5408 with 50 ks. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | B | HIROYUKI NISHIOKA | JAP | 5 | AO5 | OBSERVATION OF THE HARD X-RAY TAIL AND SOFT X-RAY EMISSION OF AXP 1E 1547.0-5408 IN QUIESCENT STATE | HXD | N | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/405024010/ | Quick Look | ||

The lack of correlation between the X-ray flux and the torque applied to the neutron star before the transition, challenges our understanding of the physical mechanisms operating in this system.

The first objective is to detect hard X-ray emission in magnetar burst spectra as seen in a previous SGR 0501+4516 burst spectrum. The second goal is to detect persistent emission in active phases. It is important to compare spectral characteristics in active phases with those in non-active phases.

Our Suzaku Cycle 5 observation confirms it to be an absorbed hard X-ray source, powered by accretion. It is thus a nearby, lower accretion rate analogue of the hard X-ray bright symbiotic stars such as T CrB and CH Cyg. During Suzaku Cycle 6, 4 Dra is near apastron and near the inferior conjunction of the accreting white dwarf: both these should reduce the absorption due to the M giant, while absorption by the accretion flow near the white dwarf should remain roughly comparable. We therefore propose a second Suzaku observation of 4 Dra to constrain the relative contributions of these two X-ray absorbers, and to obtain a high signal-to-noise spectrum of a symbiotic star boundary layer near 1 keV. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | C | KOJI MUKAI | USA | 6 | AO6 | A SUZAKU OBSERVATION OF 4 DRA NEAR INFERIOR CONJUNCTION | XIS | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/406041010/ | Quick Look | ||

This object has an extraordinarily long spin period, ~5 hour, attributed to the neutron star (NS) rotation, making 4U 1954+31 the slowest-rotating accreting NS binary. It raises a question about its binary evolution, since a slowly rotating NS orbiting an M-type giant is quite unique. As to its large variability, the popular clumpy wind model has not yet become a smoking-gun, and we propose an alternative hypothesis that the NS is a magnetar descendent captured by an M-type giant in their closer encounter. Known X-ray properties of 4U~1954+31 will be revisited in a view of gated accretion onto the strongly magnetized NS. A 60 ks Suzaku observation can examine these scenarios. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | B | TERUAKI ENOTO | USA | 6 | AO6 | THE SLOWEST ROTATING PULSAR 4U 1954+31 | XIS | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/406046010/ | Quick Look | ||

To probe this requires accurate measurements of neutron star radii and masses. We have recently shown that broad relativistic Fe emission lines in neutron star low-mass X-ray binaries can be used to constrain the neutron star radius. These sources also provide another tool, kHz quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs). Combining a measurement of the velocity of the gas in the inner disk (from the Fe line) and the frequency of the kHz QPOs provides a method to measure the neutron star mass if kHz QPOs originate at the inner disk. We propose 100 ksec observations of GX 349+2 and GX 17+2 to provide a detailed Fe line profile. Simultaneously, we will also observe with RXTE to detect the kHz QPOs, allowing us to test this technique. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | A | EDWARD CACKETT | EUR | 6 | AO6 | EXPLORING THE IRON LINE - KHZ QPO CONNECTION | XIS | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/406070010/ | Quick Look | ||

From the X-ray source catalog with the ASCA Galactic plane survey, we have selected four candidates for such aged magnetars, and propose to observe them for 40 ksec each.

GRS 1915+105 has been considered to be the unique black hole binary that stays at a high mass accretion rate and shows limit-cycle oscillations, but it was recently discovered that the BHC IGR J17091-3624 has exactly the same X-ray variability patterns as GRS 1915+105. This fact suggests an evidence for common physical mechanism in both system. The Suzaku observation will reveal both similarity and difference with GRS 1915+105 from a point of view of broad-band spectral properties and disk wind, and help us understanding of the accretion flow onto a black hole under a high mass accretion rate. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | B | KAZUTAKA YAMAOKA | JAP | 7 | AO7 | SUZAKU BROADBAND OBSERVATION OF "THE SECOND GRS 1915+105" IGR J17091-3624 | XIS | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/407037010/ | Quick Look | ||

The origins of cosmic-rays are a long standing mystery for just 100 years in AO-7 phase from a discovery by Hess. One of the most important milestones recently is the discovery of a hint of "a WD pulsar" in the AE Aquarii system with Suzaku, because number density of this class is much larger than those of famous acceleration sites like SNRs, NS pulsars, etc. The next step is to detect non thermal emissions from isolated WDs. We search for promising objects from a large sample of white dwarfs by SDDS survey, and finally found three isolated magnetized WDs; EUVE J1439+75.0, PG 1658+440 and EUVE J0823-25.4.

Existing data appear consistent with this expectation, given the considerable uncertainties usually associated with the white dwarf masses of individual systems. Here we propose Suzaku observations of 5 dwarf novae for which very high or very low white dwarf mass estimates have been published. These targets provide the best opportunity of further establishing the mass-temperature correlation.

Upcoming large-scale surveys will likely reveal many such objects, but to identify them it is crucial to fully understand their properties. X Per, the archetypal source of this class, at 1 kpc from Earth is ideal target for detailed studies. In spite of that X Per is still puzzling. With the proposed program we aim to study X Per in detail, constrain its X-ray spectrum also as a function of the spin phase.

Since the toroidal field is hidden in the stellar interior, it was thought to be undetectable via the well-known p-pdot method and the cyclotron resonance scattering features. However, a magnetic stress of the magnetar toroidal field is strong enough to distort the stellar shape and produce a free precession in its X-ray pulse timing if the emission pattern deviates from its axis of symmetry. From our analyses of magnetar 4U 0142+61, we found an evidence on the free precession in the hard X-ray component.

Earlier XMM-Newton, Suzaku and INTEGRAL observations found interesting features in the extremely hard X-ray band: i) a flat spectral component above 9 keV toward the flux maximum; ii) strong 15-20 keV emission during an occultation of the wind-wind colliding plasma; iii) stable power-law emission above 25 keV. These features are signs of the highest energy processes yet detected in any colliding wind binary. Broad band X-ray observations around periastron are essential to understanding those features. We therefore propose Suzaku observations at 5 key phases around the next periastron passage of eta Carinae in 2014.6. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | A | KENJI HAMAGUCHI | USA | 9 | AO9 | PROBING THE HIGHEST ENERGY PHENOMENA OF ETA CARINAE AROUND PERIASTRON IN 2014 | XIS | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/409026010/ | Quick Look | ||

This state features a hard X-ray spectrum, a high level of timing noise, and emission from a steady jet at radio, IR, and perhaps higher frequencies. Along with our multi-wavelength, radio to X-ray, program, Suzaku observations can constrain theoretical models by answering the following questions: Does the inner edge of the accretion disk recede in the hard state? How is the location of the disk's inner edge related to the presence of a jet?

This theory was verified in multi-waveband observations of SS Cyg. The DN U Gem, however, does not follow this scenario, and the hard X-ray intensity increases in outburst as well as soft X-ray emission. We propose ToO observations of U Gem both in quiescence and in outburst in order to understand behavior of DNe in X-rays in general, by means of detailed spectroscopy of the soft disk blackbody component, the hard component reflected off the white dwarf, and a 6.4 keV iron line.

Possible interpretations are electron cyclotron lines at B = 10^{10} G, ionic transition lines at 10^{12-13} G, and proton cyclotron lines at 10^{14} G. These are inconsistent each other. The highest B-field could suggest that the source is a member of "magnetars". Alternative explanation is the source might be a "strange" star with a lower mass.

Their X-ray emission is typically very soft. Recently, however, 4 symbiotics have been detected out to almost 100 keV. Suzaku observations of two of these sources revealed that the hard X-rays emanated from an extremely hot thermal plasma. One means of producing such hot gas is accretion onto a near Chandrasekhar-mass WD. We propose to use the unique capabilities of Suzaku to test this hypothesis. We will use broad-band X-ray spectral fitting to determine the temperature of the hot plasma, hard X-ray timing studies to search for or constrain rapid variations due to either magnetic or non-magnetic accretion, and Fe line diagnostics to investigate the role of scattering. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | B | JENNIFER SOKOLOSKI | USA | 2 | AO2 | ARE HARD X-RAY SYMBIOTICS PROGENITORS OF TYPE IA SUPERNOVAE? | HXD | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/402040010/ | Quick Look | ||

However the equation of state (EOS) in the WDs which determines the WD mass limit have not been cleared. Especially, a EOS involving Landau quantization allows WDs to exceed 1.4 solar mass and approach 3.3 solar mass.

With WD masses dynamically measured, we can estimate the WD radii without any theoretical mass-radius relation.

