The first for 30 ksec on January 6, 2008, the second observation is on January 25 for 100 ksec, when the comet is at perihelion, is 0.479 AU from the Earth, 1.03 AU from the Sun, and has a solar latitude of -20.3 degrees, i.e., when it is located in the transition region of the solar wind.

Observed column density shows that this plasma is located in the galactic center region. Assuming the distance of 8 kpc, the size of the plasma is 40 pc x 120 pc. Then, the estimated total energy of the plasma reaches 8e51 ergs. What is the engine creating such a energetic plasma ? Moreover, the ionization temperature of this plasma is larger than the electron temperature (over-ionized plasma). This condition is peculiar in the standard heating mechanism of a plasma. What is the origin of the over-ionized plasma ? Since the previous Suzaku observation covers only a part of the plasma, we propose the observation of the other part for the further investigation.

This indicates that electrons are accelerated up to several tens of MeV and confined in a very large region. We propose simultaneous X-ray, EUV, and radio observations of Jupiter's magnetosphere with Suzaku, EXCEED, and the Tohoku radio telescope. Unprecedented wide band observations covering the inner radiation belt, the Io plasma torus, and Jupiter's aurorae will reveal how electrons are accelerated around Jupiter.

Based on the previous observation, the shell region shows relatively low temperature with low metal abundance while the interior shows high temperature with high metal abundance. The plasma in the interior is the fossil of the progenitor star. Recently, we found a strong Si-K line emission from the southernmost blowout region where the shell is very thin. The complete observation of this region will reveal a pure ejecta of this remnant. We may also be able to reveal a whole picture of an asymmetric ejecta distribution of the Cygnus Loop. We propose 6-pointing observation of the Cygnus Loop's blowout region for 240ks.

Here we request Suzaku observations of the soft X-ray background emission in the vicinity of Mrk 421, to conduct a joint analysis of the emission data with the extensive Chandra absorption data. This analysis will naturally yield an effective length of the absorbing/emitting gas. We have performed pilot studies and obtained a scale length of several kpc for the hot absorbing/emitting gas toward LMC X-3 and Mrk 421.

The distance to the HVCs can be anywhere between 1kpc and 1Mpc. ROSAT detected X-ray nebula at the edge of the Draco HVC 90.5+42.5-130, suggesting that the HVC is encountering the galactic disk and its kinetic energy is transferred into heat of the X-ray nebula. But it is still debatable due to the poor spectral information. With Suzaku, we determine the physical state the nebula, exam whether it is associated with the HVC and investigate the origin.

We propose the mapping observations on whole RCW86 in order to find the structure of the reverse shock by investigating the morphology of the Fe-line emission. At the same time, we can perform the hard X-ray mapping.

Based on the previous observation, the shell region shows relatively low temperature with low metal abundance while the interior shows high temperature with high metal abundance. The plasma in the interior is the fossil of the progenitor star. Recently, we found a region in the central part of the Loop where the shell is very thin. The observation in this region will show the precise mass of the progenitor star. We found most of the shell region showed extremely low abundance. This may suggest that the plasma in the shell region consists of a thin thermal spectrum and a non-thermal spectrum. We may be able to find a region showing non-thermal emission. We propose to observe the Cygnus Loop for 180ks.

Hard X-ray continuum of RCW 86 is accompanied by Fe K line emission at 6.4keV. There is strong possibility that the origin of this line is electrons and protons accelerated in the shell of the SNR. In PV phase, the Southeast region of RCW 86 will be observed, and the density of this region is much larger than that of the Northwest region. Therefore we must compare the fluxes of Fe line and hard continuum of both regions, and discuss the correlation between the flux and the density of emitting region. Such comparative study is very useful for understanding the particle acceleration in the shell-like SNRs.

The location strongly suggests that the object is physically connected to the diffuse TeV gamma-ray emission along the Galactic plane. On the other hand, there is a pulsar near the object, and it may be an off-set pulsar wind nebula. To clarify the origin of the object, we propose to the observation of HESSJ1741.

Characterizing and modeling SWCX emission requires understanding the distribution of neutral material in the magnetosheath and heliosphere, the properties and distribution of the solar wind, and the interaction cross-sections. We propose a multi-year monitoring campaign to measure and characterize the SWCX properties. The results will be used to verify and improve models of SWCX emission, an invaluable tool for the proper analysis and interpretation of data from current and future X-ray missions.

However, the covered area of the GB have been limited. We thus propose a new Key project focusing on the GB region. Objectives are (I) a search for an over-ionized plasma north of the GB as a counterpart of GB south, a relic of past Sgr A* activity, and (II) discovering unexpected features with unprecedented sensitivity of Suzaku for diffuse faint emissions. This Key project, together with the previous Key project on the GC, can complete the data set of the extended GC region as the Suzaku legacy.

The ejecta are seen in optical emission, and enhanced X-ray oxygen line emission is detected but not localized. Puppis A has never been surveyed with an adequate combination of bandpass and spectral resolution, and Suzaku offers a unique capability for providing such observations. The line emission will also provide diagnostics of plasma conditions throughout the remnant through their intensity ratios in addition to conventional broadband spectral fits. We propose five fields to cover the eastern portion of the remnant where the oxygen ejecta are expected to be present.

The combination of absorption and emission measurements provides a powerful tool in this regard. Instead of average emission and absorption measures used in previous studies, one immediate step forward would be to use emission measures close to absorption sightlines. With proposed observations we will determine emission measures close to five sightlines in which we have the most accurate absorption measurements with Chandra. This will break the degeneracy between density and path-length and robustly measure the extent and mass of the warm-hot halo, placing strongest constraints yet on the fraction of missing baryons in the warm-hot plasma.

Especially TeV pulsar wind nebulae are supposed to have a largely extended X-ray emission. Since the X-ray emission is much larger than the size considering the typical electron lifetime, high energy electrons strangely seem to be transferred too fast or without cooling. To study the electron diffusion of young pulsar wind nebula, we propose observations of HESS J1356-645, which is off the Galactic plane and is free from the Galactic ridge X-ray emission.

As gamma rays are produced by interactions of relativistic particles, observing VHE emission reveals the acceleration sites of particles. Although it had been thought that such acceleration occur in the shock of SNR, it became clear that several VHE sources are pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe). This indicates that PWNe are also the acceleration sites of particles. HESS J1809-193 is a diffuse and a pulsar wind nebula candidate source, but details of the VHE emission mechanisms have been unclear yet. With the high sensitivity of XIS, we investigate spatial distribution of the spectrum around HESS J1809-193 and reveal its nature and the VHE emission mechanism.

The LHB temperature is ~10^6 K, and in equilibrium we would expect no O VIII emission. However, the LHB is almost certainly not in equilibrium, and it is quite possible that significant O^{+7} is still recombining (and emitting O VIII) following its creation in the most recent local supernova 2-4 Myr ago. We propose to measure these lines from the LHB using the nearby molecular cloud MBM12 as a curtain to shadow more distant emission. Even if O VIII is not detected, the O VII measurement will be the first unambiguous measurement of a line from the LHB.

These structures are candidate of X-ray reflection nebula and supernova remnant, respectively. Both targets imply the past activities in the Galactic center region: AGN, star burst, or something else. To verify these origin, we propose extensional observation around the Sgr B region. We also investigate metal abundances in the Galactic center by using line intensity ratio at the SNR.

Ginga and ASCA observations reveal a hard emission component, interpreted as arising from shock-accelerated electrons, making this the oldest SNR in which shock acceleration has been found. Recent reanalysis of the ASCA data leaves ambiguity about the existence of this component. The importance of understanding the evolution of shock acceleration in SNRs makes vital confirming the existence of the hard component and localizing it. We propose 50 ks XIS observations of 3 locations to localize the hard component. Given its angular size, lack of small high contrast features, 0.4 keV thermal component with strong lines, and hard component, G156.2+5.7 is an ideal Suzaku target.

It is likely that this object belongs to the class of offset pulsar wind nebula (PWN), accelerating electrons and positrons up to ~100 TeV. So far no sensitive X-ray observations of this region have taken place. The synchrotron spectrum of the nebula is predicted to peak in the energy range of the Suzaku HXD. The unprecedented high energy sensitivity of this instrument is required to study the highest energy particles accelerated in this object. Spectral measurements by Suzaku would confirm the inverse-Compton origin of the VHE gamma-rays and place tight constraints on the maximum energy of accelerated electrons.

However, all those samples are young SNRs (ages about 300-2000 yr). G156.2+5.7 is an old SNR (age about 10^4 year), but emits hard X-rays in addition to usual thin thermal emission (about 0.5 keV temperature). We propose a Suzaku observation on a center region of this SNR, where diffuse hard X-rays were detected with ASCA and XMM. Our primary objective is to determine whether or not the hard tail is synchrotron X-rays, and study cosmic-ray acceleration in this old SNR.

This source may accelerate protons of 100TeV or more. This TeV source is extended, hence likely a supernova remnant (SNR). There are two scenarios on the nature of this source: one is a young SNR in which the proton acceleration is so efficient, and the other is an old SNR with radiative shock. We have already observed this source by Suzaku AO-1, and found a faint, diffuse, nonthermal X-ray emission. However, the current data prevents us from concluding which scenario is favorable since entire region is not yet covered by X-ray observation.

An extended (~2') hard x-ray emission, presumably of non-thermal origin, was detected with Chandra from a position ~6' toward north east of its center. However, the Chandra ACIS spectrum does not allow us to determine with confidence whether it is a non-thermal emission or a high temperature thermal source. Utilizing the high sensitivity of the XIS, we try to distinguish between these two cases. If confirmed, the result may provide valuable information on particle acceleration in non-relativistic shocks, with potential relations the galactic-ridge x-ray emission. We perform a single pointing observation placing the center of the diffuse emission onto XIS nominal position.

The first study conducted in a region close to the OB association brought a detailed surface brightness distribution and the highest S/N ratio spectrum of the diffuse emission. In this proposed study, we move our eyes to the west to observe another bright emission outside of the previously studied regions. DSS and ROSAT all-sky survey images suggest that this is a shocked region, in which OB stellar winds impinge upon ISM. We aim to obtain the surface brightness map of this region and measure the plasma temperature difference in and out of the possible shocked region.

Very little is known about G332.5-5.6, so our observations will provide information on the remnant shock speed, age, and evolutionary state; on the possible presence of nonthermal emission, either due to a pulsar in the center or to shock-accelerated electrons in the limbs; and on abundances, which might identify ejecta emission and allow the classification of the supernova.

Aim of the observation is to determine power-law contribution in the hard-tail spectrum above 10 keV with HXD-PIN. If we also find the Fe-Kb and Ni-K emission lines with XIS which have not observed in any previous missions, temperature and nt parameter of a NEI model will be fixed. The determination will help to distinguish the power-law component from the thermal one. We also memtioned that the amount of Fe and Ni will be a good estimator to determine the type of Kepler's SNR.

The ROSAT 3/4 keV band all sky map does not show significant dip in intensity at galactic plane, where the CXB component is totally absorbed by galactic absorption. Thus unknown emission must be compensating the CXB component in this energy band. Our AO-2 observation of a general direction of the anticenter direction gives a clear clue to understand the origin of the mysterious emission. We propose to make additional observation in order to confirm the emission component detected in the AO-2 observation generally exist in the galactic plane.

As for the GCDX, we have already found many facts to support that, neither 6.7 keV nor 6.4 keV is attributable to a single origin like integrated point sources. In this project, we will extend the same study to the GRDX, and solve the origin of the GRDX and reveal possible relation to the GCDX.

This source is one of the most interesting source in the HESS catalog since it is the first and the only TeV gamma-ray emitter that shows energy dependent morphology. However, all the gamma-ray emitting region is not covered by X-ray observatories. We propose Suzaku observations of HESS J1825-137 region, which has not been covered by other X-ray satellites. By comparing the spectral and morphological properties of X-ray emission with those of TeV gamma-rays, we can probe the morophology and strength of the magnetic fiels, which should reveal the physical processes of acceleration, diffusion, and radiation of relativistic electrons.

Based on the previous observation, the shell region shows relatively low temperature with low metal abundance while the interior shows high temperature with high metal abundance. The plasma in the interior is the fossil of the progenitor star. Recently, we found a region in the central part of the Loop where the shell is very thin. The observation in this region will show the precise mass of the progenitor star. We found most of the shell region showed extremely low abundance. This may suggest that the plasma in the shell region consists of a thin thermal spectrum and a non-thermal spectrum. We may be able to find a region showing non-thermal emission.

As gamma rays are produced by interactions of relativistic particles, observing VHE emission reveals the acceleration sites of particles. Although it had been thought that such acceleration occur in the shock of SNR, it became clear that several VHE sources are pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe). This indicates that PWNe are also the acceleration sites of particles. HESS J1809-193 is a diffuse and a pulsar wind nebula candidate source, but details of the VHE emission mechanisms have been unclear yet. With the high sensitivity of XIS, we investigate spatial distribution of the spectrum around HESS J1809-193 and reveal its nature and the VHE emission mechanism.

Recent observations suggest that such long structures may be associated with many other pulsars. Being the longest extended structures observed around Galactic compact objects. The physical processes responsible for the formation of such tails are not well understood, and the existing numerical models may only be valid at small distances from the pulsar. To determine the major factors governing the post-shock wind, we propose to observe the tail of PSR B1929+10, measure its full extent, map the surface brightness distribution, and perform spatially resolved spectroscopy.

One source is near the colliding wind binary RCW 49, which has been suggested as the accelerator, and would therefore represent a new source class if there is no other plausible accelerator in the neighborhood. The other is a very bright source first detected by MILAGRO in the Galactic plane, which has been shown to be a large, extended source by HESS. While there is in each case a proposed X-ray counterpart, only a part of each nebula has been imaged in hard X-rays, and so it is unknown if there are other, more plausible counterparts.

However, the environments of such SNRs, temperature, density, and so on, are still unknown due to the lack of thermal X-ray emission in their spectra. HESS J1731-347 is one of only 3 TeV SNRs which have a radio shell and possible thermal X-rays. With good statistics and low background observation of Suzaku XIS, we will detect thermal X-rays from the shell of HESS J1731-347 for the first time.

As the chance coincidence is very unlikely, there should be a connection between the two. Furthermore, previous short Chandra observations of this field have revealed a large-scale asymmetric PWN extending toward the center of the TeV source. Thus, this is an excellent case for testing whether the unidentified TeV sources near young pulsars are, in fact, relic PWNe crushed by the asymmetric SNR reverse shock. We will probe the nature of the X-ray emission by measuring the surface brightness and spatially-resolved spectra across the large extent of the TeV source. Suzaku XIS is ideally suited for this purpose because of its low background.

