XRISM: X-ray imaging and spectroscopy mission

The X-Ray Imaging and Spectroscopy Mission (XRISM) is a JAXA/NASA X-ray observatory with collaboration from ESA and several institutes and academic institutions worldwide. It is proposed to fulfill the promise of high-resolution X-ray spectroscopy with imaging once realized but unexpectedly terminated by a mishap of ASTRO-H/Hitomi. XRISM carries two sets of X-ray mirror assemblies and is equipped on the focal plane with a [Formula: see text] pixelized X-ray micro-calorimeter array and an aligned X-ray CCD camera. With the combination of high-resolution spectroscopy imaging and the broader field of view, XIRSM is expected to pioneer a new horizon of the Universe in X-ray astrophysics. Aiming to launch the satellite in the Japanese Fiscal Year 2022, we fabricate the instruments and test for the satellite integration starting at the beginning of 2022. This paper reports the development status, reviewing the science objectives and the operation plan.