Observations made in the first two years of the NuSTAR mission have raised the interesting possibility that the inner disk inclination may differ from the orbital inclination, and this could occur if the black hole spin is misaligned. The proposed NuSTAR/Suzaku observation would be at the orbital phase where absorption due to stellar wind material is at a minimum, providing a clean measurement of the iron line profile and a significant improvement over the existing observations. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | A | JOHN TOMSICK | USA | 10 | AO10 | THE INNER ACCRETION DISK AROUND THE RAPIDLY ROTATING BLACK HOLE IN CYGNUS X-1 | XIS | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/410018010/ | Quick Look | ||

It is plausible to assume that the same energetic particle population is responsible for the emission in both bands. Suzaku is optimally suited to establish the likely non-thermal nature of the X-ray spectrum and to search for the high-energy end of the emitting particle spectrum, which is likely visible in the HXD domain. The observations will help to clarify the nature of HESS J1731-347, which may be a new type of Galactic particle accelerator. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | A | GERD PUEHLHOFER | EUR | 1 | AO1 | THE HIGH ENERGY PARTICLE SPECTRUM OF THE TEV/X-RAY NEBULA HESS J1731-347 | XIS | N | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/401099010/ | Quick Look | ||

Over the past few years, INTEGRAL has found a surprising number of HMXBs, and the large number of new, locally absorbed supergiant HMXBs indicate that these wind-accretors are more common than previously thought. In addition to high column densities, some of these systems have other extreme properties such as slowly rotating neutron stars (NSs) or rapid X-ray flares. For the systems we propose to observe, detection of pulsations is important for establishing the presence of a NS and for constraining the spin period distribution for HMXB NSs. As these are strong hard X-ray emitters, we will take advantage of Suzaku's broadband capabilities. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | B | JOHN TOMSICK | USA | 2 | AO2 | LOOKING FOR SIGNATURES OF HIGH MAGNETIC FIELD NEUTRON STARS IN INTEGRAL HMXBS | XIS | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/402065020/ | Quick Look | ||

This was nicely illustrated with the discovery of Fe XXV and Fe XXVI absorption lines in all the dipping LMXBs observed with XMM and Chandra. It revealed the existence of a highly-ionized atmosphere above the disk which is likely present in any LMXB but only detectable in the ones seen close to edge-on. We propose to observe two recently discovered dipping binaries with Suzaku, to constrain the basic astrophysical properties (orbital period, distance, variability, high energy cutoff, etc) of these yet poorly observed sources, and to further investigate the ionized atmosphere in X-ray binaries in general. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | B | LAURENCE BOIRIN | EUR | 3 | AO3 | NEW DIPPING X-RAY BINARIES TO PROBE ACCRETION DISKS AND THEIR IONIZED ATMOSPHER | XIS | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/403072010/ | Quick Look | ||

If the averaged IP spectrum shows any discrepancy with that of the GDXE, the "point-source origin" explanation for the GDXE would face a lack of appropriate hard X-ray source populations.

One of the best laboratories for studying winds is in wind fed Supergiant High Mass X-ray binaries. Using the neutron star (NS) as a backlight, variable absorption in X-rays measures column density variations in the secondary star wind. A recent explosion in the number of known HMXBs has defined two additional subclasses of HMXBs, potentially related through geometry and wind properties: 1) heavily obscured sources and 2) so-called Supergiant Fast X-ray Transients (SFXTs). We propose observations of 2 obscured sgHMXBs and 2 SFXTs to monitor the column density. This will test wind models and probe whether these subclasses are related to one another and to classical HMXBs through wind parameters. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | C | DAVID MORRIS | USA | 4 | AO4 | PROBING DONOR STAR WIND STRUCTURE IN HMXBS THROUGH VARIABLE ABSORPTION | XIS | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/404056010/ | Quick Look | ||

In two of these systems, the inner radius of the accretion disk as inferred from the line profile appears to be consistent with the radius inferred from the frequency of the kilohertz quasi-periodic oscillations (kHz QPOs). However, contemporaneous measurements in one of these systems appear to contradict this picture. We propose to observe 4U 1820-30 with Suzaku, simultaneously with RXTE.

They belong to a class of O stars which show significantly weaker mass loss than predicted by the theory of radiation-driven winds. In this respect they resemble the first generation of stars in the early universe, which presumably had only weak winds due to their low metallicity. As explanation for the weak-wind phenomenon it has been suggested that X-rays affect the ionization balance and thus lead to a reduction of the wind-driving force. To check this hypothesis the proposed Suzaku observations are needed. The new data will allow us to discriminate between possible mechanisms for the generation of X-rays, such as magnetic wind confinement or dynamical friction, and serve as input parameters in numerical models. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | A | LIDIA OSKINOVA | EUR | 5 | AO5 | STRONG EXPLORATION OF WEAK STELLAR WINDS WITH SUZAKU | XIS | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/405060010/ | Quick Look | ||

The origins of cosmic-rays are a long standing mystery for just 100 years in AO-7 phase from a discovery by Hess. One of the most important milestones recently is the discovery of a hint of "a WD pulsar" in the AE Aquarii system with Suzaku, because number density of this class is much larger than those of famous acceleration sites like SNRs, NS pulsars, etc. The next step is to detect non thermal emissions from isolated WDs. We search for promising objects from a large sample of white dwarfs by SDDS survey, and finally found three isolated magnetized WDs; EUVE J1439+75.0, PG 1658+440 and EUVE J0823-25.4.

Existing data appear consistent with this expectation, given the considerable uncertainties usually associated with the white dwarf masses of individual systems. Here we propose Suzaku observations of 5 dwarf novae for which very high or very low white dwarf mass estimates have been published. These targets provide the best opportunity of further establishing the mass-temperature correlation.

As reported by Sekiguchi et al. 2009 and Reitberger et al. 2012 based on Suzaku and Fermi data respectively, the system shows intense non-thermal emission extending from 20 keV to 200 GeV. Although detailed mechanism of this non-thermal emission has been clarified yet, it is now obvious that electrons and highly probably protons are accelerated to high energies by the collision of stellar winds. The aim of the present observation is to measure the spectral shape and flux of the non-thermal hard X-ray tail with the HXD, and compare with previous Suzaku observations. Based on a time variability (or non-variability), we examine proposed acceleration and emission mechanisms. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | B | TAKAYUKI YUASA | JAP | 8 | AO8 | DETAILED SPECTROSCOPY OF NON-THERMAL HARD X-RAY EMISSION OF ETA CARINAE | XIS | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/408018020/ | Quick Look | ||

However, extensive optical observations also show a longer stable period of 3027s. The former is most likely the orbital period, and the latter the superhump period caused by the precession of an elliptical accretion disk at a period of 3.9 days, representing the beat period between optical and X-ray periods. The morphology of the X-ray dips does indeed change dramatically over several days, but existing data suggest a somewhat longer period for the dip morphology cycle of 4.7 days. Here we propose a 300ks Suzaku observation of XB1916-053 with as few interruptions as possible, to conduct a definitive timing and spectroscopic study of its disk emission and dipping activity. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | B | ALAN SMALE | USA | 9 | AO9 | THE PRECESSING DISK IN THE DIPPING X-RAY BINARY XB1916-053 | XIS | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/409032010/ | Quick Look | ||

We will constrain the broadband spectrum, check for signs of wind accretion (variable absorption, log-normal count rate distribution), search for an iron fluorescence line, update the pulse period evolution, and compare to other Suzaku observations of SyXBs, especially to a quiescent observation of the prototype SyXB 4U 1954+31. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | A | KATJA POTTSCHMIDT | USA | 9 | AO9 | THE SYMBIOTIC X-RAY BINARY SCUTUM X-1 | XIS | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/409033020/ | Quick Look | ||

Suzaku allows measurement of ADC temperature via the high energy cut-off and can give the first detection of cooling by soft photons from the neutron star from the change of cut-off energy during bursts. Curve-of-growth analysis gives the absorber temperature and tests our suggestion that absorption lines are formed in the ADC.

These 3 objects are members of a subclass of symbiotics characterized by rapid optical flickering, and in some cases jets, recurrent nova eruptions, and high-mass white dwarfs possibly headed toward supernova Type Ia explosion. The origin of the hard X-ray emission from these accreting white dwarfs is a mystery. Broad-band X-ray observations, which only Suzaku can provide, are needed to bridge the gap between existing soft and hard X-ray spectra. We propose to perform such Suzaku observations of RT Cru, T CrB, and RS Oph to distinguish among thermal emission from a magnetic accretion column, non-thermal emission from a jet, or some unforeseen emission mechanism. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | A | JENNIFER SOKOLOSKI | USA | 1 | AO1 | THE NATURE OF HARD X-RAY SYMBIOTIC BINARIES | XIS | N | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/401043010/ | Quick Look | ||

This is larger than Galactic interstellar column density and much larger than the optical extinction would imply, so the absorbing material must be concentrated on X-ray source. These may form an entirely new class with a common origin, or may simply be the highly obscured tail of the distribution of High and Low Mass X-ray Binaries. We propose to observe three these sources along with two new possibilities from the Swift BAT survey.