Based on our recent observations with the Suzaku XIS, we found an indication of correlation between the X-ray hard-tail emission and radio emission. In addition, we confirmed the existence of metal-rich ejecta in the central portion, but found no evidence of ejecta in the rim regions. To investigate the correlation between the X-ray hard-tail emission and the radio emission, and the distributions of the X-ray emitting ejecta in this SNR, we propose to extend our observations with the Suzaku XIS.

The available X-ray data provides rather poor constraints on the physical properties of the remnant. We propose to perform a deep Suzaku observation to obtain good spectral data. Joint spectral analyses of Suzaku and radio data will enable us to accurately and precisely measure the synchrotron spectral index and cutoff frequency, the electron temperature, the emission measure, and, perhaps, the relative elemental abundances. As a result, it will be possible to compute accurate and precise values for the spectral index and maximum energy of the nonthermal electrons, the strength of the magnetic field, and the ambient density, age, and shock velocity.

In the analogy of the past discovery of Non-Equilibrium Ionization (NEI) in the SNR plasmas, the discovery of the RRC will provide new insight on the explosion mechanisms and evolution of SNRs. Since the SNR-RRC is diffuse X-ray structure, systematic study of RRC can be a legacy of Suzaku as well as the key science for the Astro-H project. The next process to develop the newly born RRC science is to search for what underlying physics does determine the presence or absence of the RRC structure.

Past X-ray flares of Sgr A* likely produced the FeI 6.4 keV emission in the MCs (XRN: X-ray Reflection Nebulae). In Sgr C, the XRN have been solely found in one of the velocity zones. We hence propose to find new XRN in the other velocity zone, which is possibly located at the different distance from the known XRN. With the Suzaku observation, we will determine the 3-dimensional positions of the XRN. Since the presence (or absence) of the XRN largely depends on the epoch of the Sgr A* flares and the 3-dimensional positions of the MCs, Sgr C is a "Rosetta Stone" of the origin and production of the XRN.

Many previous studies show the abundance of the Cygnus Loop's shell is wholly low (0.2 solar) while that of the ambient medium is typically 0.5 solar. Based on our previous observations, we found some shell regions show 0.5 solar abundances which are consistent with that of the ISM. To explain this result, we formed a hypothesis that the cavity wall density is low in such region and that the forward shock is now propagating outside the cavity, interacting with the ambient medium.

Some of these progenitors are expected to significantly modify ambient medium around them prior to SN explosions. A standard Type Ia SNR model, a white dwarf explosion in a uniform ambient medium, fails to account for bright Fe-rich ejecta and faint blast waves seen in majority of Type Ia SNRs in the Magellanic Clouds. A promising explanation involves presence of dense circumstellar medium (CSM) around their progenitors. We propose a Suzaku study of 4 mature Type Ia SNRs in the LMC, with the goal of determining chemical abundances, temperatures and ionization ages within their ejecta. This will allow us to construct dynamical SNR models, and learn about their CSM and progenitors.

In addition to these bullets, signatures of ejecta inside the main shell have been uncovered in recent X-ray studies. Mostly, these are rich in light metals such as O, Ne, or Mg, whereas no Fe-rich ejecta had yet been detected. Based on archival XMM-Newton data, we found a possible Fe-rich ejecta bullet headed roughly in the opposite direction of Vela pulsar's motion. This would provide us with a window into the core-collapse SN explosion of the Vela SNR. Since its electron temperature is very low (~0.1 keV), the good Suzaku XIS response below 0.5 keV is suitable to study this object. We propose to observe it in four pointings.

We propose to observe the non-thermal X-ray source AX J1714.1-3912 to investigate its relationship with the SNR RX J1713.7-3946. ASCA observations have shown that the hard spectrum of the source may be associated with bremsstrahlung emission from particles accelerated in the SNR and diffusing in a nearby molecular cloud. This emission has never been observed in other SNRs. However, the association of the source with the remnant is still controversial and the ASCA data do not allow us to constrain the spectral properties. We aim at verifying the association with the remnant and at investigating the physical origin of the emission.

Very recently, synchrotron emission has been discovered with the VLA radio observation from a bow shock region of a runaway star, BD+43 3654, having a very fast stellar wind whose velocity reaches up to 2300 km/s. The maximum energy is estimated to be about 10 TeV, and thus the emission should come to the X-ray band. Here, we propose to perform the 100 ksec observation of BD+43 3654 with Suzaku, in order to determine the strength of the shock from the temperature of the post-shock plasma and to determine the maximum energy of the accelerated electrons.

This indicates that electrons are accelerated up to several tens of MeV and confined in a very large region. We propose to observe Jupiter again in a different epoch.

Based on our previous observations, the shell region shows relatively low temperature with low metal abundance. The interior shows high temperature with high metal abundance. The plasma in the interior is the fossil of the progenitor star. Its abundance non-uniformity indicates the asymmetric explosion. There are two blow-out features: a south-break with one degree diameter and a west-break with half degree diameter. The west-break shows a half-moon shape indicating a rapid expansion in a tenuous plasma. We propose to observe the west-break with SUZAKU for 100 ksec. The plasma in the west-break must be a pure fossil plasma of the SN. We want to study the plasma structure that is almost free from obscuration by the ISM.

The pair is in the primary stage of merging, then we need to obtain the information of the gas outside region to clarify the process of the merging.

Its radio and gamma-ray surface brightness peaks to the south of the pulsar, suggesting that the nebula was crushed by the reverse shock which propagated more rapidly from the north than the south through an inhomogeneous ambient medium. The X-ray morphology is not yet known. Recently, we found that the X-ray extent is larger than the radio extent in the northeastern and eastern directions. We here propose ten Suzaku XIS observations in these two directions to study the history of the Vela PWN; for instance, to investigate whether the radio-emitting PWN is the relic of PWN-reverse shock interactions, whereas the X-ray-emitting PWN is more recently formed by freshly injected particles.

Its radio and gamma-ray surface brightness peaks to the south of the pulsar, suggesting that the nebula was crushed by the reverse shock which propagated more rapidly from the north than the south through an inhomogeneous ambient medium. The X-ray morphology is not yet known. Recently, we found that the X-ray extent is larger than the radio extent in the northeastern and eastern directions. We here propose ten Suzaku XIS observations in these two directions to study the history of the Vela PWN; for instance, to investigate whether the radio-emitting PWN is the relic of PWN-reverse shock interactions, whereas the X-ray-emitting PWN is more recently formed by freshly injected particles.

Observations of these shadows enable us to disentangle the various components of the SXRB. Unfortunately, to date, shadowing observations with XMM or Suzaku have only been published for three directions, all in the southern Galactic hemisphere. We propose two new pairs of on- and off-cloud shadowing observations, in order to sample the northern Galactic hemisphere. Our particular goal is to obtain accurate X-ray spectra of the Galactic halo, which we will compare with the predictions of models of galactic fountains and infalling extragalactic material.

Observed column density shows that this plasma is located in the galactic center region. Assuming the distance of 8 kpc, the size of the plasma is 40 pc x 120 pc. Then, the estimated total energy of the plasma reaches 8e51 ergs. What is the engine creating such a energetic plasma ? Moreover, the ionization temperature of this plasma is larger than the electron temperature (over-ionized plasma). This condition is peculiar in the standard heating mechanism of a plasma. What is the origin of the over-ionized plasma ? Since the previous Suzaku observation covers only a part of the plasma, we propose the observation of the other part for the further investigation.

Recent Fermi surveys revealed that particles are more efficiently escaping from the acceleration system when the SNRs get older. However what is still unknown is the plasma condition environment that makes the mechanism more efficient. X-ray observations are an excellent tool to understand the plasma condition but there has not been a systematic X-ray follow-up observations of these Fermi SNRs. The Suzaku Observatory is ideal for such X-ray systematic study because of his low background. We propose here X-ray observations of 4 SNRs detected by Fermi to solve cosmic-ray escape problem.

Our immediate objective is to investigate how much extended the Vela PWN is in the north where the thermal pressure is significantly higher than that in the east we observed so far.

We analyzed Suzaku AO5 data, it resulted in finding of Fe Lya Line. This is a symptomatic of over-ionized (recombining) plasma. On the other hand, the Fe K line center indicates under-ionized (ionizing) plasma. This means that 3C 397 may consisting of two opposite type of plasma: ionizing and recombining. Such a strange state of plasma is not discovered in any SNR.This discovery will be a key to uncovering a mystery of the origin of recombining plasma. However, we still not detect Fe Radiative recombination continuum (RRC),which is a evidence of recombining plasma. To detect the Fe RRC, we propose 150 ks additional observation of 3C 397.

We have observed the center region of W44 with Suzaku in the AO5 phase. The spectra are well reproduced by a thermal plasma in a recombining phase. While such plasmas have been found from several SNRs, the origin is still unclear. We also discover hard X-ray emission which shows an arc-like structure spatially-correlated with a radio continuum filament. No conventional model for particle acceleration could explain the mechanism of the hard X-ray emission. The entire plasma distribution of W44 will provide a clue to resolve the origins of the reombining plasma and the hard X-ray emission.

Very recently, MAXI has detected an isolated X-ray gisland h at the outermost part of NW edges of the bubble only seen at above 2keV, not associated with any structures or sources. Moreover, MAXI confirmed the presence of a thermal projection at the base of the Southern bubble embedded in the Galactic diffuse emission. Together with our knowledge obtained from AO7 observations across the North/South bubble edges, we propose to observe these two regions as a collaborative work with the MAXI-SSC team. We try to derive physical parameters of these giant X-ray structures and its possible association, interaction with the Fermi Bubble.

However, the environments of such SNRs, temperature, density, and so on, are still unknown due to the lack of thermal X-ray emission in their spectra. HESS J1534-571 is a candidate of only several TeV SNRs which is located off Galactic plane. With good statistics and low background observation of Suzaku XIS, we will detect X-rays from this object for the first time, and identifying as a TeV SNR and if possible, detecting thermal X-rays from the target for the first time. Determining the thermal parameters will reveal us what kind of environment makes ordinal SNRs to TeV SNRs and how TeV SNRs accelerate cosmic rays in such condition.

Recently a supernova remnant G35.6-0.4 and molecular clouds were discovered in the vicinity of HESSJ1858+020. The TeV emission may be generated through the interaction between protons accelerated in the SNR and the molecular clouds. However, a star forming region in the cloud was also discovered by an infrared observation, and the region may be responsible for the acceleration of protons.

We aim to detect flux increase and spectral hardening of synchrotron X-rays since 2011 when the previous Suzaku observation was performed. The measurement should provide us with important information about the maximum acceleration energy attainable by diffusive shock acceleration in SNRs. Suzaku XIS is the most suitable detector since it has the large effective area even in the hard band up to 10 keV. If X-ray flux increase is significantly larger than that measured in the radio band, we can conclude that maximum acceleration energy is becoming higher at present.

On the other hand, Fermi-LAT shows that GeV PWN has a totally different spatial distribution from either X-ray or radio PWN.

G166.0+4.3 (G166 hereafter) is a unique SNR with which we can examine it. The morphology suggests that the shell of G166 follows the normal evolutional scenario of SNR and the wing is formed by blow-out into cavity on the way of the evolution. Observing G166 with Suzaku as a laboratory of recombining plasma, 1) we examine if a recombining plasma in a SNR is created through rarefaction by blow-out. 2) We construct a model of creation of a recombining plasma in a SNR. Using the parameters of G166 such as age and SN energy obtained from the shell, we reconstruct the recombining plasma created by the blow-out in the wing and compare it with the observation.

This cluster is an archetypal case showing clear and unique symptoms of shock heating and particle acceleration in a probably early stage of major merger.

We propose deep observations of nearby star-forming region Cygnus X, aiming at elongated TeV gamma-ray emission found by Milagro and recently resolved by VERITAS. Although an energetic pulsar PSR J2021+3651 coincides with one of TeV peaks, most of gamma-ray emission still remains unexplained. By utilizing high sensitivity of the Suzaku XIS, particularly for diffuse X-rays, we aim to detect X-ray counterparts, presumably unknown pulsar wind nebulae.

HB9 is a member of the class of Galactic SNRs which are distinguished by their contrasting radio and X-ray morphologies. Prior X-ray observations of HB9 have suggested that the SNR may have a hard component to its X-ray emission, but the true nature of this emission and its origin (a background AGN, intercluster gas associated with the cluster that harbors the AGN or the SNR itself) remains elusive. Our proposed observations will help identify the true nature of the hard emission as well as search for spectral variations (and possible overionization) in the properties of the X-ray emitting plasma associated with the SNR.

This remnant is of particular interest because it is expanding in a low-density medium, appears sub-energetic, and has mixed-morphology, with central thermal X-ray emission surrounded by a radio synchrotron shell. Fits to the spectrum suggest a Type Ia SNR, but the possible presence of a pulsar wind nebula challenges that interpretation. The new pointings will significantly improve the statistics for key regions (rims and background), allowing us to type the remnant, determine its age, study its energetics, place limits on nonthermal X-ray emission, and better characterize the PWN.

The combination of absorption and emission measurements provides a powerful tool in this regard. Instead of average emission and absorption measures used in previous studies, one immediate step forward would be to use emission measures close to absorption sightlines. With proposed observations we will determine emission measures close to five sightlines in which we have the most accurate absorption measurements with Chandra. This will break the degeneracy between density and path-length and robustly measure the extent and mass of the warm-hot halo, placing strongest constraints yet on the fraction of missing baryons in the warm-hot plasma.

Additional data from Fermi reinforce this hypothesis due to the detection of jet and cocoon structures in the southern bubble. There are signatures of the bubbles at X-ray energies, implying they contain relatively cool gas (10^6 K) and/or are influencing the Milky Way's hot gas halo. We propose Suzaku XIS observations to analyze the soft X-ray emission from these regions, which will allow us to constrain the density, temperature, and expansion velocity of these features. These observations will be crucial in understanding the evolution of the Fermi bubbles and their role in the evolution of the Milky Way.

These are rare emission regions, occurring in fewer than 1% of the fields and they are not due to known extended emission regions (SNR, galaxy clusters, etc.). These emission anomalies probably signify locations of unusual physics, such as shocks, conductive heating, or local heat injection. We propose observations to determine the angular extent of these unusual regions and to better define the intensities of the O VII and O VIII lines. These observations will help identify the relevant physical process and the nature of the phenomenon causing them.

They have a shell-type morphology in the radio, but the X-ray emission is centrally dominated. X-ray spectroscopy of several of these supernova remnants, indicate that their central plasma is often over-ionised and have enhanced abundances. Here we propose to study a typical member of this class, which has so far not received much attention, despite being bright and only mildly absorbed: 3C400.2. The remnant can be covered with four pointings, and is bright enough for imaging spectroscopy on the scale of the Suzaku PSF. This will enable us to study spectroscopic variation, confirm the preliminary detection of an RRC and map its distribution, and study the abundances.

