X線観測を中心に、飛翔体を用いた太陽物理学の研究を行なっています。

「ひので」、「ようこう」、SDOなどの衛星に搭載されたX線望遠鏡やEUV望遠鏡をはじめとする、飛翔体観測機器のデータを用いて、太陽フレアで発生するプラズマ粒子の爆発的な加熱と加速や、それらの惑星間空間への影響など、コロナ中のプラズマ活動現象の理解をめざします。

また、「ようこう」の硬X線望遠鏡HXTや「ひので」のX線望遠鏡XRTなど、新しい観測を可能とする装置開発を手がけており、現在は、将来の太陽高エネルギープラズマの研究に向けた、高空間分解能・低散乱性能を持つX線斜入射ミラーや、光子計測型の高速X線ピクセル検出器などの開発研究、および将来の飛翔体ミッションの検討を進めています。

I have been engaged in solar physics research with space and sub-orbital observations chiefly in X-ray wavelengths.

By use of data from instruments such as X-ray or EUV telescopes aboard Hinode, Yohkoh, and SDO, I aim to understand plasma activities in the solar corona, including explosive heating and acceleration of coronal plasmas during flares and their interplanetary consequences.

Meanwhile, I have participated in the development of instruments which make possible new observations of the solar corona; e.g., Hard X-ray Telescope (HXT) aboard Yohkoh and X-Ray Telescope (XRT) aboard Hinode. Currently, I am working on research and development of grazing-incidence X-ray mirrors (Wolter mirrors) of high spatial resolution/low scattering performance as well as photon-counting-type high-speed X-ray pixel detectors, together with studies on future space solar X-ray missions.

    Abstract We determine magnetic fields from the photosphere to the upper chromosphere combining data from the Hinode satellite and the CLASP2.1 sounding rocket experiment. CLASP2.1 provided polarization profiles of the Mg ii h and k lines, as well as of the Mn i lines around 2800 Å, across various magnetic structures in an active region, containing a plage, a pore, and the edges of a sunspot penumbra. By applying the weak-field approximation to the circular polarization profiles of these spectral lines, we obtain a longitudinal magnetic field map at three different heights in the chromosphere (lower, middle, and upper). This is complemented by data from Hinode (photospheric magnetic field), the Interface Region Imaging Spectrograph, and the Solar Dynamics Observatory (high spatial resolution observations of the chromosphere and corona). We quantify the height expansion of the plage magnetic fields and find that the magnetic fields expand significantly in the middle chromosphere, shaping the moss observed above in the transition region and corona. We identified an area with polarity reversal at the upper chromosphere around the edge of the pore, suggesting the presence of a magnetic discontinuity in the upper chromosphere. Transient and recurrent jetlike events are observed in this region, likely driven by magnetic reconnection. Around the penumbral edge, we find large-scale magnetic fields corresponding to the superpenumbral fibrils seen in the upper chromosphere. In the superpenumbral fibrils, we find Zeeman-induced linear polarization signals, suggesting the presence of a significantly inclined magnetic field, as strong as 1000 G in the upper chromosphere.