Some recent observational results, however, seem to contradict this prediction, and suggest that the shock height may be of the same order as the white dwarf radius. The shock height is an important quantity for the post-shock plasma in that it is deeply related to the mass accretion rate, heating and cooling mechanism of the post-shock plasma and so on. We therefore propose to observe two of the brightest intermediate polars EX Hya and V1223 Sgr to measure their shock height directly in terms of the reflection spectrum from the HXD-PIN and the iron K-shell structure from the XIS. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | A | MANABU ISHIDA | JAP | 2 | AO2 | MEASUREMENT OF THE SHOCK HEIGHT IN INTERMEDIATE POLARS | HXD | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/402001010/ | Quick Look | ||

Measurements of the Fe K emission will allow us to quantify the thermal, kinematic, and geometric conditions in both the disk and the surrounding material. Correlating the Fe K diagnostics with sensitive measurements of the direct and reprocessed continuum emission will allow us to map the evolving conditions and constrain models of the dynamic accretion processes in black hole binaries.

QPO-phase-resolved Suzaku spectra will enable us to detect changes in the relativistic line profile (inner radius, equivalent width), to extend the connection to the broadband disk reflection spectrum, and to test models for the Fe line - QPO connection. Moreover, at CCD resolution, the connection can be used to over-constrain disk radii - a first step toward mapping the inner disk. We therefore request a 37 ksec TOO observation of GRS 1915+105.

This star has a highly structured surface magnetic field at around 500 G, and its unusually hard emission has been associated with wind confinement in closed magnetic loops. Our proposal is to test this claim. The surface field sports a torus-like structure of closed loops with a magnetic axis that is tilted by nearly 90 degrees from the stellar rotation axis. We selected six phases to optimize the detection of hard X-ray variability from occultation of hot plasma confined in the torus field arrangement as it rotates about the star. The Suzaku data will be important for confronting models of interactions between line-driven winds and magnetic fields in massive stars. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | A | RICHARD IGNACE | USA | 3 | AO3 | X-RAYS FROM MAGNETICALLY CONFINED HOT PLASMA IN TAU SCO | XIS | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/403034050/ | Quick Look | ||

To probe this requires accurate neutron star radii and masses. We recently showed that broad iron lines in neutron star low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs) constrain the neutron star radius. LMXBs also provide us with another tool, kHz quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs). Combining the inner disk velocity (from modeling the iron line) and the frequency of the kHz QPOs gives a method to measure the neutron star mass. We propose a 100 ks observation of Cyg X-2 with Suzaku to provide a detailed iron line profile. Combined with simultaneous observations with RXTE to determine the kHz QPO frequency, we will measure the neutron star mass. Cyg X-2 is the perfect test case as it already has a known mass from optical observations. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | B | EDWARD CACKETT | USA | 3 | AO3 | MEASURING NEUTRON STAR MASSES USING BROAD IRON LINES AND KHZ QPOS | XIS | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/403063010/ | Quick Look | ||

If the averaged IP spectrum shows any discrepancy with that of the GDXE, the "point-source origin" explanation for the GDXE would face a lack of appropriate hard X-ray source populations.

Using Suzaku we propose four 30 ksec observations of the transient 4U 1608-52 throughout an outburst. We will test how spectral parameters change with luminosity, allowing us to untangle the correct model. An essential part of this proposal is the unique ability of Suzaku to detect asymmetric broad iron emission lines in NSXRBs. We will study how the iron line varies throughout the outburst, which combined with the spectral fits will test the interaction between the accretion disk and corona. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | A | EDWARD CACKETT | USA | 4 | AO4-TOO | ACCRETION DISK EVOLUTION THROUGHOUT A NEUTRON STAR LMXB OUTBURST | HXD | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/404044020/ | Quick Look | ||

These lines can be used to set tight constrains on the accretion disk geometry and the radius of the neutron star. In two of these systems, the inner radius of the accretion disk as inferred from the line profile appears to be consistent with the radius inferred from the frequency of the kilohertz quasi-periodic oscillations (kHz QPOs). However, contemporaneous measurements in one of these systems appear to contradict this picture. We propose to observe 4U 1820-30 with Suzaku, simultaneously with RXTE.

The next step in this work is to move beyond fluxes, and tie the physical parameters of the disk to radio jet emission. Cygnus X-1 is bright and highly variable in both X-rays and radio bands; moreover, it is the only black hole that always permits two measurements of the disk (through disk continuum and broad Fe K disk line/reflection). We propose to observe Cygnus X-1 on 20 occasions for 15 ksec (each) during AO-4, simultaneously with the updated Ryle radio telescope.

However, we do not know what these point sources are, that have strong iron line emission. We have compared the GRXE iron line structure and those of cataclysmic variables (CVs) using Suzaku, and found that the CVs tend to emit stronger H-like line at 6.97 keV compared to the GRXE. We need another kind of sources which preferentially emit 6.7 keV line to explain the GRXE.

PSR B1259-63 is a young radio pulsar orbiting around a B2e star with a highly eccentric 3.4 yr orbit. Suzaku XIS+HXD measurements of the hard continuum emission from the binary system allow us to investigate particle acceleration in a highly variable environment as a result of interactions between the relativistic wind of the pulsar and the circumstellar disk of the Be star. With the advent of the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope, we will be able to simultaneously observe X-rays and GeV gamma-rays during the disk transit for the first time. The observations of PSR B1259-63 will give us a unique opportunity to study the physics of pulsar winds on AU-scale. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | A | YASUNOBU UCHIYAMA | USA | 5 | AO5 | SUZAKU BROADBAND OBSERVATIONS OF A GAMMA-RAY BINARY PSRB1259-63 DURING THE POST-PERIASTRON FLARE IN 2011 | XIS | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/405037010/ | Quick Look | ||

Under the commonly accepted interpretation, they can be used to set tight constrains on the accretion disk geometry. In two of these systems, the inner radius of the accretion disk as inferred from the line profile appears to be consistent with the radius inferred from the frequency of the kHz QPOs. We have recently shown that simultaneous measurements of Fe lines and kHz QPOs in a NS-LMXB appear to contradict this picture. We propose to observe 4U 1728-34 with Suzaku five times for 20 ks, simultaneously with RXTE and ATCA. This program will allow us to study and compare the dynamics of the inner edge of the disk as inferred from the Fe line and the kHz QPOs, as well as the relation of both observables with the jet radio emission. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | A | MANUEL LINARES | USA | 5 | AO5 | ACCRETION DISKS IN STRONG GRAVITY: FE LINES VS.

They belong to a class of O stars which show significantly weaker mass loss than predicted by the theory of radiation-driven winds. In this respect they resemble the first generation of stars in the early universe, which presumably had only weak winds due to their low metallicity. As explanation for the weak-wind phenomenon it has been suggested that X-rays affect the ionization balance and thus lead to a reduction of the wind-driving force. To check this hypothesis the proposed Suzaku observations are needed. The new data will allow us to discriminate between possible mechanisms for the generation of X-rays, such as magnetic wind confinement or dynamical friction, and serve as input parameters in numerical models. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | A | LIDIA OSKINOVA | EUR | 5 | AO5 | STRONG EXPLORATION OF WEAK STELLAR WINDS WITH SUZAKU | XIS | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/405059010/ | Quick Look | ||

The forces driving the spectral shape and variability of the Z sources are not well understood, as there are few detectors with the necessary capabilities. GX17+2 is a Sco-type Z sources with an unusual time-varying hard X-ray tail whose origin is uncertain. Bright X-ray sources also illuminate the interstellar medium. Highly absorbed X-ray sources show halos due to dust scattering as well as absorption features. These will allow us to place constraints on interstellar dust and gas models.

However, with the present data it is impossible to determine whether the emission originates in the corona or in a localized region of the disk.

This predicts a large population of aged magnetars to lurk in the Galactic plane as slowly rotating soft X-ray sources. From the X-ray source catalog with the ASCA Galactic plane survey, we have selected four candidates for such aged magnetars, and propose to observe them for 40 ksec each. We expect them to appear as faint soft X-ray sources with blackbody temperatures of 0.5 keV or so, possibly pulsating at periods of about 10 seconds.

These are white dwarfs accreting from a giant mass donor, unlike the less common class of symbiotic X-ray binaries in which the accretor is a neutron star. The X-ray spectra of the white dwarf symbiotics can be used to constrain the white dwarf mass and accretion rate. Here we focus on one object, Hen 3-1591, which belongs to a rare subclass of d'-type yellow symbiotic, commonly thought to harbor a young white dwarf.