We propose a multi-year monitoring campaign to measure and characterize the SWCX properties.

Its radio and gamma-ray surface brightness peaks to the south of the pulsar, suggesting that the nebula was crushed by the reverse shock which propagated more rapidly from the north than the south through an inhomogeneous ambient medium. The X-ray morphology is not yet known. Recently, we found that the X-ray extent is larger than the radio extent in the northeastern and eastern directions. We here propose ten Suzaku XIS observations in these two directions to study the history of the Vela PWN; for instance, to investigate whether the radio-emitting PWN is the relic of PWN-reverse shock interactions, whereas the X-ray-emitting PWN is more recently formed by freshly injected particles.

The cloud emits strong 6.4-keV line, and is a candidate of X-ray reflection nebula; the molecular cloud which emits fluorescence and scattered X-rays irradiated by an external X-ray source. The past activity of Sgr~A$^*$, the Galactic nucleus, may be the origin of 6.4-keV line. We will study 6.4-keV line and verify the X-ray reflection scenario. The second objective is to study the distribution of high ionized and neutral iron lines in the GC region. Chandra observation indicates that H-like iron line is very strong in this region. With the higher energy resolution of XIS, we can confirm the Chandra results. High energy diffuse emission above 10 keV is also a important target by HXD.

Especially TeV pulsar wind nebulae are supposed to have a largely extended X-ray emission. Since the X-ray emission is much larger than the size considering the typical electron lifetime, high energy electrons strangely seem to be transferred too fast or without cooling. To study the electron diffusion of young pulsar wind nebula, we propose observations of HESS J1356-645, which is off the Galactic plane and is free from the Galactic ridge X-ray emission.

The Local Bubble's spectrum will be garnered from an observation of a nearby opaque cloud. The halo's spectrum will be found by subtracting the Local Bubble spectrum from that of an adjacent off-cloud observation. In order to better constrain the models, we will also draw upon existing FUSE O VI emission data for these directions.

Moreover, Suzaku PV observation indicates that the diffuse X-rays can well be explained by a thermal emission from hot(8 keV) plasma. The most plausible energy injection sources are the multiple SNe. The huge thermal energy (10^47 J) and short timescale (10^5 yr) of the hot plasma suggest that the GC region harbors at least 10 young SNRs. To confirm the scenario, we propose to observe two SNR candidates at the south of the GC with a single pointing. One exhibits a non-thermal shell-like X-ray SNR feature, and the other shows a thin-thermal SNR feature. We also propose to observe the symmetric position with respect to the Galactic plane for the background estimation.

Recent galactic plane survey in the TeV gamma-ray band reveals several new unidentified sources like HESS J1745-303. It is extended, hence likely a supernova remnant. Also it coincides with an EGRET unidentified source (3EG J1744-3011), which may suggest that it is a source of accelerated protons. However, HESS J1745-303 shows rather hard spectrum that cannot be explained by the simplest version of the diffusive shock acceleration model. X-ray study on HESS J1745-303 is necessary for further discussions. We might find that observed data requires modification of the common picture that young supernova remnants are the dominant source of high-energy protons.

HESS surveyed the Galactic Plane and found new TeV gamma-ray sources. TeV gamma-ray emissions are direct evidence for the presence of high energy particles above TeV, but, nonetheless, many of the new extended sources are very faint in any other wavelength. In fact, we observed HESS J1616-518 in Suzaku PV phase already and found its X-ray flux is quite low compared to its TeV gamma-ray flux. It is appropriate to be called ''Dark Accelerator'' and such objects might mainly contribute to the Galactic Cosmic rays.

The ejecta are seen in optical emission, and enhanced X-ray oxygen line emission is detected but not localized. Puppis A has never been surveyed with an adequate combination of bandpass and spectral resolution, and Suzaku offers a unique capability for providing such observations. The line emission will also provide diagnostics of plasma conditions throughout the remnant through their intensity ratios in addition to conventional broadband spectral fits. We propose five fields to cover the eastern portion of the remnant where the oxygen ejecta are expected to be present.

The goal of that observation is to measure the O VII and O VIII emission from the Local Hot Bubble, taking advantage of Suzaku's low energy sensitivity and low background. In light of this, we propose to observe the diffuse background near the MBM 12 position. This will: (1) Measure the O VII and O VIII emission from the Galactic disk and halo, after subtracting the local emission, and (2) confirm that this background emission does not contaminate the initial observation. The absolute measure of the strength of the O VII line, as well as the O VIII/O VII ratio, is essential to understanding the origin of the Galactic component to the 3/4 keV diffuse emission.

Characterizing and modeling SWCX emission requires understanding the distribution of neutral material in the magnetosheath and heliosphere, the properties and distribution of the solar wind, and the interaction cross-sections. We propose a multi-year monitoring campaign to measure and characterize the SWCX properties. The results will be used to verify and improve models of SWCX emission, an invaluable tool for the proper analysis and interpretation of data from current and future X-ray missions.

The most plausible energy injection source is multiple SNe. The huge thermal energy (10^54 ergs) and short timescale (10^5 yr) of the hot plasma suggest that the GC region harbors at least 10 young SNRs. To confirm this scenario, we propose to observe the shell of G0.9+0.1 and the connecting region of Sgr B and D.

Very little is known about G332.5-5.6, so our observations will provide information on the remnant shock speed, age, and evolutionary state; on the possible presence of nonthermal emission, either due to a pulsar in the center or to shock-accelerated electrons in the limbs; and on abundances, which might identify ejecta emission and allow the classification of the supernova.

As for the GCDX, we have already found many facts to support that, neither 6.7 keV nor 6.4 keV is attributable to a single origin like integrated point sources. In this project, we will extend the same study to the GRDX, and solve the origin of the GRDX and reveal possible relation to the GCDX. In addition, the GC region is a treasure house of high energy astrophysics, hence will certainly produce many scientific results (many refereed papers), as we have already demonstrated in the PV and AO1 phase observations: 12 accepted refereed papers with 1.2 M-sec observations.

This source is one of the most interesting source in the HESS catalog since it is the first and the only TeV gamma-ray emitter that shows energy dependent morphology. However, all the gamma-ray emitting region is not covered by X-ray observatories. We propose Suzaku observations of HESS J1825-137 region, which has not been covered by other X-ray satellites. By comparing the spectral and morphological properties of X-ray emission with those of TeV gamma-rays, we can probe the morophology and strength of the magnetic fiels, which should reveal the physical processes of acceleration, diffusion, and radiation of relativistic electrons.

The 1-10 keV spectrum of this remnant is essentially a featureless continuum attributed to synchrotron emission from accelerated electrons, with the X-ray and gamma-ray morphologies being very well matched. Observations at energies above 10 keV with HXD will probe the cut-off energy of the synchrotron spectrum, shedding light on the electron acceleration efficiency.

Recent measurements using Chandra coupled with precise laboratory measurements at EBIT lend support for this hypothesis. In fact we have successfully deconvolved the Chandra/ACIS observation of comet C/Linear using direct observations of charge exchanging plasmas at EBIT using a flight spare XRS detector system. Here, we propose to observe a magnitude 1 comet, 73P/SW 3, the brightest comet of the decade during May 2006 within only 0.08 AU of the earth using the XIS1 (BI) instrument on Suzaku. The exceptional low energy response of the XIS will allow us to unambiguously identify the x-ray emission mechanism in comets.

We can verify the thermal nature of these sources, and look for CNO abyndance ratio differences between local disk and halo gas. It is critical to make these abundance determinations before the low energy response deteriorates any further.

The Local Bubble's spectrum will be garnered from an observation of a nearby opaque cloud. The halo's spectrum will be found by subtracting the Local Bubble spectrum from that of an adjacent off-cloud observation. In order to better constrain the models, we will also draw upon existing FUSE O VI emission data for these directions.

Based on the previous observation, the shell region shows relatively low temperature with low metal abundance while the interior shows high temperature with high metal abundance. The plasma in the interior is the fossil of the progenitor star. Recently, we found a region in the central part of the Loop where the shell is very thin. The observation in this region will show the precise mass of the progenitor star. We found most of the shell region showed extremely low abundance. This may suggest that the plasma in the shell region consists of a thin thermal spectrum and a non-thermal spectrum. We may be able to find a region showing non-thermal emission.

Moreover, Suzaku PV observation indicates that the diffuse X-rays can well be explained by a thermal emission from hot(8 keV) plasma. The most plausible energy injection sources are the multiple SNe. The huge thermal energy (10^47 J) and short timescale (10^5 yr) of the hot plasma suggest that the GC region harbors at least 10 young SNRs. To confirm the scenario, we propose to observe two SNR candidates at the south of the GC with a single pointing. One exhibits a non-thermal shell-like X-ray SNR feature, and the other shows a thin-thermal SNR feature. We also propose to observe the symmetric position with respect to the Galactic plane for the background estimation.

Recently, the Spitzer Space Telescope discovered moving structures nearly at the speed of light outside the shell of the SNR. These structures are likely infrared echoes, where interstellar dust is heated by the outward moving photon shell of a bright flash. The bright flash is probably due to a giant flare from the central point source of Cas A, and if so, it requires that the central point source is a magnetar. Magnetars are known to emit luminous flares in the X-ray band, so it is expected that we can detect Fe-K fluorescence emission accompanied by IR echo.

Ginga and ASCA observations reveal a hard emission component, interpreted as arising from shock-accelerated electrons, making this the oldest SNR in which shock acceleration has been found. Recent reanalysis of the ASCA data leaves ambiguity about the existence of this component. The importance of understanding the evolution of shock acceleration in SNRs makes vital confirming the existence of the hard component and localizing it. We propose 50 ks XIS observations of 3 locations to localize the hard component. Given its angular size, lack of small high contrast features, 0.4 keV thermal component with strong lines, and hard component, G156.2+5.7 is an ideal Suzaku target.

Puppis A has never been surveyed with an adequate combination of bandpass and spectral resolution, and Suzaku offers a unique capability for providing such observations.

Most SB models indicate that these objects should be dominated by thermal plasma processes. However, observations of 2 SBs have detected significant nonthermal contributions to their X-ray emission, which raises many questions. Is it generated by synchrotron, inverse-Compton, or nonthermal Bremsstrahlung processes? Are colliding stellar winds or internal supernova remnants responsible? We therefore propose to examine the X-ray emission from 4 X-ray bright SBs, to search for nonthermal X-ray emission, and if possible place strong constraints on the source of this emission.

Particulary puzzling is the brightest filament of Vela X. It has an apparent X-ray counterpart which was thought to be the jet of the Vela pulsar energizing the Vela X complex. This seemingly straightforward interpretation has been ruled out by the Chandra discovery of the true pulsar jets. To elucidate the nature of the filament and the Vela X complex and their connection to the Vela pulsar, we propose spatially-resolved spectroscopy of the radio/X-ray filament with XIS. Simultaneously, we will measure the spectra of the Vela pulsar and PWN between 10 and 600 keV and perform phase-resolved spectroscopy of the pulsar in the 20-50 keV band.

Recent observations suggest that such long structures may be associated with many other pulsars. Being the longest extended structures observed around Galactic compact objects. The physical processes responsible for the formation of such tails are not well understood, and the existing numerical models may only be valid at small distances from the pulsar. To determine the major factors governing the post-shock wind, we propose to observe the tail of PSR B1929+10, measure its full extent, map the surface brightness distribution, and perform spatially resolved spectroscopy.

The proposed X-ray observations of diffuse soft and hard X-ray emission from the GCL, away from the plane is critical in order to examine the starburst model.

This source may accelerate protons of 100TeV or more. This TeV source is extended, hence likely a supernova remnant (SNR). There are two scenarios on the nature of this source: one is a young SNR in which the proton acceleration is so efficient, and the other is an old SNR with radiative shock. We have already observed this source by Suzaku AO-1, and found a faint, diffuse, nonthermal X-ray emission. However, the current data prevents us from concluding which scenario is favorable since entire region is not yet covered by X-ray observation.

Recent HESS data have revealed a shell-like morphology in TeV gamma-rays, which motivates us to map the remnant's shell with Suzaku XIS and HXD. The sensitivity of Suzaku HXD PIN detector in the 10-50 keV range is high enough to detect the hard X-ray synchrotron emission from the northwest and north rims. With Suzaku XIS, we will measure keV-to-TeV flux ratios in a wide area of the remnant.

Suzaku PV spectrum revealed ionization parameter of the plasma is significantly low. We investigated the spatial variation of the ionization parameter, and found the outer region of SN1006 has lower ionization parameter than the inner region. However, since the center region of SN1006 is placed on the edge of FOV in the PV observation, the spectra have poor statistics, and the ionization state and the metal abundance cannot be decided with good precision. We propose to observe the center region of SN1006 deeply to decide the physical condition of the plasma of young SNR. Necessary exposure time is 150ksec.

They must be powerful cosmic-ray accelerators, although their origin is still unknown due to the lack of information in other wavelengths. We investigate one of the most mysterious sample, HESS J1702-420, which has the brightest HESS compact source without clear counterparts. ASCA Galactic plane survey shows no evidence of X-ray emission although the exposure was too short. With the large effective area and the low background of XISs, we will be able to detect quite dim counterpart or make strong upper-limit in the hard X-ray band. This result will lead us to distinguish that HESS J1702-420 is the true "dark" protonic accelerator, or a hypothetical PWN powered by PSR J1702-4128.

This SNR has a centrally peaked X-ray morphology which coupled with its non-thermal emission, suggested that the SNR's central engine was an undetected pulsar. Last year, a radio pulsar associated with the remnant was discovered (Gupta et al. 2005; Camilo et al. 2006). These announcements concur on the period of the pulsar and its period derivative making it the second highest spin-down luminosity pulsar. Deep Chandra imaging uncovered the missing shell (Matheson & Safi-Harb, 2005). Recent INTEGRAL and SWIFT/BAT slew observations detected G21.5--0.9 at more than 10 and 8 sigma respectively.

HESS J1731-347 is one of only 3 TeV SNRs which have a radio shell and possible thermal X-rays.

It has a polarized non-thermal radio spectrum. t has very unique morphology of elongated and loop-like structure. However, no crucial observational result determining the nature has been obtained. With the Suzaku AO3 observation of the Tornado (50ks), we found interesting signs of 2.45-keV He like S-K line, diffuse emission from the "tail" and the whole "head". The purpose of this observation is to obtain precise spectrum and spatial distribution. If the thermal S-K line is confirmed and it has a high metal abundance, the nature of the Tornado is an SNR. We also investigate the extreme structure of the tail and search for power-law component in spectra.

