SUMMARY OF PROPOSAL 41279 DR. KAZUYA WATANABE NIIGATA UNIVERSITY NIIGATA JAPAN 950-21 8050 IGARASHI-2 E-mail: KAZUYA@TH.PHYS.TITECH.AC.JP Tel: 043-290-3544 Fax: 043-290-3544 Medium: 2.5GB8MM Subject: CLUSTERS OF GALAXIES AND SUPERCLUSTERS Title: LOOK FOR A REDSHIFTED IRON K-LINE FROM VERY HIGH REDSHIFT CLUSTER OF GALAXIES USING ASCA AND GRAVITATIONAL TELESCOPE Abstract: The cluster of galaxies Cl0024+17 is a unique object at a redshift of 0.39 since there is a certain evidence of the existence of the backgroud cluster of galaxies at a redshift of higher than 1 which is significantly magnified by lensing effect of Cl0024+17. Our simulation shows that the gravitational magnification due to Cl0024+17 makes the redshifted iron-line from the background cluster observable, which is otherwise hard to detect. We propose the first attack to search for X-ray emission from very distant cluster of galaxies using a foreground rich cluster of galaxies as a gravitational telescope.