NuSTAR is an upcoming (to be launched in Spring 2012) hard X-ray (5-80 keV) mission that will plan its schedule to obtain simultaneous coverage of Cyg X-1 with Suzaku. The observations will be used for both science and cross-calibration. The combination of Suzaku and NuSTAR will provide the best measurement of the reflection component, including a relativistically broadened iron line and a hard X-ray excess, and the information will be used to test emission models and constrain the Cyg X-1 accretion geometry. The XIS capabilities to measure the iron line are essential for the science, and the HXD coverage is essential for the cross-calibration. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | A | JOHN TOMSICK | USA | 7 | AO7 | CYGNUS X-1 WITH SUZAKU AND NUSTAR | XIS | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/407072010/ | Quick Look | ||

The presence of a O-type star in this source, and the variable character of the signal suggested that the source is a new gamma-ray binary system. Since it is expected that X-rays in these sources has the synchrotron origin, detailed X-ray observations are very important for understanding of the processes occurring in the system. However, sensitive observations of source in the X-ray energy bands are still missing. Therefore, we propose to observe the source with Suzaku. Since a long observational campaign is planned for 2012 by the HESS collaboration, the obtained X-ray, together with TeV, data will allow a proper modeling of the physical processes behind the non-thermal emission in system. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | B | HIROKAZU ODAKA | TAKAAKI TANAKA | JUS | 7 | AO7 | X-RAY OBSERVATION OF GAMMA-RAY BINARY 1FGL J1018.6-5856 | XIS | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/407096010/ | Quick Look | |

However, it is hardly understood due to the poor X-ray coverage which results from its short outburst duration and rapid intensity variations. Hence, we collaborate closely with VSNET, MAXI/GSC, Swift/XRT and Swift/BAT team for a rapid trigger. The moderate energy resolution and wideband energy coverage of Suzaku enable us to clarify the radiation mechanisms of V4641 Sgr.

In the BHB Cyg X-1, the spectra in low/hard state radiate from a cool accretion disk and a hot comptonizing corona. A spectra of NS in low/hard state would have the same structure as Cyg X-1, but it is hard to study the fine structure of the spectra because of low luminosity. Suzaku can determine the low temperature of the disk and the high temperature of the corona, thanks to wide-band and high sensitivity detectors: XIS/BI and HXD.

As reported by Sekiguchi et al. 2009 and Reitberger et al. 2012 based on Suzaku and Fermi data respectively, the system shows intense non-thermal emission extending from 20 keV to 200 GeV. Although detailed mechanism of this non-thermal emission has been clarified yet, it is now obvious that electrons and highly probably protons are accelerated to high energies by the collision of stellar winds. The aim of the present observation is to measure the spectral shape and flux of the non-thermal hard X-ray tail with the HXD, and compare with previous Suzaku observations. Based on a time variability (or non-variability), we examine proposed acceleration and emission mechanisms. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | B | TAKAYUKI YUASA | JAP | 8 | AO8 | DETAILED SPECTROSCOPY OF NON-THERMAL HARD X-RAY EMISSION OF ETA CARINAE | HXD | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/408018010/ | Quick Look | ||

Winds from each star collide and produce strong changes in the X-ray spectrum and the production of thick dust shells. All the orbital and stellar parameters are measured, so WR 140 is the best shock-physics laboratory known. X-ray observations are crucial to understand the hot shocked gas and the mass loss phenomena. WR140's next periastron passage is in Jan. 2009. We propose a series of Suzaku observations to precisely determine the change in the X-ray emitting plasma and in the cool absorbing wind from the WC7 star, and the amount of hard X-ray emission (E>20 keV) from particle acceleration in the shock.

This star has a highly structured surface magnetic field at around 500 G, and its unusually hard emission has been associated with wind confinement in closed magnetic loops. Our proposal is to test this claim. The surface field sports a torus-like structure of closed loops with a magnetic axis that is tilted by nearly 90 degrees from the stellar rotation axis. We selected six phases to optimize the detection of hard X-ray variability from occultation of hot plasma confined in the torus field arrangement as it rotates about the star. The Suzaku data will be important for confronting models of interactions between line-driven winds and magnetic fields in massive stars. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | A | RICHARD IGNACE | USA | 3 | AO3 | X-RAYS FROM MAGNETICALLY CONFINED HOT PLASMA IN TAU SCO | XIS | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/403034060/ | Quick Look | ||

Earlier XMM-Newton, Suzaku and INTEGRAL observations found interesting features in the extremely hard X-ray band: i) a flat spectral component above 9 keV toward the flux maximum; ii) strong 15-20 keV emission during an occultation of the wind-wind colliding plasma; iii) stable power-law emission above 25 keV.

Detection of nonthermal hard X-ray radiation is essentially important to solve the generation mechanism of stellar flares. UX Ari has a high coronal activity with a high temperature of ~2keV, and large stellar flares were frequently observed in the radio, UV, and X-ray band. Therefore, UX Ari is very suitable for hard X-ray observation of stellar flares. Large X-ray flares were observed by BeppoSAX, ASCA and Ginga sattellite, and hard X-ray emission upto ~50keV is detected by BeppoSAX. If a flare is large such as the events of former X-ray observations, we can detect the nonthermal hard X-ray emssion by Suzaku HXD. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | C | SHIN-NOSUKE ISHIKAWA | JAP | 4 | AO4 | STUDY ON GENERATION MECHANISM OF STELLAR FLARES BY HARD X-RAY OBSERVATION OF ACTIVE BINARY UX ARIETIS | HXD | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/404008010/ | Quick Look | ||

The abrupt rise in coronal luminosities from the warmer giants to their cooler cousins, only slightly further advanced in evolution, might signal disruption of a "fossil" magnetosphere by a newly born solar-like dynamo. Key discriminators are the coronal energy distribution, composition (FIP bias), and sporadic hard emission associated with flaring. The proposed targets are the brightest not previously observed in X-rays at CCD resolution, and both have supporting HST UV spectra. Expanding the high energy sample of this key class of objects is essential for probing their contrary, but perhaps deeply significant, behavior. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | B | THOMAS AYRES | USA | 4 | AO4 | ANOMALOUS CORONAE IN THE MIDST OF THE HERTZSPRUNG GAP | XIS | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/404034010/ | Quick Look | ||

Using Suzaku we propose four 30 ksec observations of the transient 4U 1608-52 throughout an outburst. We will test how spectral parameters change with luminosity, allowing us to untangle the correct model. An essential part of this proposal is the unique ability of Suzaku to detect asymmetric broad iron emission lines in NSXRBs.

These lines can be used to set tight constrains on the accretion disk geometry and the radius of the neutron star. In two of these systems, the inner radius of the accretion disk as inferred from the line profile appears to be consistent with the radius inferred from the frequency of the kilohertz quasi-periodic oscillations (kHz QPOs). However, contemporaneous measurements in one of these systems appear to contradict this picture. We propose to observe 4U 1820-30 with Suzaku, simultaneously with RXTE.

Earlier XMM-Newton and Swift BAT observations gave a hint of the presence of the hard X-ray emission above 10 keV. The broadband Suzaku spectrum will allow to establish its X-ray emission mechanism - non-thermal emission or reflection of thermal emission from a neutral surface. On this basis, we will be able to discriminate the mechanisms between the magnetic disk dynamo and the accretion on a compact star.

Another is a series of snap shot observations in orbital phase between the peaks. We aim to perform phase-resolved spectral analysis which is not possible with the Swift XRT data.

With the discovery that hard X-ray emission (E > 2 keV) is a common feature of WD symbiotics, that situation has finally changed. We propose to use Suzaku observations of 3 typical symbiotics with hard X-ray emission to test the hypothesis that such emission emanates from an accretion-disk boundary layer. With the proposed observations, we will determine whether the WD's magnetic field is high enough to disrupt the accretion flow, and estimate the WD mass and accretion rate. This work has implications for the study of accretion in wide binaries and symbiotics stars as progenitors of SNIa. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | B | JENNIFER SOKOLOSKI | USA | 8 | AO8 | X-RAYS FROM THE ACCRETION FLOWS IN SYMBIOTIC STARS | XIS | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/408032010/ | Quick Look | ||

It is famous for a variety of uncommon and puzzling periodic photometric and spectroscopic variabilities. Tovmassian, Zharikov & Neustroev (2007) proposed that the precession of a fast-rotating magnetically accreting white dwarf can successfully explain these phenomena.