The plasma in the interior is the fossil of the progenitor star. Recently, we found a region in the central part of the Loop where the shell is very thin. The observation in this region will show the precise mass of the progenitor star. We found most of the shell region showed extremely low abundance.

Goals of the present observation are the following: (1) Resolve the three iron emission lines (6.41 keV, 6.67 keV and 6.97 keV) with Suzaku, and compare with the point source population determined by Chandra to clarify what kinds of sources are responsible for which emission line. (2) Study Galactic latitudinal variation of the three emission lines comparing with the existent Suzaku observation at (l,b)=(0.0, -2.0).

We first discovered this structure with ROSAT. Then with ASCA, we found that the spectrum exhibits thin thermal emission accompanied with a hard tail which may be nonthermal radiation from high energy electrons. These results imply presence of a strong shock in this region, possibly due to a jet from Sgr A*. The diffuse emission may be a fossil of the past activities. With the observation of Suzaku, we obtain the richest statistics ever achieved. Then we will reveal the shock front from the image, and verify the past activities of the massive blackhole.

Here we propose to confirm and extend these detections by measuring the spatial variation of Cr/Fe line fluxes across the remnant, paying particular attention to the composition of a previously known Fe-rich region along the eastern limb.

Previously, we showed that there is no clear X-ray counterpart to this object with a Suzaku observation, and hence we argued that the object is a real dark particle accelerator. However, there is a young energetic pulsar PSRJ1617-5055 10 arcmin away from HESSJ1616, and another possibility has been proposed that HESSJ1616 is an offset pulsar wind nebula (PWN) driven by the pulsar. If this possibility is correct, a powerful X-ray PWN should be observed as HESSJ1825-137, but such PWN has not been reported. The lack of the detection may be due to small sensitivity of Chandra and XMM-Newton for a diffuse hard X-ray emission. We propose to observe PSRJ1617 to see if there is an extended PWN around this pulsar.

These are not uniform but are clumpy, and show a good spatial correlation. Suzaku found that an unidentified source located in the GC direction, HESS J1745-303 has no hard X-ray continuum, hence a "dark accelerator". Unlike to the other TeV sources, this exhibits a hint of the 6.4-keV line. With follow-up observations, we will set a severer upper-limit of the continuum hard X-rays. We then examine if the 6.4-keV line is really associated to HESS J1745-303. This may be good tool to determine the 3-dimentinal position (distance) of this peculiar source.

As the chance coincidence is very unlikely, there should be a connection between the two. Furthermore, previous short Chandra observations of this field have revealed a large-scale asymmetric PWN extending toward the center of the TeV source. Thus, this is an excellent case for testing whether the unidentified TeV sources near young pulsars are, in fact, relic PWNe crushed by the asymmetric SNR reverse shock. We will probe the nature of the X-ray emission by measuring the surface brightness and spatially-resolved spectra across the large extent of the TeV source. Suzaku XIS is ideally suited for this purpose because of its low background.

In addition, we confirmed the existence of metal-rich ejecta in the central portion, but found no evidence of ejecta in the rim regions. To investigate the correlation between the X-ray hard-tail emission and the radio emission, and the distributions of the X-ray emitting ejecta in this SNR, we propose to extend our observations with the Suzaku XIS.

First purpose is to confirm this with the second observtaion.Secondly, to search a long-term variability.

Our past observations have revealed the complex structure of the Loop. We found the abundance inhomogeneity at the edge of the shell, suggesting the existence of the non-thermal component. We also found the blowout region at the center of the Loop. Also, we found the asymmetry of the ejecta distributions, suggesting the asymmetric supernova explosion. Then, our purposes of this observation are summarized in the following three points: 1. To clarify the origin of the abundance inhomogeneity from the shell regions. 2. To determine the accurate structure of the blowout region we found. 3. To investigate the distributions of the heavy elements derived from the hot ejecta component.

It could be true for some sources like HESS J1825-137, while other PWN candidates are sometimes listed simply because they satisfy one or two of the necessary conditions (e.g., there is an energetic pulsar nearby). We then propose a Suzaku observation of HESS J1427-608, which is the most ``unlike'' HESS-unID source to be a PWN. The advantage that we can safely exclude a PWN for its candidate allows us to identify the emission mechanism/origin of HESS J1427-608 more unambiguously compared to other unID sources. We request a 150 ks exposure to constrain the ratio between X-ray and TeV fluxes, which is a good measure of the emission mechanism of TeV sources.

The past activity of Sgr~A$^*$, the Galactic nucleus, may be the origin of 6.4-keV line. We will study 6.4-keV line and verify the X-ray reflection scenario. The second objective is to study the distribution of high ionized and neutral iron lines in the GC region. Chandra observation indicates that H-like iron line is very strong in this region.

Based on our recent observations with the Suzaku XIS, we found an indication of correlation between the X-ray hard-tail emission and radio emission. In addition, we confirmed the existence of metal-rich ejecta in the central portion, but found no evidence of ejecta in the rim regions. To investigate the correlation between the X-ray hard-tail emission and the radio emission, and the distributions of the X-ray emitting ejecta in this SNR, we propose to extend our observations with the Suzaku XIS.

X-ray line emission from low abundant elements (Cr, Mn, and Ni) in young supernova remnants (SNR) provides an excellent opportunity to study the Type Ia SN nucleosynthesis and thus to reveal the metallicity of the progenitor. Suzaku XIS observations are an efficient tool for such an X-ray spectroscopy. We propose a deep Suzaku XIS observation of Kepler's SNR to study the peculiar nature of its Type Ia SN progenitor. Our proposed Suzaku X-ray study of the Cr, Mn, and Ni line emission in Kepler will reveal the progenitor's metallicity in an unprecedented detail, which will be an excellent complementary work to the existing Suzaku Long Program of Tycho's SNR to reveal the nature of Type Ia SN progenitors.

In any case, the RRC have essential and new clues for the mechanisms, evolution and/or even the cosmic-ray acceleration of IC443.

We will investigate this FVW with low-background observations of Suzaku, in order to search for thermal emission from the undiscovered supernova remnant.

TeV gamma-ray emissions are direct evidence for the presence of high energy particles above TeV, but, nonetheless, many of the new extended sources are very faint in any other wavelength. In fact, we observed HESS J1616-518 in Suzaku PV phase already and found its X-ray flux is quite low compared to its TeV gamma-ray flux. It is appropriate to be called ''Dark Accelerator'' and such objects might mainly contribute to the Galactic Cosmic rays.

Some of these progenitors are expected to significantly modify ambient medium around them prior to SN explosions. A standard Type Ia SNR model, a white dwarf explosion in a uniform ambient medium, fails to account for bright Fe-rich ejecta and faint blast waves seen in majority of Type Ia SNRs in the Magellanic Clouds. A promising explanation involves presence of dense circumstellar medium (CSM) around their progenitors. We propose a Suzaku study of 4 mature Type Ia SNRs in the LMC, with the goal of determining chemical abundances, temperatures and ionization ages within their ejecta. This will allow us to construct dynamical SNR models, and learn about their CSM and progenitors.

These fragments are indeed ejecta, but originating in different layers of the precursor. We propose to observe another fragment, "B". The abundances and distribution will provide further evidence about the origin and evolution of these ejecta clumps, In combination with the existing observations of fragments A and D, these data will provide a much more complete picture of the variation in ejecta fragment abundances and their interaction with the remnant shell and the surrounding ISM.

It affects a lot the study on chemical and thermal evolution of universe, but the origin is still unknown. HB21 is an old SNR with molecular cloud interaction and GeV gamma-rays, which remind us typical over-ionization SNRs. On the other hand, the interacting molecular cloud is much smaller or thinner than those interacting with over-ionization SNRs, and as a result, HB21 can be the key target to study the origin of over-ionization. Suzaku deep observation of HB21 south (interacting point) will determine the condition of plasma and judge whether it is in over-ionization or not, which will show us the origin of over-ionizing plasma.

Particulary puzzling is the brightest filament of Vela X. It has an apparent X-ray counterpart which was thought to be the jet of the Vela pulsar energizing the Vela X complex. This seemingly straightforward interpretation has been ruled out by the Chandra discovery of the true pulsar jets. To elucidate the nature of the filament and the Vela X complex and their connection to the Vela pulsar, we propose spatially-resolved spectroscopy of the radio/X-ray filament with XIS. Simultaneously, we will measure the spectra of the Vela pulsar and PWN between 10 and 600 keV and perform phase-resolved spectroscopy of the pulsar in the 20-50 keV band.

Since the standard evolution of SNR does not predict RP, the Suzaku discovery requires a dramatic change on the scenario of SNR dynamics and evolution. Suggestive facts are that all RP detected SNRs have OH masers and all RP-detected SNRs have TeV/GeV emissions. The most important issue at this stage, however, is not model making, but systematic and comprehensive observations to study which kind of SNRs, and/or which circum SN conditions, are responsible to RP. This is our primary objective. The second aim of this proposal is to provide path-finding data for the Astro-H science.

Its radio and gamma-ray surface brightness peaks to the south of the pulsar, suggesting that the nebula was crushed by the reverse shock which propagated more rapidly from the north than the south through an inhomogeneous ambient medium. The X-ray morphology is not yet known. Recently, we found that the X-ray extent is larger than the radio extent in the northeastern and eastern directions. We here propose ten Suzaku XIS observations in these two directions to study the history of the Vela PWN; for instance, to investigate whether the radio-emitting PWN is the relic of PWN-reverse shock interactions, whereas the X-ray-emitting PWN is more recently formed by freshly injected particles.

Since the standard evolution of SNR does not predict RP, the Suzaku discovery requires a dramatic change on the scenario of SNR dynamics and evolution. Suggestive facts are that all RP detected SNRs have OH masers and all RP-detected SNRs have TeV/GeV emissions. The most important issue at this stage, however, is not model making, but systematic and comprehensive observations to study which kind of SNRs, and/or which circum SN conditions, are responsible to RP. This is our primary objective. The second aim of this proposal is to provide path-finding data for the Astro-H science.

There are no counterparts in radio, infrared, X-ray bands and thus the origin is still mystery, but the object represents several hints; X-ray source like pulsar wind nebula exists near the object, and the location is at the edge of the large molecular cloud near a radio supernova remnant. The main purpose of the Suzaku observation with the best use of high sensitive capability in diffuse X-rays and of a unique low galactic-absorption feature of the object is to determine the origin of TeV emission, such as old supernova remnant with molecular cloud, pulsar-wind driven radiations, or darkest accelerator.

This suggests that the major part of the emission is originating from the halo of our galaxy. However, we cannot rule out the possibility that the data is contaminated by solar wind charge exchange emission from the entire heliosphere.

The aim of the observation is to clarify whether the TeV gamma-ray emission is of a leptonic or hadronic origin by searching for an X-ray counterpart to a level down to $10^{-14}$~erg cm$^{-2}$ s$^{-1}$. A non-detection of an X-ray nebula would strongly disfavor a leptonic origin of the TeV emission and add to the already strong multi-wavelength data which all suggests a hadronic origin of the emission. Since the spectrum of this unique source extends above many tens of TeV this would mean that we see, for the first time, evidence for hadronic cosmic rays being accelerated up to PeV energies.

Recent Fermi surveys revealed that particles are more efficiently escaping from the acceleration system when the SNRs get older. However what is still unknown is the plasma condition environment that makes the mechanism more efficient. X-ray observations are an excellent tool to understand the plasma condition but there has not been a systematic X-ray follow-up observations of these Fermi SNRs. The Suzaku Observatory is ideal for such X-ray systematic study because of his low background. We propose here X-ray observations of 4 SNRs detected by Fermi to solve cosmic-ray escape problem.

We have observed the center region of W44 with Suzaku in the AO5 phase. The spectra are well reproduced by a thermal plasma in a recombining phase. While such plasmas have been found from several SNRs, the origin is still unclear. We also discover hard X-ray emission which shows an arc-like structure spatially-correlated with a radio continuum filament. No conventional model for particle acceleration could explain the mechanism of the hard X-ray emission. The entire plasma distribution of W44 will provide a clue to resolve the origins of the reombining plasma and the hard X-ray emission.

This SNR has a centrally peaked X-ray morphology which coupled with its non-thermal emission, suggested that the SNR's central engine was an undetected pulsar. Last year, a radio pulsar associated with the remnant was discovered (Gupta et al. 2005; Camilo et al. 2006). These announcements concur on the period of the pulsar and its period derivative making it the second highest spin-down luminosity pulsar. Deep Chandra imaging uncovered the missing shell (Matheson & Safi-Harb, 2005). Recent INTEGRAL and SWIFT/BAT slew observations detected G21.5--0.9 at more than 10 and 8 sigma respectively. The proposed observation will be the first self-consistent broad-band timing and spectral analysis from soft to very hard X-ray.

We propose the mapping observations on whole RCW86 in order to find the structure of the reverse shock by investigating the morphology of the Fe-line emission. At the same time, we can perform the hard X-ray mapping.

Using Suzaku, we have found that Sgr A* had been in the active phase for almost a thousand years and dropped down to the quiescent level tens of years ago. However, no detailed information during the active phase and transition has been obtained from observations to study a mechanism of the sudden phase change. We aim to observe new information about time variability and relative positions from X-ray reflection nebulae to find the past light curve of Sgr A*.

The Chandra observation of N63A showed possible signatures of He-like Fe emission and radiative recombination continua of Si and S. With the new observation by Suzaku, we will determine the plasma state of this SNR. The remarkable characteristic of 0509-67.5 is its extremely-low ionization age. This SNR, therefore, provides us a unique opportunity to explore detailed emission features of lowly-ionized atoms. The immediate objective of this observation is to accurately measure the Fe K-beta to K-alpha flux ratio to constrain the dominant charge state of the Fe ejecta.

This source is one of the most interesting source in the HESS catalog since it is the first and the only TeV gamma-ray emitter that shows energy dependent morphology. However, all the gamma-ray emitting region is not covered by X-ray observatories. We propose Suzaku observations of HESS J1825-137 region, which has not been covered by other X-ray satellites. By comparing the spectral and morphological properties of X-ray emission with those of TeV gamma-rays, we can probe the morophology and strength of the magnetic fiels, which should reveal the physical processes of acceleration, diffusion, and radiation of relativistic electrons.

We discovered extended X-ray emission which coincides with the TeV emission. Then we propose to observe the other peak. We also found a bright object between the double peaks. HESSJ1614 may be a pulsar wind nebula, and the object may be a pulsar driving the nebula. However, the object was just at the edge of the XIS field of view, we could not study it in detail.

