X-Ray Astronomy Satellite "SUZAKU" Elucidated Tornado
It was announced and disclosed in the latest issue of Publications for the Astronomical Society of Japan (PASJ) of November 25 that Japanese X-ray astronomy satellite “SUZAKU” has discovered the real nature of the “Tornado”.
The “Tornado” was found in 1960 and the remarkable feature is swirling which gives galactic electric waves. Gas pours into a black hole in the shape of a disk, and the part draws a spiral trace as a jet stream of the high energy particle, and the tip emits X-rays. The “SUZAKU” has observed this trace.
Meisei Electric was in charge of development and manufacturing for both hard X-ray detector (HXD) and cryostat control unit installed on the “SUZAKU”.
The mystery of the Space elucidated in sequence is very much exciting for us.