We plan to investigate the broad-band X-ray spectrum by performing a detailed spectroscopic and timing analysis in the energy range 0.4-100 keV. The main scientific aims of this observation are to detect and study the iron Kalpha line at 6.4-7 keV, simultaneously with the expected iron edge at 7-9 keV, emission lines at lower energy (such as S, Ar and Ca at 2.62 keV, 3.31 keV and 3.90 keV, respectively), and either a Compton reflection hump at 20-40 keV or a hard tail at energy above 25 keV (depending of the state of the source), thanks to the broad-band capabilities of Suzaku. This will allow to infer and probe the origin of these components, which is still debated. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | A | ELISE EGRON | EUR | 8 | AO8 | BROAD-BAND SPECTRAL ANALYSIS AND STUDY OF THE DISK REFLECTION COMPONENT IN 4U 1735-44 WITH SUZAKU | XIS | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/408043030/ | Quick Look | ||

However, extensive optical observations also show a longer stable period of 3027s. The former is most likely the orbital period, and the latter the superhump period caused by the precession of an elliptical accretion disk at a period of 3.9 days, representing the beat period between optical and X-ray periods. The morphology of the X-ray dips does indeed change dramatically over several days, but existing data suggest a somewhat longer period for the dip morphology cycle of 4.7 days. Here we propose a 300ks Suzaku observation of XB1916-053 with as few interruptions as possible, to conduct a definitive timing and spectroscopic study of its disk emission and dipping activity. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | B | ALAN SMALE | USA | 9 | AO9 | THE PRECESSING DISK IN THE DIPPING X-RAY BINARY XB1916-053 | XIS | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/409032020/ | Quick Look | ||

Over the past few years, INTEGRAL has found a surprising number of HMXBs, and the large number of new, locally absorbed supergiant HMXBs indicate that these wind-accretors are more common than previously thought. In addition to high column densities, some of these systems have other extreme properties such as slowly rotating neutron stars (NSs) or rapid X-ray flares. For the systems we propose to observe, detection of pulsations is important for establishing the presence of a NS and for constraining the spin period distribution for HMXB NSs.

We have selected three IPs that are of particularly high priority. They have all been detected as hard (E>10 keV) X-ray sources; they all have a hot (kT~100 eV), blackbody-like component; none have been studied simultaneously over a wide band-pass. We therefore propose 80 ksec observations each of V2400 Oph, 1RXS J154814.5-452845, and 1RXS J213344.1+510725, with an additional 40 ksec background observation for V2400 Oph. We plan to analyze the average and phase-resolved spectra to determine the strength of the reflection continuum; the highest temperature present in the plasma; and the details of the complex absorber. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | A | KOJI MUKAI | USA | 1 | AO1 | BROAD-BAND SPECTROSCOPY OF INTERMEDIATE POLARS: FROM THE SOFT COMPONENT TO REFLECTION | HXD | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/401037010/ | Quick Look | ||

Winds from each star collide and produce strong changes in the X-ray spectrum and the production of thick dust shells. All the orbital and stellar parameters are measured, so WR 140 is the best shock-physics laboratory known. X-ray observations are crucial to understand the hot shocked gas and the mass loss phenomena. WR140's next periastron passage is in Jan. 2009. We propose a series of Suzaku observations to precisely determine the change in the X-ray emitting plasma and in the cool absorbing wind from the WC7 star, and the amount of hard X-ray emission (E>20 keV) from particle acceleration in the shock.

These may form an entirely new class with a common origin, or may simply be the highly obscured tail of the distribution of High and Low Mass X-ray Binaries.

Because the these emissions are almost 100% pulsed component, so using the pulse on-off method, we can achive the ultimate sensitivity not depending on the reproducibility of the background but depending only on the photon statistics.

Our preferred model involves a resurrection of the double-thermal model for the soft state. The results have ramifications for such issues as neutron star ISCOs, the structure of the accretion boundary layer, and the radiative efficiency of the hard state (jets). Suzaku instruments can test and refine the model directly, with a focus on spectral fits rather than a reliance on model performance arguments.

EXO 2030+375 is a 42-second Be/X-ray pulsar in an eccentric 46-day orbit. If confirmed the ~10 keV cyclotron feature will be the lowest in energy known for an accreting pulsar and will provide the missing piece to make EXO 2030+375 an ideal candidate to observationally test accretion theory. In addition, we will measure EXO 2030+375's spin frequency, study its pulse shape versus energy, and perform phase resolved spectroscopy. Suzaku will allow these studies to reach lower energies and provide high quality spectra at lower luminosities than in any previous observations. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | A | COLLEEN WILSON | USA | 2 | AO2 | CONSTRAINING CYCLOTRON FEATURES IN A NORMAL OUTBURST OF EXO 2030+375 | HXD | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/402068010/ | Quick Look | ||

The next step in this work is to move beyond fluxes, and tie the physical parameters of the disk to radio jet emission. Cygnus X-1 is bright and highly variable in both X-rays and radio bands; moreover, it is the only black hole that always permits two measurements of the disk (through disk continuum and broad Fe K disk line/reflection). We propose to observe Cygnus X-1 on 20 occasions for 15 ksec (each) during AO-4, simultaneously with the updated Ryle radio telescope.

This star has a highly structured surface magnetic field at around 500 G, and its unusually hard emission has been associated with wind confinement in closed magnetic loops. Our proposal is to test this claim. The surface field sports a torus-like structure of closed loops with a magnetic axis that is tilted by nearly 90 degrees from the stellar rotation axis. We selected six phases to optimize the detection of hard X-ray variability from occultation of hot plasma confined in the torus field arrangement as it rotates about the star.

The GRXE has a hard-tail above ~15 keV, which was considered to be an evidence of non-thermal cosmic-ray interaction. On the other hand, Suzaku recently revealed that the GRXE iron line feature is composed of three narrow emission lines, whose origin is unknown yet. Recently, INTEGRAL discovered dozens of previously unknown cataclysmic variables (CVs) which are bright above ~15 keV, while their spectral characteristics below 10 keV are hardly known. If there are a large number of such hard CVs, they may account for ~100 % of the GRXE above ~15 keV. If so, these sources should have similar iron line feature as the GRXE, which we are proposing to investigate. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | B | KEN EBISAWA | JAP | 3 | AO3 | IRON LINE SPECTROSCOPY OF THE HARD CATACLYSMIC VARIABLES DISCOVERED BY INTEGRAL | XIS | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/403026010/ | Quick Look | ||

These features would originate from plasma extremely embedded in the primary winds and acceleration of high energy particles at the wind colliding region. To resolve these features clearly, broad band Suzaku observations around the periastron passage are crucial. We propose four 30 ksec Suzaku observations of Eta Carinae during AO3, which will cover the next X-ray maximum (in late 2008) and minimum (in early 2009). | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | A | KENJI HAMAGUCHI | USA | 3 | AO3 | X-RAY EMISSION FROM ETA CARINAE DURING THE X-RAY MAXIMUM AND MINIMUM | HXD | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/403037010/ | Quick Look | ||

However, their quiescent spectra are complicated due to the presence of an additional power-law, and because variability has been seen on timescales as short as 100s. The nearest known neutron star LMXB Cen X-4 gives us the clearest view of these objects. But, the best observation so far lacked the sensitivity to determine the cause of the variability. Yet, the cause has important ramifications for measuring neutron star radii - if it is the thermal (rather than power-law) component that is varying our picture of quiescent emission may be wrong. To solve this critical problem we propose a 150 ksec observation of Cen X-4 with Suzaku. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | A | EDWARD CACKETT | USA | 3 | AO3 | UNCOVERING VARIABLE QUIESCENT EMISSION IN THE NEUTRON STAR CEN X-4 | XIS | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/403057010/ | Quick Look | ||

This job was performed by our group. "Can magnetized white dwarfs accelerate particles like neutron stars?" This is the basic question of this study as a long standing mystery of Cosmic-ray origin for near 100 years. To ensure our result with Suzaku, we triggered the guest observation of AE Aquarii in TeV gamma-ray band with the recent powerful telescope, H.E.S.S., in their first GO program on 2009. Here, we propose the simultaneous observation with Suzaku and H.E.S.S, to distinguish the acceleration site in and/or outer of the binary system using X-ray and TeV gamma-ray flux informations. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | A | YUKIKATSU TERADA | JAP | 4 | AO4 | SUZAKU, H.E.S.S., OPTICAL SIMULTANEOUS OBSERVATION OF THE WHITE DWARF PULSAR, AE AQUARII | HXD | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/404001010/ | Quick Look | ||

GRXE has a hard tail above ~10 keV and three iron emission lines from different ionization states. Recently, INTEGRAL discovered dozens of magnetic Cataclysmic Variables (mCVs), which are considered to contribute the GRXE hard tail. This year, we studied mCVs with Suzaku for the hard tail and the iron lines, and found that mCVs cannot explain the structure of iron lines of GRXE. If GRXE is a superposition of numerous point sources, other contributors which have strong He-like iron line are needed. Non-mCVs have generally a strong He-like iron line, and some non-mCVs have hard tail emission. We propose to investigate non-mCVs which are expected to have hard tail. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | B | KEI SAITOU | JAP | 4 | AO4 | IRON LINE SPECTROSCOPY AND HARD TAIL DETECTION OF NON-MAGNETIC CATACLYSMIC VARIABLES | XIS | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/404022010/ | Quick Look | ||

If the averaged IP spectrum shows any discrepancy with that of the GDXE, the "point-source origin" explanation for the GDXE would face a lack of appropriate hard X-ray source populations.