Based on the previous observation, the shell region shows relatively low temperature with low metal abundance while the interior shows high temperature with high metal abundance. The plasma in the interior is the fossil of the progenitor star. Recently, we found a region in the central part of the Loop where the shell is very thin. The observation in this region will show the precise mass of the progenitor star. We found most of the shell region showed extremely low abundance. This may suggest that the plasma in the shell region consists of a thin thermal spectrum and a non-thermal spectrum. We may be able to find a region showing non-thermal emission. We propose to observe the Cygnus Loop for 180ks.

Observing G166 with Suzaku as a laboratory of recombining plasma, 1) we examine if a recombining plasma in a SNR is created through rarefaction by blow-out. 2) We construct a model of creation of a recombining plasma in a SNR.

Little is known about G189; ROSAT images show a shell-like structure about 1.5$^{circ}$ in diameter, but it has never been observed with modern X-ray telescopes. Its association, or lack thereof, with IC 443 is unknown. It may not be a supernova remnant at all; a superbubble origin for the X-ray emission also provides an intriguing possibility. Spatially-resolved spectroscopy with Suzaku will allow the detailed measurement of the plasma properties, illuminating the nature of this object. Determining the nature of G189 will help to probe the evolution of the ISM driven by the deaths of massive stars.

These SNRs were detected in the infrared by Spitzer and their infrared colors suggest that shocked molecules produce the observed emission. Published analyses of the X-ray emission from these SNRs (along with our own analysis of archival XMM-Newton and Chandra observations of these sources) reveals that the emission from both Kes 69 and 3C 396 is thermal and that they may both be mixed-morphology SNRs (MMSNRs) but deeper observations are needed to clarify their X-ray spectral properties. In particular, we will investigate whether these X-ray emitting plasmas are overionized, which is observed for other MMSNRs.

Additional data from Fermi reinforce this hypothesis due to the detection of jet and cocoon structures in the southern bubble. There are signatures of the bubbles at X-ray energies, implying they contain relatively cool gas (10^6 K) and/or are influencing the Milky Way's hot gas halo. We propose Suzaku XIS observations to analyze the soft X-ray emission from these regions, which will allow us to constrain the density, temperature, and expansion velocity of these features.

These are rare emission regions, occurring in fewer than 1% of the fields and they are not due to known extended emission regions (SNR, galaxy clusters, etc.). These emission anomalies probably signify locations of unusual physics, such as shocks, conductive heating, or local heat injection. We propose observations to determine the angular extent of these unusual regions and to better define the intensities of the O VII and O VIII lines. These observations will help identify the relevant physical process and the nature of the phenomenon causing them.

We propose a multi-year monitoring campaign to measure and characterize the SWCX properties.

These fragments are indeed ejecta, but originating in different layers of the precursor. We propose to observe two of the remaining ejecta fragments.

However, the covered area of the GB have been limited. We thus propose a new Key project focusing on the GB region. Objectives are (I) a search for an over-ionized plasma north of the GB as a counterpart of GB south, a relic of past Sgr A* activity, and (II) discovering unexpected features with unprecedented sensitivity of Suzaku for diffuse faint emissions. This Key project, together with the previous Key project on the GC, can complete the data set of the extended GC region as the Suzaku legacy.

These are not uniform but are clumpy, and show a good spatial correlation. Suzaku found that an unidentified source located in the GC direction, HESS J1745-303 has no hard X-ray continuum, hence a "dark accelerator". Unlike to the other TeV sources, this exhibits a hint of the 6.4-keV line. With follow-up observations, we will set a severer upper-limit of the continuum hard X-rays. We then examine if the 6.4-keV line is really associated to HESS J1745-303. This may be good tool to determine the 3-dimentinal position (distance) of this peculiar source.

We also found the blowout region at the center of the Loop. Also, we found the asymmetry of the ejecta distributions, suggesting the asymmetric supernova explosion. Then, our purposes of this observation are summarized in the following three points: 1. To clarify the origin of the abundance inhomogeneity from the shell regions. 2. To determine the accurate structure of the blowout region we found. 3. To investigate the distributions of the heavy elements derived from the hot ejecta component. We propose the 410ks observations in total.

As the chance coincidence is very unlikely, there should be a connection between the two. Furthermore, previous short Chandra observations of this field have revealed a large-scale asymmetric PWN extending toward the center of the TeV source. Thus, this is an excellent case for testing whether the unidentified TeV sources near young pulsars are, in fact, relic PWNe crushed by the asymmetric SNR reverse shock. We will probe the nature of the X-ray emission by measuring the surface brightness and spatially-resolved spectra across the large extent of the TeV source. Suzaku XIS is ideally suited for this purpose because of its low background.

The available X-ray data provides rather poor constraints on the physical properties of the remnant. We propose to perform a deep Suzaku observation to obtain good spectral data. Joint spectral analyses of Suzaku and radio data will enable us to accurately and precisely measure the synchrotron spectral index and cutoff frequency, the electron temperature, the emission measure, and, perhaps, the relative elemental abundances. As a result, it will be possible to compute accurate and precise values for the spectral index and maximum energy of the nonthermal electrons, the strength of the magnetic field, and the ambient density, age, and shock velocity.

In the analogy of the past discovery of Non-Equilibrium Ionization (NEI) in the SNR plasmas, the discovery of the RRC will provide new insight on the explosion mechanisms and evolution of SNRs. Since the SNR-RRC is diffuse X-ray structure, systematic study of RRC can be a legacy of Suzaku as well as the key science for the Astro-H project. The next process to develop the newly born RRC science is to search for what underlying physics does determine the presence or absence of the RRC structure. Thus we propose to observe several non-shell-like thermal SNRs. The results can be the data-base for future studies.

In addition to these bullets, signatures of ejecta inside the main shell have been uncovered in recent X-ray studies. Mostly, these are rich in light metals such as O, Ne, or Mg, whereas no Fe-rich ejecta had yet been detected. Based on archival XMM-Newton data, we found a possible Fe-rich ejecta bullet headed roughly in the opposite direction of Vela pulsar's motion. This would provide us with a window into the core-collapse SN explosion of the Vela SNR. Since its electron temperature is very low (~0.1 keV), the good Suzaku XIS response below 0.5 keV is suitable to study this object. We propose to observe it in four pointings.

X-ray line emission from low abundant elements (Cr, Mn, and Ni) in young supernova remnants (SNR) provides an excellent opportunity to study the Type Ia SN nucleosynthesis and thus to reveal the metallicity of the progenitor. Suzaku XIS observations are an efficient tool for such an X-ray spectroscopy. We propose a deep Suzaku XIS observation of Kepler's SNR to study the peculiar nature of its Type Ia SN progenitor. Our proposed Suzaku X-ray study of the Cr, Mn, and Ni line emission in Kepler will reveal the progenitor's metallicity in an unprecedented detail, which will be an excellent complementary work to the existing Suzaku Long Program of Tycho's SNR to reveal the nature of Type Ia SN progenitors.

Based on the previous observation, the shell region shows relatively low temperature with low metal abundance while the interior shows high temperature with high metal abundance. The plasma in the interior is the fossil of the progenitor star. Recently, we found a strong Si-K line emission from the southernmost blowout region where the shell is very thin. The complete observation of this region will reveal a pure ejecta of this remnant. We may also be able to reveal a whole picture of an asymmetric ejecta distribution of the Cygnus Loop.

Radio observation shows that this SNR has shell-type structure in the north-west and south-east. High energy diffuse gamma-ray emission have been recently detected from the north-west shell by Fermi gamma-ray space telescope and VERITAS TeV telescope. Main objective of this proposal is to reveal the emission mechanisms not only in X-ray band but also in GeV and TeV bands through the extent of the X-ray emission and spectroscopy. Only Suzaku can achieve this, because the background level of XIS is very low and the broadness of the energy band.

S147 has a jet like structure suggesting that it was a core collapse supernova. The formation mechanism of the jet remains unclear for the progenitor which has a small mass and creates a neutron star by its explosion. An asymmetric explosion causes a inhomogeneous metallicity abundance. Therefore, we investigate the inhomogeneous by the plasma diagnosis in the X-ray band to obtain the evidence of the jet formation. This will be the limit of theoretical model for the supernova explosion. S147 is also the GeV gamma-ray source. Therefore, we can study the acceleration mechanism of the cosmic rays in the very old SNR if we detect the nonthermal X-ray emission from it.

Its radio and gamma-ray surface brightness peaks to the south of the pulsar, suggesting that the nebula was crushed by the reverse shock which propagated more rapidly from the north than the south through an inhomogeneous ambient medium. The X-ray morphology is not yet known. Recently, we found that the X-ray extent is larger than the radio extent in the northeastern and eastern directions. We here propose ten Suzaku XIS observations in these two directions to study the history of the Vela PWN; for instance, to investigate whether the radio-emitting PWN is the relic of PWN-reverse shock interactions, whereas the X-ray-emitting PWN is more recently formed by freshly injected particles.

We here propose a mapping observation in the northern direction. Our immediate objective is to investigate how much extended the Vela PWN is in the north where the thermal pressure is significantly higher than that in the east we observed so far. The comparison of the X-ray extent in two directions with different environmental conditions will provide key information of origin of the faint, newly-discovered component.

TeV gamma-ray observations provide indirect evidences of cosmic ray acceleration, although the sources detected so far have softer spectra than what would be expected by particle accelerators to explain the observed distribution of cosmic rays at the knee. HESS J1641-463 is the hardest TeV gamma-ray source ever found. With Suzaku's large effective area, and low and stable background, we will perform the first deep X-ray observation of this source to seek for its X-ray counterpart, and to identify its nature. It will provide a direct look into the physics of the highest energy particle accelerators in our Galaxy, responsible for the cosmic ray spectrum up to the spectral knee at PeV energies.

This cluster has two subclusters, both showing ICM temperatures of 4-6 keV, and a bright "bridge" region which connects the two cores. The "bridge" exhibits a high temperature of about 9 keV. This cluster is an archetypal case showing clear and unique symptoms of shock heating and particle acceleration in a probably early stage of major merger. To further clarify the merging geometry, and to quantify the scale and energetic of shock heating, we propose to observe this cluster with four new pointings using the Suzaku XIS.

This remnant is of particular interest because it is expanding in a low-density medium, appears sub-energetic, and has mixed-morphology, with central thermal X-ray emission surrounded by a radio synchrotron shell. Fits to the spectrum suggest a Type Ia SNR, but the possible presence of a pulsar wind nebula challenges that interpretation. The new pointings will significantly improve the statistics for key regions (rims and background), allowing us to type the remnant, determine its age, study its energetics, place limits on nonthermal X-ray emission, and better characterize the PWN.

The combination of absorption and emission measurements provides a powerful tool in this regard. Instead of average emission and absorption measures used in previous studies, one immediate step forward would be to use emission measures close to absorption sightlines. With proposed observations we will determine emission measures close to five sightlines in which we have the most accurate absorption measurements with Chandra. This will break the degeneracy between density and path-length and robustly measure the extent and mass of the warm-hot halo, placing strongest constraints yet on the fraction of missing baryons in the warm-hot plasma.

Additional data from Fermi reinforce this hypothesis due to the detection of jet and cocoon structures in the southern bubble. There are signatures of the bubbles at X-ray energies, implying they contain relatively cool gas (10^6 K) and/or are influencing the Milky Way's hot gas halo. We propose Suzaku XIS observations to analyze the soft X-ray emission from these regions, which will allow us to constrain the density, temperature, and expansion velocity of these features.

They have a shell-type morphology in the radio, but the X-ray emission is centrally dominated. X-ray spectroscopy of several of these supernova remnants, indicate that their central plasma is often over-ionised and have enhanced abundances. Here we propose to study a typical member of this class, which has so far not received much attention, despite being bright and only mildly absorbed: 3C400.2. The remnant can be covered with four pointings, and is bright enough for imaging spectroscopy on the scale of the Suzaku PSF.

By utilizing high sensitivity of the Suzaku XIS, particularly for diffuse X-rays, we aim to detect X-ray counterparts, presumably unknown pulsar wind nebulae.

HB9 is a member of the class of Galactic SNRs which are distinguished by their contrasting radio and X-ray morphologies. Prior X-ray observations of HB9 have suggested that the SNR may have a hard component to its X-ray emission, but the true nature of this emission and its origin (a background AGN, intercluster gas associated with the cluster that harbors the AGN or the SNR itself) remains elusive. Our proposed observations will help identify the true nature of the hard emission as well as search for spectral variations (and possible overionization) in the properties of the X-ray emitting plasma associated with the SNR.

We propose a multi-year monitoring campaign to measure and characterize the SWCX properties.

Based on this information we aim to study the emission mechanism and particle acceleration in pulsars.

Our immediate objective is to detect weak emissions, Cr K-alpha, Mn K-alpha, and Fe K-beta lines, which are key to diagnosing the evolution of the Type Ia SN progenitor and the efficiency of collisionless electron heating at the SNR reverse shock. Although the total requested exposure is quite long, the observation is well worth the risk and will certainly provide a heritage dataset prominent in the legacy of Suzaku. This proposal consists of the two steps. The first science goal requires the 400-ks exposure, while the second goal requires additional 800 ks. Approval of only the first step will be accepted.

They must be powerful cosmic-ray accelerators, although their origin is still unknown due to the lack of information in other wavelengths. We investigate one of the extended sample with radio SNR counterpart, CTB 37B, which is marginally detected on the edge of ASCA GIS. ASCA spectrum shows rather soft power-law feature, indicating that there are both thermal and non-thermal X-ray emission. With the low background of XISs and HXD, parameters of both components are determined with 80 ks exposure. The non-thermal component suggests the new sample of accelerators, and the thermal compopent reveals the condition of the proton acceleration site, for the first time.

The comparison of Suzaku and VLA 90cm images show a hit for special correlation, suggest a magnetic confinement of GCDX. Thus, in order to search for new SNRs and investigate the galactic latitude dependency of the GCDX, we make a GC observation with the aiming point of (l,b)=(0.25, -0.27).

In this project, we will extend the same study to the GRDX, and solve the origin of the GRDX and reveal possible relation to the GCDX. In addition, the GC region is a treasure house of high energy astrophysics, hence will certainly produce many scientific results (many refereed papers), as we have already demonstrated in the PV and AO1 phase observations: 12 accepted refereed papers with 1.2 M-sec observations.

Observations at energies above 10 keV with HXD will probe the cut-off energy of the synchrotron spectrum, shedding light on the electron acceleration efficiency.

Recent HESS data have revealed a shell-like morphology in TeV gamma-rays, which motivates us to map the remnant's shell with Suzaku XIS and HXD. The sensitivity of Suzaku HXD PIN detector in the 10-50 keV range is high enough to detect the hard X-ray synchrotron emission from the northwest and north rims. With Suzaku XIS, we will measure keV-to-TeV flux ratios in a wide area of the remnant.

This requires estimates of the expansion velocity and mass swept-up the pulsar wind nebulae, best obtained by analyzing the spectrum of the thermal X-rays emitting by this material. In the proposal, we request a 50ks observation of four of the most energetic pulsar wind nebulae in the Milky Way to both detect such thermal X-ray emission and use the measured spectral properties to infer the ejecta mass and kinetic energy of their progenitor supernova and the initial spin period of the central neutron star -- all currently unmeasurable using the currently available information.

The classification as a VHE Pulsar Wind Nebula (PWN) was confirmed by observations of the region with XMM-Newton and Suzaku. XMM showed a compact X-ray PWN around the pulsar, whereas Suzaku revealed low surface brightness emission close to the VHE source. To morphologically connect this low surface brightness emission to the X-ray PWN, we propose another short, 20 ksec Suzaku pointing, aiming between the VHE source center and the pulsar location. The data will allow to identify the new Suzaku source with the compact X-ray PWN. The spectra will be used to investigate the unusual particle energy distribution that is derived from the hard VHE spectrum.

Our past observations have revealed the complex structure of the Loop. We found the abundance inhomogeneity at the edge of the shell, suggesting the existence of the non-thermal component. We also found the blowout region at the center of the Loop. Also, we found the asymmetry of the ejecta distributions, suggesting the asymmetric supernova explosion. Then, our purposes of this observation are summarized in the following three points: 1. To clarify the origin of the abundance inhomogeneity from the shell regions. 2. To determine the accurate structure of the blowout region we found. 3. To investigate the distributions of the heavy elements derived from the hot ejecta component. We propose the 410ks observations in total.

With the observations with Chandra and XMM, quite large ambiguity of ionization age for each element remains because of the limited energy resolution in the soft energy band. Utilizing the supreme energy resolution and background property of Suzaku/XIS, we propose the observation of the youngest type Ia SNR in the LMC, 0509-67.5.

In the analogy of the past discovery of Non-Equilibrium Ionization (NEI) in the SNR plasmas, the discovery of the RRC will provide new insight on the explosion mechanisms and evolution of SNRs. Since the SNR-RRC is diffuse X-ray structure, systematic study of RRC can be a legacy of Suzaku as well as the key science for the Astro-H project. The next process to develop the newly born RRC science is to search for what underlying physics does determine the presence or absence of the RRC structure. Thus we propose to observe several non-shell-like thermal SNRs. The results can be the data-base for future studies.

Based on the previous observation, the shell shows relatively low temperature with low metal abundance and high non-uniformity in intensity. The interior shows high temperature with high abundance. It also shows the abundance non-uniformity. The inner plasma is the fossil of the progenitor star. The abundance non-uniformity indicates the asymmetric explosion. We propose to observe the rest of the Cygnus Loop for 310ks with three objectives that are tightly correlated to each other. The first is to establish the metal structure that is the key to study the asymmetric explosion. The second is to measure the amount of metal that can determine the progenitor mass.

By observing two brightest SBs (DEM L 86 and DEM L 199) in the LMC, we investigate the universality of particle acceleration in SBs, and make the conclusion if SBs are the primary acceleration cites of the galactic cosmic rays. We also investigate the energy crisis problem in SBs, that is, there is a large discrepancy between energy income (SN and stellar wind) and its outlays (thermal/kinetic energy of the shell). By estimating the thermal energies of the SB shells precisely, we measure the amount of missing energy and the conversion efficiency to the non-thermal particles.

We request deep Suzaku XIS observations of the soft X-ray background in the vicinity of LMC X-3, toward which we have already conducted far-UV and X-ray absorption line spectroscopy.

In addition to these bullets, signatures of ejecta inside the main shell have been uncovered in recent X-ray studies. Mostly, these are rich in light metals such as O, Ne, or Mg, whereas no Fe-rich ejecta had yet been detected. Based on archival XMM-Newton data, we found a possible Fe-rich ejecta bullet headed roughly in the opposite direction of Vela pulsar's motion. This would provide us with a window into the core-collapse SN explosion of the Vela SNR. Since its electron temperature is very low (~0.1 keV), the good Suzaku XIS response below 0.5 keV is suitable to study this object. We propose to observe it in four pointings. The requested exposure time is 20 ks each, resulting in a total exposure time of 80 ks.

The X-ray spectrum exhibit a power-law shape, and the radius and X-ray luminosity estimated from the ASCA results are similar to those of SN 1006, which suggests that it is a SN 1006-like SNR.

Suzaku XIS observations are an efficient tool for such an X-ray spectroscopy. We propose a deep Suzaku XIS observation of Kepler's SNR to study the peculiar nature of its Type Ia SN progenitor. Our proposed Suzaku X-ray study of the Cr, Mn, and Ni line emission in Kepler will reveal the progenitor's metallicity in an unprecedented detail, which will be an excellent complementary work to the existing Suzaku Long Program of Tycho's SNR to reveal the nature of Type Ia SN progenitors.

The ASCA observation of CTB 1 suggested a hard X-ray emission in the 3 - 10 keV band. The hard emission may be originated in synchrotron radiation (non-thermal) or in thermal bremsstrahlung (kT ~ 3 keV). In the case of the non-thermal origin, the old SNR still accelerate electrons up to 100 TeV. On the other hand, the thermal origin indicates that very hot plasma is still kept in such an old SNR.

We chose one pointing where the turbulent mixing of hot and cooler gas should be large, and an adjacent pointing where the mixing should be small. From our previous Suzaku observation at a region far from the plane, we derived an ionization timescale for the non-equilibrium plasma which is apparently inconsistent with the age of the SNR. Our proposed observations will allow a detailed comparison of the plasma conditions in these regions with very different histories, and initial and current conditions.

Observations of these shadows enable us to disentangle the various components of the SXRB. Unfortunately, to date, shadowing observations with XMM or Suzaku have only been published for three directions, all in the southern Galactic hemisphere. We propose two new pairs of on- and off-cloud shadowing observations, in order to sample the northern Galactic hemisphere. Our particular goal is to obtain accurate X-ray spectra of the Galactic halo, which we will compare with the predictions of models of galactic fountains and infalling extragalactic material.

Since the standard evolution of SNR does not predict RP, the Suzaku discovery requires a dramatic change on the scenario of SNR dynamics and evolution. Suggestive facts are that all RP detected SNRs have OH masers and all RP-detected SNRs have TeV/GeV emissions. The most important issue at this stage, however, is not model making, but systematic and comprehensive observations to study which kind of SNRs, and/or which circum SN conditions, are responsible to RP. This is our primary objective. The second aim of this proposal is to provide path-finding data for the Astro-H science.

We propose a series of Suzaku observations across the North and South edges of the lobe, 20 ksec x 14 (8 from North and 6 from South) in total. Assuming these bubbles are created by outflow from the GC in the past, we can investigate total energy accumulated in the lobe, shock structure near the edges where non-thermal and thermal pressure is expected to balance.

Observed column density shows that this plasma is located in the galactic center region. Assuming the distance of 8 kpc, the size of the plasma is 40 pc x 120 pc. Then, the estimated total energy of the plasma reaches 8e51 ergs. What is the engine creating such a energetic plasma ? Moreover, the ionization temperature of this plasma is larger than the electron temperature (over-ionized plasma). This condition is peculiar in the standard heating mechanism of a plasma. What is the origin of the over-ionized plasma ? Since the previous Suzaku observation covers only a part of the plasma, we propose the observation of the other part for the further investigation.

Recent Fermi surveys revealed that particles are more efficiently escaping from the acceleration system when the SNRs get older. However what is still unknown is the plasma condition environment that makes the mechanism more efficient. X-ray observations are an excellent tool to understand the plasma condition but there has not been a systematic X-ray follow-up observations of these Fermi SNRs. The Suzaku Observatory is ideal for such X-ray systematic study because of his low background. We propose here X-ray observations of 4 SNRs detected by Fermi to solve cosmic-ray escape problem.

The Fermi LAT revealed recently bright gamma-ray emissions adjacent to the southeastern shell of HB3, indicating the gamma rays originate in shocked molecular clouds associated with the nearby HII region W3/W4. However it is difficult to determine the gamma-ray origins since the HII regions are dominant in all energy bands except for X-ray. Our aim is to obtain the spatial structure and the temperature of thermal X-ray emissions at this site. These information will help us to understand whether HB3 interacts with molecular clouds. For this purpose, we require high sensitivities and the wide field of view to cover the southeastern shell. Suzaku is an ideal X-ray observatory to achieve this objective.

The plasma code of recombining plasma is very limited, due to a lack of accurate information of this plasma process. Since the transient time scale of the recombining plasma in laboratory is very short, useful information is hard to obtain. The recombination features of Fe are located in the energy band of 6-10 keV, where no other prominent structure is found. Therefore the spectrum of W49B in this energy band is ideal to study details of the recombining plasma. We hence propose 400-ksec observations on W49B. This deep observation will serve the fundamental data of the recombining plasma from the space plasma for the first time, which is key information for the future study of space plasma with ASTRO-H.

On the other hand, Fermi-LAT shows that GeV PWN has a totally different spatial distribution from either X-ray or radio PWN. We here propose a mapping observation of GeV PWN in order to investigate if there is yet another population.

The morphology suggests that the shell of G166 follows the normal evolutional scenario of SNR and the wing is formed by blow-out into cavity on the way of the evolution. Observing G166 with Suzaku as a laboratory of recombining plasma, 1) we examine if a recombining plasma in a SNR is created through rarefaction by blow-out. 2) We construct a model of creation of a recombining plasma in a SNR.

We propose a multi-year monitoring campaign to measure and characterize the SWCX properties.

These are not uniform but are clumpy, and show a good spatial correlation. Suzaku found that an unidentified source located in the GC direction, HESS J1745-303 has no hard X-ray continuum, hence a "dark accelerator". Unlike to the other TeV sources, this exhibits a hint of the 6.4-keV line. With follow-up observations, we will set a severer upper-limit of the continuum hard X-rays. We then examine if the 6.4-keV line is really associated to HESS J1745-303. This may be good tool to determine the 3-dimentinal position (distance) of this peculiar source.

Recently, TeV gamma-rays have been detected from one of the FVWs, FVW319.8+0.3, implying that it is a cosmic-ray accelerator. We will investigate this FVW with low-background observations of Suzaku, in order to search for thermal emission from the undiscovered supernova remnant. It is not only the first discovery of X-rays from FVWs, but also the first clue of the cosmic-ray acceleration in FVWs. Even if we could detect nothing, we can conclude that this source is a kind of gdark particle accelerators h with the proposed exposure.

By observing two brightest SBs (DEM L 86 and DEM L 199) in the LMC, we investigate the universality of particle acceleration in SBs, and make the conclusion if SBs are the primary acceleration cites of the galactic cosmic rays. We also investigate the energy crisis problem in SBs, that is, there is a large discrepancy between energy income (SN and stellar wind) and its outlays (thermal/kinetic energy of the shell).

In addition to these bullets, signatures of ejecta inside the main shell have been uncovered in recent X-ray studies. Mostly, these are rich in light metals such as O, Ne, or Mg, whereas no Fe-rich ejecta had yet been detected. Based on archival XMM-Newton data, we found a possible Fe-rich ejecta bullet headed roughly in the opposite direction of Vela pulsar's motion. This would provide us with a window into the core-collapse SN explosion of the Vela SNR. Since its electron temperature is very low (~0.1 keV), the good Suzaku XIS response below 0.5 keV is suitable to study this object. We propose to observe it in four pointings. The requested exposure time is 20 ks each, resulting in a total exposure time of 80 ks.

The ASCA observation of CTB 1 suggested a hard X-ray emission in the 3 - 10 keV band. The hard emission may be originated in synchrotron radiation (non-thermal) or in thermal bremsstrahlung (kT ~ 3 keV). In the case of the non-thermal origin, the old SNR still accelerate electrons up to 100 TeV. On the other hand, the thermal origin indicates that very hot plasma is still kept in such an old SNR. In order to clean up the nature of the hard emission which would give a large impact for the mechanism of particle acceleration and SNR evolution, we propose the Suzaku observation of CTB 1.

Recently, GeV and TeV gamma-ray emission have been detected from the eastern edge of W28. On the other hand, we have observed the central region of W28 and have detected an over-ionized plasma, which can not be produced in the canonical evolution of SNRs. Several SNRs have been turned out to host a over-ionized plasma. All of them are MM SNR and are showing GeV and/or TeV emission. This indicates that there are some physical connections between the existence of high-energy cosmic rays and over-ionized plasma. W28 is the best place to study this possible connection due to the large apparent size. Thus, we propose Suzaku observation of western region of W28, which has not been covered by the previous mapping observations.

We chose one pointing where the turbulent mixing of hot and cooler gas should be large, and an adjacent pointing where the mixing should be small. From our previous Suzaku observation at a region far from the plane, we derived an ionization timescale for the non-equilibrium plasma which is apparently inconsistent with the age of the SNR. Our proposed observations will allow a detailed comparison of the plasma conditions in these regions with very different histories, and initial and current conditions.

The spectral structure shows strong emission like structures at H-like Mg Ly alpha, H-like Si Ly alpha, He-like Ne RRC and He-like Mg RRC. This is the first hint for over ionized plasma in a shell-type SNR. We make three pointing observations with XIS covering the whole of G359.0-0.9 and obtain firm evidence for the ionized plasma.

On the other hand, Fermi-LAT shows that GeV PWN has a totally different spatial distribution from either X-ray or radio PWN. We here propose a mapping observation of GeV PWN in order to investigate if there is yet another population. We also propose to observe the south end of the X-ray PWN into which direction radio PWN is more extended.

G166.0+4.3 (G166 hereafter) is a unique SNR with which we can examine it. The morphology suggests that the shell of G166 follows the normal evolutional scenario of SNR and the wing is formed by blow-out into cavity on the way of the evolution. Observing G166 with Suzaku as a laboratory of recombining plasma, 1) we examine if a recombining plasma in a SNR is created through rarefaction by blow-out. 2) We construct a model of creation of a recombining plasma in a SNR. Using the parameters of G166 such as age and SN energy obtained from the shell, we reconstruct the recombining plasma created by the blow-out in the wing and compare it with the observation.

The combination of absorption and emission measurements provides a powerful tool in this regard. Instead of average emission and absorption measures used in previous studies, one immediate step forward would be to use emission measures close to absorption sightlines. With proposed observations we will determine emission measures close to five sightlines in which we have the most accurate absorption measurements with Chandra. This will break the degeneracy between density and path-length and robustly measure the extent and mass of the warm-hot halo, placing strongest constraints yet on the fraction of missing baryons in the warm-hot plasma.