Using Suzaku we propose four 30 ksec observations of the transient 4U 1608-52 throughout an outburst. We will test how spectral parameters change with luminosity, allowing us to untangle the correct model. An essential part of this proposal is the unique ability of Suzaku to detect asymmetric broad iron emission lines in NSXRBs. We will study how the iron line varies throughout the outburst, which combined with the spectral fits will test the interaction between the accretion disk and corona. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | A | EDWARD CACKETT | USA | 4 | AO4-TOO | ACCRETION DISK EVOLUTION THROUGHOUT A NEUTRON STAR LMXB OUTBURST | HXD | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/404044030/ | Quick Look | ||

A theoretical calculation predicts a fast rise of the mass accretion at the Suzaku first window of 2013 September and a maximum at the 2014 Spring window.

Recent observations by the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope and follow-up observations in other wavelengths revealed that the gamma-ray source is a new member of the rare gamma-ray binary class with an orbital period of 16 days. We propose two types of observations with Suzaku. One is a continuous observation of a sharp X-ray peak found in the lightcurve by the Swift XRT. Another is a series of snap shot observations in orbital phase between the peaks. We aim to perform phase-resolved spectral analysis which is not possible with the Swift XRT data. We also compare the Swift XRT lightcurve with new lightcurves taken by Suzaku in order to test the repeatability of the X-ray orbital modulation. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | B | TAKAAKI TANAKA | USA | 7 | AO7 | SUZAKU OBSERVATIONS OF A NEWLY DISCOVERED GAMMA-RAY BINARY: 1FGL J1018.6-5856 | XIS | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/407069010/ | Quick Look | ||

An aim of this observation is to reveal a physical model of the NSB low/hard state in a same analogy of Black-Hole Binary (BHB) low/hard state. In the BHB Cyg X-1, the spectra in low/hard state radiate from a cool accretion disk and a hot comptonizing corona. A spectra of NS in low/hard state would have the same structure as Cyg X-1, but it is hard to study the fine structure of the spectra because of low luminosity. Suzaku can determine the low temperature of the disk and the high temperature of the corona, thanks to wide-band and high sensitivity detectors: XIS/BI and HXD.

How is the location of the disk's inner edge related to the presence of a jet? This proposal includes the use of Suzaku, NuSTAR, and radio observations to address these questions.

Correlating the Fe K diagnostics with sensitive measurements of the direct and reprocessed continuum emission will allow us to map the evolving conditions and constrain models of the dynamic accretion processes in black hole binaries.

Although many observations have been made by different instruments in the space, their spectra and magnetic field are yet to be well understood. The first scientific goal is the detection of proton cyclotron structures. It allows us a direct measurement of a magnetic field intensity. The second scientific goal is to reveal the burst spectral shape in a wide-band and to find out common properties to magnetars, i.e., SGRs and AXPs. We will trigger the Suzaku observation when one of the following two criteria is satisfied; 1) the burst activity becomes high state, or 2) the giant flare occurs. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | A | YUJIN NAKAGAWA | JAP | 1 | AO1-TOO | PROTON CYCLOTRON STRUCTURE AND BROADBAND SPECTRA OF "SGR" | HXD | N | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/401022010/ | Quick Look | ||

Doppler shifts expected at the inner disk around such neutron stars should be very similar, and should produce relativistic FeK-alpha emission lines like those observed in some black hole systems. To date, however, relativistically broadened FeK-alpha emission lines have not been clearly detected in neutron star systems, in part because their lines are generally weaker than those found in black hole systems. We propose to observe the neutron star binaries 4U 1820-30, Cygnus X-2, and Serpens X-1 for 37 ksec each in Suzaku Cycle 1, to confirm possible evidence of relativistic broadening.

Their slow rotation periods, unprecedented for their apparent youth, point to enormous surface magnetic fields, a thousand times stronger than the typical inferred radio-pulsar field. The origin of the X-ray emission from these pulsars is still being debated. The recent discovery of a hard nonthermal pulsed X-ray emission from 1E 1841-045 with RXTE well beyond 10keV, can probably be explain by a magnetospheric origin and should extend above 100keV.

Suzaku instruments can test and refine the model directly, with a focus on spectral fits rather than a reliance on model performance arguments.

The GRXE has a hard-tail above ~15 keV, which was considered to be an evidence of non-thermal cosmic-ray interaction. On the other hand, Suzaku recently revealed that the GRXE iron line feature is composed of three narrow emission lines, whose origin is unknown yet. Recently, INTEGRAL discovered dozens of previously unknown cataclysmic variables (CVs) which are bright above ~15 keV, while their spectral characteristics below 10 keV are hardly known.

These features would originate from plasma extremely embedded in the primary winds and acceleration of high energy particles at the wind colliding region. To resolve these features clearly, broad band Suzaku observations around the periastron passage are crucial. We propose four 30 ksec Suzaku observations of Eta Carinae during AO3, which will cover the next X-ray maximum (in late 2008) and minimum (in early 2009). | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | A | KENJI HAMAGUCHI | USA | 3 | AO3 | X-RAY EMISSION FROM ETA CARINAE DURING THE X-RAY MAXIMUM AND MINIMUM | HXD | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/403036010/ | Quick Look | ||

These lines can be used to set tight constrains on the accretion disk geometry and the radius of the neutron star. In two of these systems, the inner radius of the accretion disk as inferred from the line profile appears to be consistent with the radius inferred from the frequency of the kilohertz quasi-periodic oscillations (kHz QPOs). However, contemporaneous measurements in one of these systems appear to contradict this picture. We propose to observe 4U 1820-30 with Suzaku, simultaneously with RXTE. Our program will sample a wide range of inner disk radii and thereby explore the combined use of Fe K-alpha lines and kHz QPOs to probe strong gravity in X-ray binaries. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | A | MANUEL LINARES | EUR | 4 | AO4 | ACCRETION DISKS IN STRONG GRAVITY: FE LINES VS.

The next step in this work is to move beyond fluxes, and tie the physical parameters of the disk to radio jet emission. Cygnus X-1 is bright and highly variable in both X-rays and radio bands; moreover, it is the only black hole that always permits two measurements of the disk (through disk continuum and broad Fe K disk line/reflection). We propose to observe Cygnus X-1 on 20 occasions for 15 ksec (each) during AO-4, simultaneously with the updated Ryle radio telescope.

This predicts a large population of aged magnetars to lurk in the Galactic plane as slowly rotating soft X-ray sources. From the X-ray source catalog with the ASCA Galactic plane survey, we have selected four candidates for such aged magnetars, and propose to observe them for 40 ksec each. We expect them to appear as faint soft X-ray sources with blackbody temperatures of 0.5 keV or so, possibly pulsating at periods of about 10 seconds.

The current best explanation of its origin is inverse-Compton cooling of particles accelerated in the wind-wind collision shock, and if so this would be the first detection of non-thermal X-ray emission from any Wolf-Rayet system. However, other mechanisms cannot be excluded because the observed intensity was stronger than expected from the observed radio luminosity.

The source exhibits regular outbursts once per orbit. Several of these outbursts have been observed in the past showing that the spectral shape remains constant between outbursts. Since we were able to improve the orbital ephemeris it is possible to predict future outbursts of the source. The source is currently (MJD 56245) exhibiting a giant type II outburst showing that the companion has ejected large amounts of material. We therefore propose to observe the system after this outburst to check for spectral and temporal changes and to study the iron line complex to derive the amount and ionization state of the material. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | A | INGO KREYKENBOHM | EUR | 8 | AO8 | MEASURING THE RESIDUAL MATERIAL IN GRO J1008−57 AFTER THE GIANT OUTBURST | XIS | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/408044010/ | Quick Look | ||

After initial flaring in the 1970s, the source generally exhibited low flux levels and has only rarely been observed. We will constrain the broadband spectrum, check for signs of wind accretion (variable absorption, log-normal count rate distribution), search for an iron fluorescence line, update the pulse period evolution, and compare to other Suzaku observations of SyXBs, especially to a quiescent observation of the prototype SyXB 4U 1954+31. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | A | KATJA POTTSCHMIDT | USA | 9 | AO9 | THE SYMBIOTIC X-RAY BINARY SCUTUM X-1 | XIS | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/409033010/ | Quick Look | ||

One possible explanation for the absence of observed pulsations is that the pulsed signal is beamed in directions other than our line of sight. This can be tested using Suzaku by searching for pulsations in the iron K line. This line is formed efficiently under almost all conditions of ionization and temperature, and so represents an X-ray bolometer which should respond to pulsed X-rays no matter where they are pointed. We plan to make such a search, and to probe the other properties of the wind and compact object in this system by observing with Suzaku for 80 ks away from eclipse. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | A | TIMOTHY KALLMAN | USA | 1 | AO1 | IRON LINE VARIABILITY IN 4U1700-37 | XIS | N | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/401058010/ | Quick Look | ||

Doppler shifts expected at the inner disk around such neutron stars should be very similar, and should produce relativistic FeK-alpha emission lines like those observed in some black hole systems. To date, however, relativistically broadened FeK-alpha emission lines have not been clearly detected in neutron star systems, in part because their lines are generally weaker than those found in black hole systems. We propose to observe the neutron star binaries 4U 1820-30, Cygnus X-2, and Serpens X-1 for 37 ksec each in Suzaku Cycle 1, to confirm possible evidence of relativistic broadening.