One of the these enhancement is ostensibly an extension of the local bubble, while the other it is probably due to a region of very bright emission in the halo (z> 400 pc). We can verify the thermal nature of these sources, and look for CNO abyndance ratio differences between local disk and halo gas. It is critical to make these abundance determinations before the low energy response deteriorates any further.

We propose to make three Suzaku observations along a radial line through the arc.

As for the GCDX, we have already found many facts to support that, neither 6.7 keV nor 6.4 keV is attributable to a single origin like integrated point sources. In this project, we will extend the same study to the GRDX, and solve the origin of the GRDX and reveal possible relation to the GCDX. In addition, the GC region is a treasure house of high energy astrophysics, hence will certainly produce many scientific results (many refereed papers), as we have already demonstrated in the PV and AO1 phase observations: 12 accepted refereed papers with 1.2 M-sec observations.

Based on the previous observation, the shell region shows relatively low temperature with low metal abundance while the interior shows high temperature with high metal abundance. The plasma in the interior is the fossil of the progenitor star. Recently, we found a region in the central part of the Loop where the shell is very thin. The observation in this region will show the precise mass of the progenitor star. We found most of the shell region showed extremely low abundance. This may suggest that the plasma in the shell region consists of a thin thermal spectrum and a non-thermal spectrum. We may be able to find a region showing non-thermal emission.

These fragments are indeed ejecta, but originating in different layers of the precursor. We propose to observe two of the remaining ejecta fragments.

We also found the blowout region at the center of the Loop. Also, we found the asymmetry of the ejecta distributions, suggesting the asymmetric supernova explosion. Then, our purposes of this observation are summarized in the following three points: 1. To clarify the origin of the abundance inhomogeneity from the shell regions. 2. To determine the accurate structure of the blowout region we found. 3. To investigate the distributions of the heavy elements derived from the hot ejecta component.

This uncertainty results from the lack of remnants with synchrotron X-ray and GeV emission, needed to distinguish accelerated electrons from protons using broadband spectral modeling. An analysis of recent XMM and Fermi data suggests SNR G304.6+0.1 is just the third remnant with both, but the observed hard X-ray excess is also consistent with bremsstrahlung emission.

X-ray line emission from low abundant elements (Cr, Mn, and Ni) in young supernova remnants (SNR) provides an excellent opportunity to study the Type Ia SN nucleosynthesis and thus to reveal the metallicity of the progenitor. Suzaku XIS observations are an efficient tool for such an X-ray spectroscopy. We propose a deep Suzaku XIS observation of Kepler's SNR to study the peculiar nature of its Type Ia SN progenitor.

We have conducted joint analysis of absorption and emission lines toward several targets until now and successfully constrained the temperature, line-of-sight length, and density of the hot gas of the directions. However, all the line-of-sight lengths of the hot gas for the past surveys stay within the Galactic disc with the radius of 10 kpc, therefore the radial extent of the gas is still unknown. Emission analysis of low-latitude and almost anti-center directed 3C 59 will constrain the extent, and the result will be unambiguous when emission and absorption lines are jointly analyzed.

Prior X-ray studies are limited to a 14 ks ROSAT PSPC observation producing about 500 counts. We expect about 12,000 counts with Suzaku, which should permit basic characterization of the spectrum and morphology of X-rays: shell-type, mixed-morphology (central thermal emission) or even composite (central PWN). Spectral analysis will allow us to determine or estimate shock speed, age, ambient density, and swept-up mass. As more middle-aged remnants are found to have unusual properties such as GeV-TeV emission, the study of objects like G18.8+0.3 assumes greater importance.

Since the standard evolution of SNR does not predict RP, the Suzaku discovery requires a dramatic change on the scenario of SNR dynamics and evolution. Suggestive facts are that all RP detected SNRs have OH masers and all RP-detected SNRs have TeV/GeV emissions. The most important issue at this stage, however, is not model making, but systematic and comprehensive observations to study which kind of SNRs, and/or which circum SN conditions, are responsible to RP. This is our primary objective. The second aim of this proposal is to provide path-finding data for the Astro-H science.

Galactic plane survey. The object is unique in the sense of the location, off the Galactic plane. There are no counterparts in radio, infrared, X-ray bands and thus the origin is still mystery, but the object represents several hints; X-ray source like pulsar wind nebula exists near the object, and the location is at the edge of the large molecular cloud near a radio supernova remnant. The main purpose of the Suzaku observation with the best use of high sensitive capability in diffuse X-rays and of a unique low galactic-absorption feature of the object is to determine the origin of TeV emission, such as old supernova remnant with molecular cloud, pulsar-wind driven radiations, or darkest accelerator.

The observed spectra are well described by the picture that the plasma has experienced sudden cooling in the past and currently undergoes gradual recombination to ionization equilibrium. In the MM SNR W28, we found the spatial correlation between the radio brightness and the thermal evolution (recombination) phase. Hence, the radio-fainter region may have less recombined plasma. Such a plasma should emit strong Fe-K line from the He-like ions. The line flux reflects the initial temperature of RP, which brings the key information of the explosion environment of MM SNRs. For this purpose, we propose a 100-ks observation of W28 south, the possible 'youngest' RP.

Together with the TeV gamma-ray detection by CANGAROO and HESS, it is now confirmed that at least some of the SNRs can actually accelerate electrons up to > 10 TeV. However, such studies have not provided direct information on ``protons'', which is the major component of cosmic-rays. Here we propose to measure spatial distribution of accelerated protons in the shell of RCW 86, and its association with the high energy (>10 TeV) electrons which emit synchrotron X-rays up to 50 keV. Large effective area and the good detection capability of Suzaku will be ideal tools for our scientific goal.

Its radio and gamma-ray surface brightness peaks to the south of the pulsar, suggesting that the nebula was crushed by the reverse shock which propagated more rapidly from the north than the south through an inhomogeneous ambient medium. The X-ray morphology is not yet known. Recently, we found that the X-ray extent is larger than the radio extent in the northeastern and eastern directions. We here propose ten Suzaku XIS observations in these two directions to study the history of the Vela PWN; for instance, to investigate whether the radio-emitting PWN is the relic of PWN-reverse shock interactions, whereas the X-ray-emitting PWN is more recently formed by freshly injected particles.

One of these shrapnel (A) is distinct from the others in that its X-ray spectrum exhibits a high Si abundance, while the other shrapnel exhibit enhanced O, Ne, and Mg abundances. One unexplored ejecta shrapnel (G) is located on the opposite side of the remnant from shrapnel A, suggesting that the SN explosion may have resulted in a jet-counterjet Si-rich structure, reminiscent of Cas A. We propose to observe this shrapnel for the first time to determine if it is also Si-rich like shrapnel A.

We have observed the center region of W44 with Suzaku in the AO5 phase. The spectra are well reproduced by a thermal plasma in a recombining phase. While such plasmas have been found from several SNRs, the origin is still unclear. We also discover hard X-ray emission which shows an arc-like structure spatially-correlated with a radio continuum filament. No conventional model for particle acceleration could explain the mechanism of the hard X-ray emission. The entire plasma distribution of W44 will provide a clue to resolve the origins of the reombining plasma and the hard X-ray emission. We therefore require four pointing observations for totally 280 ks.

The Chandra observation of N63A showed possible signatures of He-like Fe emission and radiative recombination continua of Si and S. With the new observation by Suzaku, we will determine the plasma state of this SNR. The remarkable characteristic of 0509-67.5 is its extremely-low ionization age. This SNR, therefore, provides us a unique opportunity to explore detailed emission features of lowly-ionized atoms. The immediate objective of this observation is to accurately measure the Fe K-beta to K-alpha flux ratio to constrain the dominant charge state of the Fe ejecta. Both observations will provide us crucial datasets useful to improve our knowledge of SNR plasma and atomic physics.

This remnant is of particular interest because it is expanding in a low-density medium, appears sub-energetic, and has mixed-morphology, with central thermal X-ray emission surrounded by a radio synchrotron shell. Fits to the spectrum suggest a Type Ia SNR, but the possible presence of a pulsar wind nebula challenges that interpretation. The new pointings will significantly improve the statistics for key regions (rims and background), allowing us to type the remnant, determine its age, study its energetics, place limits on nonthermal X-ray emission, and better characterize the PWN.

Additional data from Fermi reinforce this hypothesis due to the detection of jet and cocoon structures in the southern bubble. There are signatures of the bubbles at X-ray energies, implying they contain relatively cool gas (10^6 K) and/or are influencing the Milky Way's hot gas halo. We propose Suzaku XIS observations to analyze the soft X-ray emission from these regions, which will allow us to constrain the density, temperature, and expansion velocity of these features.

These are rare emission regions, occurring in fewer than 1% of the fields and they are not due to known extended emission regions (SNR, galaxy clusters, etc.). These emission anomalies probably signify locations of unusual physics, such as shocks, conductive heating, or local heat injection. We propose observations to determine the angular extent of these unusual regions and to better define the intensities of the O VII and O VIII lines. These observations will help identify the relevant physical process and the nature of the phenomenon causing them.

They have a shell-type morphology in the radio, but the X-ray emission is centrally dominated. X-ray spectroscopy of several of these supernova remnants, indicate that their central plasma is often over-ionised and have enhanced abundances. Here we propose to study a typical member of this class, which has so far not received much attention, despite being bright and only mildly absorbed: 3C400.2. The remnant can be covered with four pointings, and is bright enough for imaging spectroscopy on the scale of the Suzaku PSF.

Recently we have discovered recombining plasma from MM SNRs. The existence of recombining plasma implies rapid cooling process in past. Recombining plasma, together with the peculiar morphologies, would indicate a new SNR evolution scenario. Our systematic analysis of recombining SNRs shows that the recombination ages are almost the same, although their dynamical ages range over an order of magnitude. Such a trend can be explained by past rapid rarefaction. This hypothesis can be tested by measuring a recombination age of a dynamically young recombining SNR. We thus propose a 100-ks Suzaku observation of G306.3-0.9, a candidate of the youngest recombining SNR ever.

This is a Chandra deep field where we have spent 100 ksec. We will carry out plasma diagnostics of the Galactic ridge emission using primarily iron lines, and also Kalpha and Kbeta lines of Ne, Mg, Si, and S. The 200 ksec Ridge observation by Suzaku enables us to compare Galactic center and ridge emission lines directly. We believe the Galactic Ridge X-ray emission is truely diffuse, based on our Chandra study. However, there is a claim that the ridge emission is preimaly composed of dim sources down to 10^-16 cgs in 2-10 keV. To end the controversy, we plan to carry out a 1Msec Chandra observation on this Chandra-Suzaku field.

The Carinae Nebula is 10-100 times more luminous than any other giant HII region in our Galaxy in soft X-rays. From an XMM-Newton observation of the eastern tip of the nebula called Car-D1, we found marginal CVI, CV and OVII lines. If it is real, the carbon abundance should be more than >6 solar, and the OVII line requires more than 2-temperature components. To detect those emission lines clearly and address the origin and environment of the diffuse plasma, we propose a Suzaku observation of the Car-D1 region, optimized for the XIS BI chip.

This line of sight was observed by XMM because the line of sight is particularly simple, allowing the isolation of the spectrum of the Local Hot Bubble (LHB). The XMM observation did not isolate the LHB, but did reveal the existance of a cool (kT~0.18 keV) X-ray emitting component between 200 and 2000 pcs away that was morphologically unidentifiable in the ROSAT All-Sky Survey. This component may represent the gas responsible for the 3/4 keV "infill problem", and may represent a previously overlooked high filling factor component of the hot ISM. Suzaku observations along this line of sight, coupled with the Suzaku observation towards MBM12, will allow the isolation of this component. GALACTIC DIFFUSE EMISSION 5 B K.

A decomposition of the spectrum of the Galactic halo by Kuntz & Snowden showed that, to within the uncertainties of the ROSAT All-Sky Survey, the halo emission was composed of two thermal components; a uniform hot component with kT~0.25 keV, and a very patchy soft component with kT~0.1 keV. The soft component is found in only a few isolated regions of the sky, of which the Draco Enhancement is the brightest. This emission is too soft to be studied with XMM.

As for the GCDX, we have already found many facts to support that, neither 6.7 keV nor 6.4 keV is attributable to a single origin like integrated point sources. In this project, we will extend the same study to the GRDX, and solve the origin of the GRDX and reveal possible relation to the GCDX. In addition, the GC region is a treasure house of high energy astrophysics, hence will certainly produce many scientific results (many refereed papers), as we have already demonstrated in the PV and AO1 phase observations: 12 accepted refereed papers with 1.2 M-sec observations.

The strongest gamma-ray emission is located in a region outside of baundary of SNR W28 towards the south of it. We propose Suzaku observations (90 ksec in 3x30 ksec pointings) of this southern gamma-ray source for which, at present, no dedicated coverage at X-ray energies exists. A potential counterpart for this TeV gamma-ray source is the ultra-compact HII region W28A2, exhibiting a powerful bipolar molecular outflow and being a bright radio and IR source. With the X-ray data, we will be able to test this hypothesis, and also to unveil the role that the relatively old SNR W28 plays in this part of the unique region.

Suzaku XIS images obtained by our AO3 program clearly reveal an energy-dependent morphology of Vela Jr for the first time, which strenghens our motivation to cover the whole remnant with Suzaku.

Based on the previous observation, the shell region shows relatively low temperature with low metal abundance while the interior shows high temperature with high metal abundance. The plasma in the interior is the fossil of the progenitor star. Recently, we found a region in the central part of the Loop where the shell is very thin. The observation in this region will show the precise mass of the progenitor star. We found most of the shell region showed extremely low abundance. This may suggest that the plasma in the shell region consists of a thin thermal spectrum and a non-thermal spectrum. We may be able to find a region showing non-thermal emission.

We propose to observe the very vicinity of the AGN to determine the OVII, OVIII and NeIX emission line intensities and the temperature of the warm-hot gas.

In the analogy of the past discovery of Non-Equilibrium Ionization (NEI) in the SNR plasmas, the discovery of the RRC will provide new insight on the explosion mechanisms and evolution of SNRs. Since the SNR-RRC is diffuse X-ray structure, systematic study of RRC can be a legacy of Suzaku as well as the key science for the Astro-H project. The next process to develop the newly born RRC science is to search for what underlying physics does determine the presence or absence of the RRC structure. Thus we propose to observe several non-shell-like thermal SNRs. The results can be the data-base for future studies.