We recently discovered cool accretion disks extending close to the innermost stable circular orbit in the hard states of two black hole transients. Such disks could give rise to strong reflection features, but instead these are weak or not detected. We propose a 70 ks Suzaku observation of Swift J1753.5-0127 (one of the two transients), which is currently in a prolonged hard state. Our goal is to put tight constraints on the strength of the reflection features and increase our understanding of the geometry of the spectrally hard component. Understanding accretion onto compact objects is fundamental to NASA's "SEU" theme. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | A | JEROEN HOMAN | USA | 2 | AO2 | CONSTRAINING REFLECTION FEATURES IN THE HARD STATE OF BLACK HOLE X-RAY BINARIES | XIS | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/402088010/ | Quick Look | ||

With XMM-Newton RGS, X-rays from Mars are suggested to have two components: one due to fluorescent scattering of solar X-rays in its atmosphere and the other due to the solar wind charge exchange in its exosphere. X-rays thus can be a new probe to study the puzzling Martian exosphere that holds key information about how the Martian air has been lost. With XIS, we can detect the emission lines with the highest photon statistics ever. For the first time, we will observe the solar wind near the Mars simultaneously with Mars Express and extract information about the exosphere. This will be the first X-ray observation of Mars at solar minimum when the exosphere is expected to be dense and X-rays from the exosphere will largely increase. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | A | YUICHIRO EZOE | JAP | 3 | AO3 | SUZAKU OBSERVATION OF X-RAY EMISSION LINES FROM THE MARTIAN EXOSPHERE INDUCED BY THE SOLAR WIND CHARGE EXCHANGE | XIS | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/403006180/ | Quick Look | ||

The GRXE has a hard-tail above ~15 keV, which was considered to be an evidence of non-thermal cosmic-ray interaction. On the other hand, Suzaku recently revealed that the GRXE iron line feature is composed of three narrow emission lines, whose origin is unknown yet. Recently, INTEGRAL discovered dozens of previously unknown cataclysmic variables (CVs) which are bright above ~15 keV, while their spectral characteristics below 10 keV are hardly known. If there are a large number of such hard CVs, they may account for ~100 % of the GRXE above ~15 keV. If so, these sources should have similar iron line feature as the GRXE, which we are proposing to investigate. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | B | KEN EBISAWA | JAP | 3 | AO3 | IRON LINE SPECTROSCOPY OF THE HARD CATACLYSMIC VARIABLES DISCOVERED BY INTEGRAL | XIS | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/403029010/ | Quick Look | ||

The next step in this work is to move beyond fluxes, and tie the physical parameters of the disk to radio jet emission. Cygnus X-1 is bright and highly variable in both X-rays and radio bands; moreover, it is the only black hole that always permits two measurements of the disk (through disk continuum and broad Fe K disk line/reflection). We propose to observe Cygnus X-1 on 20 occasions for 15 ksec (each) during AO-4, simultaneously with the updated Ryle radio telescope.

However, we do not know what these point sources are, that have strong iron line emission. We have compared the GRXE iron line structure and those of cataclysmic variables (CVs) using Suzaku, and found that the CVs tend to emit stronger H-like line at 6.97 keV compared to the GRXE. We need another kind of sources which preferentially emit 6.7 keV line to explain the GRXE. We propose to study iron line structures of four active binary candidates from the XTE Slew Survey catalog, which are candidates of the 6.7 keV line sources. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | B | KEN EBISAWA | JAP | 5 | AO5 | QUEST FOR THE 6.7 KEV LINE SOURCES TO EXPLAIN THE GALACTIC RIDGE EMISSION | XIS | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/405030010/ | Quick Look | ||

Shocks might occur in the ejecta, and X-rays were detected from its spatially-resolved expanding shell like a miniature supernova remnant. The immediate purposes of this program are (1) to derive the X-ray flux and luminosity after its last outburst in 2011, (2) to diagnose plasma temperature deeply, and (3) to obtain the second sample of non-thermal X-ray emission from classical nova remnants.

Although these are known to be soft X-ray sources from the ROSAT All-sky Survey, there has never been a pointed observation with an imaging X-ray telescope of either object.

In neutron star LMXBs, the boundary layer may hold additional key information for distinguishing between various proposed models for the hard state spectrum. With the aim to improve our understanding of the evolution of the boundary layer, we propose to observe the neutron star LMXB 4U 1636-536 with Suzaku in different spectral states. The high-sensitivity broadband coverage provided by Suzaku will be used to follow the evolution of the boundary layer and study other phenomena that might constrain the accretion flow properties.

A key discriminator is the coronal energy distribution, especially enhanced and sporadic hard emission associated with flaring.

In addition to high column densities, some of these systems have other extreme properties such as slowly rotating neutron stars (NSs) or rapid X-ray flares. For the systems we propose to observe, detection of pulsations is important for establishing the presence of a NS and for constraining the spin period distribution for HMXB NSs.

Compared to other persistent supergiant X-ray pulsars it has been less well observed, although it is a prime target to study the interaction of the neutron star's X-rays with the stellar wind and the accretion column. The latter has been confirmed by our 60ks AO1 observation which allowed for the first detection of a soft excess below 2keV as well as the determination of the paramters of the fundamental cyclotron line with unprecedented accuracy. Due to an unusually low source state during the AO1 exposure, however, an additional observation of 65ks is needed to perform the first phase resolved analysis of this interesting source. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | B | KATJA POTTSCHMIDT | USA | 2 | AO2 | THE BROAD BAND SPECTRUM OF 4U 1907+09 | HXD | N | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/402067010/ | Quick Look | ||

The abrupt rise in coronal luminosities from the warmer giants to their cooler cousins, only slightly further advanced in evolution, might signal disruption of a "fossil" magnetosphere by a newly born solar-like dynamo. Key discriminators are the coronal energy distribution, composition (FIP bias), and sporadic hard emission associated with flaring. The proposed targets are the brightest not previously observed in X-rays at CCD resolution, and both have supporting HST UV spectra. Expanding the high energy sample of this key class of objects is essential for probing their contrary, but perhaps deeply significant, behavior. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | B | THOMAS AYRES | USA | 4 | AO4 | ANOMALOUS CORONAE IN THE MIDST OF THE HERTZSPRUNG GAP | XIS | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/404035010/ | Quick Look | ||

GRXE has a hard tail above ~10 keV and three iron emission lines from different ionization states. Recently, INTEGRAL discovered dozens of magnetic Cataclysmic Variables (mCVs), which are considered to contribute the GRXE hard tail. This year, we studied mCVs with Suzaku for the hard tail and the iron lines, and found that mCVs cannot explain the structure of iron lines of GRXE. If GRXE is a superposition of numerous point sources, other contributors which have strong He-like iron line are needed. Non-mCVs have generally a strong He-like iron line, and some non-mCVs have hard tail emission. We propose to investigate non-mCVs which are expected to have hard tail. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | B | KEI SAITOU | JAP | 4 | AO4 | IRON LINE SPECTROSCOPY AND HARD TAIL DETECTION OF NON-MAGNETIC CATACLYSMIC VARIABLES | XIS | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/404020010/ | Quick Look | ||

Recent progress has been made, but relies on RXTE data which lacks the low energy sensitivity where disk emission is most prominent. Using Suzaku we propose four 30 ksec observations of the transient 4U 1608-52 throughout an outburst. We will test how spectral parameters change with luminosity, allowing us to untangle the correct model. An essential part of this proposal is the unique ability of Suzaku to detect asymmetric broad iron emission lines in NSXRBs. We will study how the iron line varies throughout the outburst, which combined with the spectral fits will test the interaction between the accretion disk and corona. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | A | EDWARD CACKETT | USA | 4 | AO4-TOO | ACCRETION DISK EVOLUTION THROUGHOUT A NEUTRON STAR LMXB OUTBURST | HXD | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/404044010/ | Quick Look | ||

The next step in this work is to move beyond fluxes, and tie the physical parameters of the disk to radio jet emission. Cygnus X-1 is bright and highly variable in both X-rays and radio bands; moreover, it is the only black hole that always permits two measurements of the disk (through disk continuum and broad Fe K disk line/reflection). We propose to observe Cygnus X-1 on 20 occasions for 15 ksec (each) during AO-4, simultaneously with the updated Ryle radio telescope.

This theory was verified in multi-waveband observations of SS Cyg. The DN U Gem, however, does not follow this scenario, and the hard X-ray intensity increases in outburst as well as soft X-ray emission. We propose ToO observations of U Gem both in quiescence and in outburst in order to understand behavior of DNe in X-rays in general, by means of detailed spectroscopy of the soft disk blackbody component, the hard component reflected off the white dwarf, and a 6.4 keV iron line.

Recent observations by the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope and follow-up observations in other wavelengths revealed that the gamma-ray source is a new member of the rare gamma-ray binary class with an orbital period of 16 days. We propose two types of observations with Suzaku. One is a continuous observation of a sharp X-ray peak found in the lightcurve by the Swift XRT. Another is a series of snap shot observations in orbital phase between the peaks. We aim to perform phase-resolved spectral analysis which is not possible with the Swift XRT data.

This will constrain the disc emission and Fe line profile in this state, both of which are currently very controversial. LMC X-3 has very low interstellar absorption, so gives the best view of the low temperature/low luminosity disc component in this state. Its moderate flux means it can be observed in standard imaging modes without pileup (further enhancing visibility of the disc as these modes are well calibrated down to 0.4 keV) and making the Fe line profile analysis straightforward. Historically LMC X-3 enters a low/hard state on average once a year. Suzaku will be triggered based on an alert from our Swift monitoring program that the source has entered the low/hard state. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | A | MARI KOLEHMAINEN | EUR | 7 | AO7-TOO | A TOO OF LMC X-3: IS THE DISC TRUNCATED IN THE LOW/HARD STATE OF BLACK HOLE BINARIES? | XIS | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/407086010/ | Quick Look | ||

In order to address this critical issue, we propose a 250 ks Suzaku observation of the NS LMXB, Ser X-1. The broadband capabilities of Suzaku will allow for a robust model of the continuum either side of the Fe K line, while all CCDs will be operated in fast clocking modes to achieve pile-up free spectra.

How is the location of the disk's inner edge related to the presence of a jet? This proposal includes the use of Suzaku, NuSTAR, and radio observations to address these questions.

From the X-ray source catalog with the ASCA Galactic plane survey, we have selected four candidates for such aged magnetars, and propose to observe them for 40 ksec each.

The initial outburst phase is very important for studying the spectral state transition and jet ejections in the accretion physics. However, a detailed study of this phase has not been done much yet due to the insufficient sky coverage and sensitivity of the all-sky monitors. The current MAXI/GSC, Swift/BAT and RXTE/ASM+PCA survey has a very good sensitivity and sky coverage, which can promptly trigger the pointed X-ray observations. Suzaku high-sensitive broadband observations and possible radio coordinated observations will reveals us to establish the unified picture in accretion disks and jets in X-ray binaries, which are independent of the central object. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | A | KAZUTAKA YAMAOKA | JAP | 6 | AO6-TOO | SUZAKU TOO OBSERVATIONS OF THE NEUTRON STAR BINARY AQL X-1 DURING THE INITIAL OUTBURST PHASE | XIS | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/406010010/ | Quick Look | ||

Second, we found a surprising relation between two physical quantities of corona, which roughly shows a continuous change of relation between soft/hard states in contrast with a dramatic change of their spectra.

The apparent sharp transition in coronal properties on the way to helium flash might be caused by disruption of a "fossil" magnetosphere by a newly born solar-like dynamo. A key discriminator is the coronal energy distribution, especially enhanced and sporadic hard emission associated with flaring. The proposed targets are the brightest not previously observed in X-rays at CCD resolution; all three have supporting high resolution UV spectra.

X-rays thus can be a new probe to study the puzzling Martian exosphere that holds key information about how the Martian air has been lost. With XIS, we can detect the emission lines with the highest photon statistics ever. For the first time, we will observe the solar wind near the Mars simultaneously with Mars Express and extract information about the exosphere.

These lines can be used to set tight constrains on the accretion disk geometry and the radius of the neutron star. In two of these systems, the inner radius of the accretion disk as inferred from the line profile appears to be consistent with the radius inferred from the frequency of the kilohertz quasi-periodic oscillations (kHz QPOs). However, contemporaneous measurements in one of these systems appear to contradict this picture. We propose to observe 4U 1820-30 with Suzaku, simultaneously with RXTE.

We expect that the higher the mass, the higher the temperature and luminosity. Existing data appear consistent with this expectation, given the considerable uncertainties usually associated with the white dwarf masses of individual systems. Here we propose Suzaku observations of 5 dwarf novae for which very high or very low white dwarf mass estimates have been published. These targets provide the best opportunity of further establishing the mass-temperature correlation. Moreover, if the mass estimates are reliable, these targets are of interest from evolutionary considerations - how did these systems form with such high/low mass white dwarfs, and what are their ultimate fates? | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | A | KOJI MUKAI | USA | 7 | AO7 | DWARF NOVAE WITH EXTREME WHITE DWARF MASSES | XIS | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/407044010/ | Quick Look | ||

Thus the highly ionized plasma are thought to be generally associated with optically thick accretion disks. Huge outflow by the plasma has been confirmed by some of these objects, and thus such plasma is thought to have an important role on accretion flow. In order to establish generality of the plasma by detecting the absorption lines, and to distinguish whether creation mechanism of the plasma is determined by X-ray luminosity or there is another key parameter, we propose Suzaku observation of luminous persistent black hole binary LMC X-3, with exposure of 60ks. This observation will enable us to find critical parameters which determine the creation of the accretion disk wind. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | C | AYA KUBOTA | JAP | 3 | AO3 | SEARCH FOR IRON K ABSORPTION LINES FROM LMC X-3 | XIS | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/403020010/ | Quick Look | ||

Specifically we intend to utilize Suzaku's sensitivity, low background and the capability of the XIS to resolve the OVIII Ly-alpha line from the OVII triplet. XMM-Newton and Chandra grating spectra provide strong evidence for the presence of accretion induced X-ray emission in CTTS, however, due to low SNR and the presence of absorption an accretion scenario often cannot be probed within reasonable exposure times. With the proposed observations we want to investigate a sample of these CTTS showing additional exceptional properties. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | B | JAN ROBRADE | EUR | 3 | AO3 | ACCRETION RELATED SOFT X-RAY EMISSION IN CLASSICAL T TAURI STARS | XIS | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/403074010/ | Quick Look | ||

We have now seen these lines in 10 neutron star LMXBs that we have examined, allowing measurements of the inner accretion disk radius, and hence an upper limit on the neutron star radius in all these objects. Only with the sensitivity of Suzaku, its high effective area in the Fe K band, and its broad bandpass has it been possible to robustly determine the shape of the lines. With a longer-term aim of completing a census of iron lines in neutron star LMXBs, we request a total of 200 ks to observe 5 neutron star low-mass X-ray binaries to study the relativistic broadening in the Fe Kalpha emission line profiles. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | C | EDWARD CACKETT | USA | 4 | AO4 | AN FE KALPHA EMISSION LINE SURVEY OF NEUTRON STAR LMXBS | HXD | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/404041010/ | Quick Look | ||

However, we observed strong aperiodic variability in a series of pointed observations with the RXTE PCA, to the point of masking this 6.7 day period. Moreover, we have not detected a spin period, even though the accretor is most likely a neutron star. The strong variability is suggestive of accretion from a clumpy wind. We propose a 2-day Suzaku observation of this object (1) to search for unequivocal evidence for a neutron star, such as the spin period and cyclotron features; and (2) to measure the spectral shapes at different flux levels, to investigate the cause of the strong aperiodic variability. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | C | KOJI MUKAI | USA | 5 | AO5 | 4U 1210-64: A HIGHLY VARIABLE X-RAY BINARY | XIS | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/405045010/ | Quick Look | ||

It is one of only two persistently soft state BHC, and has the highest fitted temperature, and highest fitted spin parameter, of any observed BHC. The question arises of whether this high spin is a good estimate of the true spin, or whether this high temperature is evidence of a low level or corona or wind. The multiple Suzaku observations will allow us to track how the disk parameters change, and offer us a 40% chance of observing a state with a large coronal component. The latter might be indicative of launching of a disk wind. | GALACTIC POINT SOURCES | 4 | B | MICHAEL NOWAK | USA | 5 | AO5 | 4U1957+11: THE MOST RAPIDLY SPINNING BLACK HOLE? | XIS | Y | https://data.darts.isas.jaxa.jp/pub/suzaku/ver3.0/405057010/ | Quick Look |