X-ray line emission from low abundant elements (Cr, Mn, and Ni) in young supernova remnants (SNR) provides an excellent opportunity to study the Type Ia SN nucleosynthesis and thus to reveal the metallicity of the progenitor. Suzaku XIS observations are an efficient tool for such an X-ray spectroscopy. We propose a deep Suzaku XIS observation of Kepler's SNR to study the peculiar nature of its Type Ia SN progenitor. Our proposed Suzaku X-ray study of the Cr, Mn, and Ni line emission in Kepler will reveal the progenitor's metallicity in an unprecedented detail, which will be an excellent complementary work to the existing Suzaku Long Program of Tycho's SNR to reveal the nature of Type Ia SN progenitors.

The west-break shows a half-moon shape indicating a rapid expansion in a tenuous plasma. We propose to observe the west-break with SUZAKU for 100 ksec.

S147 has a jet like structure suggesting that it was a core collapse supernova. The formation mechanism of the jet remains unclear for the progenitor which has a small mass and creates a neutron star by its explosion. An asymmetric explosion causes a inhomogeneous metallicity abundance. Therefore, we investigate the inhomogeneous by the plasma diagnosis in the X-ray band to obtain the evidence of the jet formation. This will be the limit of theoretical model for the supernova explosion. S147 is also the GeV gamma-ray source. Therefore, we can study the acceleration mechanism of the cosmic rays in the very old SNR if we detect the nonthermal X-ray emission from it.

Characterizing and modeling SWCX emission requires understanding the distribution of neutral material in the magnetosheath and heliosphere, the properties and distribution of the solar wind, and the interaction cross-sections. We propose a multi-year monitoring campaign to measure and characterize the SWCX properties. The results will be used to verify and improve models of SWCX emission, an invaluable tool for the proper analysis and interpretation of data from current and future X-ray missions.

Observed column density shows that this plasma is located in the galactic center region. Assuming the distance of 8 kpc, the size of the plasma is 40 pc x 120 pc. Then, the estimated total energy of the plasma reaches 8e51 ergs. What is the engine creating such a energetic plasma ? Moreover, the ionization temperature of this plasma is larger than the electron temperature (over-ionized plasma). This condition is peculiar in the standard heating mechanism of a plasma. What is the origin of the over-ionized plasma ? Since the previous Suzaku observation covers only a part of the plasma, we propose the observation of the other part for the further investigation.

Recent Fermi surveys revealed that particles are more efficiently escaping from the acceleration system when the SNRs get older. However what is still unknown is the plasma condition environment that makes the mechanism more efficient. X-ray observations are an excellent tool to understand the plasma condition but there has not been a systematic X-ray follow-up observations of these Fermi SNRs. The Suzaku Observatory is ideal for such X-ray systematic study because of his low background. We propose here X-ray observations of 4 SNRs detected by Fermi to solve cosmic-ray escape problem.

We have observed the center region of W44 with Suzaku in the AO5 phase. The spectra are well reproduced by a thermal plasma in a recombining phase. While such plasmas have been found from several SNRs, the origin is still unclear. We also discover hard X-ray emission which shows an arc-like structure spatially-correlated with a radio continuum filament. No conventional model for particle acceleration could explain the mechanism of the hard X-ray emission. The entire plasma distribution of W44 will provide a clue to resolve the origins of the reombining plasma and the hard X-ray emission. We therefore require four pointing observations for totally 280 ks.

The observed spectra are well described by the picture that the plasma has experienced sudden cooling in the past and currently undergoes gradual recombination to ionization equilibrium. In the MM SNR W28, we found the spatial correlation between the radio brightness and the thermal evolution (recombination) phase. Hence, the radio-fainter region may have less recombined plasma. Such a plasma should emit strong Fe-K line from the He-like ions. The line flux reflects the initial temperature of RP, which brings the key information of the explosion environment of MM SNRs. For this purpose, we propose a 100-ks observation of W28 south, the possible 'youngest' RP.

Since the standard evolution of SNR does not predict RP, the Suzaku discovery requires a dramatic change on the scenario of SNR dynamics and evolution. Suggestive facts are that all RP detected SNRs have OH masers and all RP-detected SNRs have TeV/GeV emissions. The most important issue at this stage, however, is not model making, but systematic and comprehensive observations to study which kind of SNRs, and/or which circum SN conditions, are responsible to RP.

They have a shell-type morphology in the radio, but the X-ray emission is centrally dominated. X-ray spectroscopy of several of these supernova remnants, indicate that their central plasma is often over-ionised and have enhanced abundances. Here we propose to study a typical member of this class, which has so far not received much attention, despite being bright and only mildly absorbed: 3C400.2. The remnant can be covered with four pointings, and is bright enough for imaging spectroscopy on the scale of the Suzaku PSF. This will enable us to study spectroscopic variation, confirm the preliminary detection of an RRC and map its distribution, and study the abundances.

This SNR belongs to a class of objects known as mixed-morphology SNRs (MMSNRs) that feature a shell-like radio morphology with a center-filled thermal X-ray morphology: the origin of these contrasting morphologies for these SNRs remains unknown. Our proposed Suzaku observation of this SNR will investigate the putative overabundances of such elements as magnesium, silicon and sulfur (as reported in a previous analysis of an ASCA observation of W63) as well as search for evidence of over-ionization conditions in the X-ray emitting plasma, as has been reported for other MMSNRs.

Recent HESS data have revealed a shell-like morphology in TeV gamma-rays, which motivates us to map the remnant's shell with Suzaku XIS and HXD. The sensitivity of Suzaku HXD PIN detector in the 10-50 keV range is high enough to detect the hard X-ray synchrotron emission from the northwest and north rims. With Suzaku XIS, we will measure keV-to-TeV flux ratios in a wide area of the remnant. The Suzaku X-ray data sets, combined with new HESS data, allow us to investigate the origin of TeV gamma-rays and the nature of cosmic-ray acceleration in supernova shells with an unprecedented level.

In this project, we will extend the same study to the GRDX, and solve the origin of the GRDX and reveal possible relation to the GCDX. In addition, the GC region is a treasure house of high energy astrophysics, hence will certainly produce many scientific results (many refereed papers), as we have already demonstrated in the PV and AO1 phase observations: 12 accepted refereed papers with 1.2 M-sec observations.

Suzaku XIS observations are an efficient tool for such an X-ray spectroscopy. We propose a deep Suzaku XIS observation of Kepler's SNR to study the peculiar nature of its Type Ia SN progenitor. Our proposed Suzaku X-ray study of the Cr, Mn, and Ni line emission in Kepler will reveal the progenitor's metallicity in an unprecedented detail, which will be an excellent complementary work to the existing Suzaku Long Program of Tycho's SNR to reveal the nature of Type Ia SN progenitors.

Little is known about G189; ROSAT images show a shell-like structure about 1.5$^{circ}$ in diameter, but it has never been observed with modern X-ray telescopes. Its association, or lack thereof, with IC 443 is unknown. It may not be a supernova remnant at all; a superbubble origin for the X-ray emission also provides an intriguing possibility. Spatially-resolved spectroscopy with Suzaku will allow the detailed measurement of the plasma properties, illuminating the nature of this object. Determining the nature of G189 will help to probe the evolution of the ISM driven by the deaths of massive stars.

These SMC SNRs are oldest members (18000 and 14000 yr old) of O-rich SNRs and share X-ray spectral characteristics with a young (1000 yr old) O-rich SNR 0102-7219 which is also in the SMC. While sharing similar spectral features with 0102-7219, the morphologies of 0103-72.6 and 0049-73.6 indicate more evolved phases of the SNR in a similar interstellar environment as 0102-7219.

This source may accelerate protons of 100TeV or more. This TeV source is extended, hence likely a supernova remnant (SNR). There are two scenarios on the nature of this source: one is a young SNR in which the proton acceleration is so efficient, and the other is an old SNR with radiative shock. We have already observed this source by Suzaku AO-1, and found a faint, diffuse, nonthermal X-ray emission. However, the current data prevents us from concluding which scenario is favorable since entire region is not yet covered by X-ray observation. In order to clarify the nature of this source, we propose X-ray mapping observations by Suzaku.

The Suzaku spectrum of the chimney shows typical parameters of a super nova remnant. However, the chimney has a linear shape, which is inconsistent with a SNR. Thus, we are considering that the chimney is a blowout from super bubble in the Sgr C region. Another possible scenario is that the chimney would be a part of a shell structure formed by explosions (starburst activities, Sgr A*, magnetic reconnection) in the region of Sgr A and Sgr C.

In the proposal, we request a 50ks observation of four of the most energetic pulsar wind nebulae in the Milky Way to both detect such thermal X-ray emission and use the measured spectral properties to infer the ejecta mass and kinetic energy of their progenitor supernova and the initial spin period of the central neutron star -- all currently unmeasurable using the currently available information.

Our past observations have revealed the complex structure of the Loop. We found the abundance inhomogeneity at the edge of the shell, suggesting the existence of the non-thermal component. We also found the blowout region at the center of the Loop. Also, we found the asymmetry of the ejecta distributions, suggesting the asymmetric supernova explosion. Then, our purposes of this observation are summarized in the following three points: 1. To clarify the origin of the abundance inhomogeneity from the shell regions. 2. To determine the accurate structure of the blowout region we found. 3. To investigate the distributions of the heavy elements derived from the hot ejecta component. We propose the 410ks observations in total.

Based on the previous observation, the shell shows relatively low temperature with low metal abundance and high non-uniformity in intensity. The interior shows high temperature with high abundance. It also shows the abundance non-uniformity. The inner plasma is the fossil of the progenitor star. The abundance non-uniformity indicates the asymmetric explosion. We propose to observe the rest of the Cygnus Loop for 310ks with three objectives that are tightly correlated to each other. The first is to establish the metal structure that is the key to study the asymmetric explosion. The second is to measure the amount of metal that can determine the progenitor mass. The last one is to search for a compact object such as a neutron star.

Some of these progenitors are expected to significantly modify ambient medium around them prior to SN explosions. A standard Type Ia SNR model, a white dwarf explosion in a uniform ambient medium, fails to account for bright Fe-rich ejecta and faint blast waves seen in majority of Type Ia SNRs in the Magellanic Clouds. A promising explanation involves presence of dense circumstellar medium (CSM) around their progenitors. We propose a Suzaku study of 4 mature Type Ia SNRs in the LMC, with the goal of determining chemical abundances, temperatures and ionization ages within their ejecta. This will allow us to construct dynamical SNR models, and learn about their CSM and progenitors.

It affects a lot the study on chemical and thermal evolution of universe, but the origin is still unknown. HB21 is an old SNR with molecular cloud interaction and GeV gamma-rays, which remind us typical over-ionization SNRs. On the other hand, the interacting molecular cloud is much smaller or thinner than those interacting with over-ionization SNRs, and as a result, HB21 can be the key target to study the origin of over-ionization. Suzaku deep observation of HB21 south (interacting point) will determine the condition of plasma and judge whether it is in over-ionization or not, which will show us the origin of over-ionizing plasma.

Its thermal X-ray spectrum is strikingly similar to Tycho's SNR, but unexpectedly X-rays are uniformly distributed throughout the remnant. Our proposed observation will produce high-quality spectra, adequate for detailed studies with some spatial information, that will greatly aid in understanding of this very interesting young remnant.

This is a Chandra deep field where we have spent 100 ksec. We will carry out plasma diagnostics of the Galactic ridge emission using primarily iron lines, and also Kalpha and Kbeta lines of Ne, Mg, Si, and S. The 200 ksec Ridge observation by Suzaku enables us to compare Galactic center and ridge emission lines directly. We believe the Galactic Ridge X-ray emission is truely diffuse, based on our Chandra study. However, there is a claim that the ridge emission is preimaly composed of dim sources down to 10^-16 cgs in 2-10 keV.

Solar wind charge exchange induced emission, reacted with neutrals in the heliosphere (H-SWCX), is considered to have significant influence to the soft diffuse X-ray background under 1 keV. However, there is no significant evidence of the H-SWCX. From this observation, we try to reveal the existence of H-SWCX induced emission by comparing the OVII line emission (0.57 keV) with Suzaku archive data. We also aim to constrain the time variability of H-SWCX emission, depending on the 12 year solar activity.

We have observed the center region of W44 with Suzaku in the AO5 phase. The spectra are well reproduced by a thermal plasma in a recombining phase. While such plasmas have been found from several SNRs, the origin is still unclear. We also discover hard X-ray emission which shows an arc-like structure spatially-correlated with a radio continuum filament. No conventional model for particle acceleration could explain the mechanism of the hard X-ray emission. The entire plasma distribution of W44 will provide a clue to resolve the origins of the reombining plasma and the hard X-ray emission. We therefore require four pointing observations for totally 280 ks.

These are rare emission regions, occurring in fewer than 1% of the fields and they are not due to known extended emission regions (SNR, galaxy clusters, etc.). These emission anomalies probably signify locations of unusual physics, such as shocks, conductive heating, or local heat injection. We propose observations to determine the angular extent of these unusual regions and to better define the intensities of the O VII and O VIII lines. These observations will help identify the relevant physical process and the nature of the phenomenon causing them.

We also found the blowout region at the center of the Loop. Also, we found the asymmetry of the ejecta distributions, suggesting the asymmetric supernova explosion. Then, our purposes of this observation are summarized in the following three points: 1. To clarify the origin of the abundance inhomogeneity from the shell regions. 2.

In the analogy of the past discovery of Non-Equilibrium Ionization (NEI) in the SNR plasmas, the discovery of the RRC will provide new insight on the explosion mechanisms and evolution of SNRs. Since the SNR-RRC is diffuse X-ray structure, systematic study of RRC can be a legacy of Suzaku as well as the key science for the Astro-H project. The next process to develop the newly born RRC science is to search for what underlying physics does determine the presence or absence of the RRC structure. Thus we propose to observe several non-shell-like thermal SNRs. The results can be the data-base for future studies.

The plasma code of recombining plasma is very limited, due to a lack of accurate information of this plasma process. Since the transient time scale of the recombining plasma in laboratory is very short, useful information is hard to obtain. The recombination features of Fe are located in the energy band of 6-10 keV, where no other prominent structure is found. Therefore the spectrum of W49B in this energy band is ideal to study details of the recombining plasma. We hence propose 400-ksec observations on W49B. This deep observation will serve the fundamental data of the recombining plasma from the space plasma for the first time, which is key information for the future study of space plasma with ASTRO-H.

They can play a role in matter and energy transportation among the Galactic plane, the Milky-Way Halo and intergalactic space. In order to reveal origin and physical condition of them, we focus on the part of a hot blob in (ell, b) = (161.505, 40.696) and propose to observe neighboring this area to constrain its size.
