SNR RX J1713.7$-$3946 is one well-studied particle accelerator in our Galaxy because of its strong non-thermal X-ray and gamma-ray radiation. We have performed NuSTAR (3-79 keV) observations of the northwest rim of RX J1713.7$-$3946, where is the brightest part in X-ray and the shock speed is about 4000 km s$^{-1}$. The spatially resolved X-ray emission from RX J1713.7$-$3946 is detected up to 20 keV for the first time. The hard X-ray image in 10-20 keV is broadly similar to "},"claims":{"count":0,"items":[],"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"source":{"id":"1904.12436","kind":"arxiv","version":1},"verdict":{"id":null,"model_set":{},"created_at":null,"strongest_claim":"","one_line_summary":"","pipeline_version":null,"weakest_assumption":"","pith_extraction_headline":""},"references":{"count":0,"sample":[],"resolved_work":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57","internal_anchors":0},"formal_canon":{"evidence_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"author_claims":{"count":0,"strong_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"builder_version":"pith-number-builder-2026-05-17-v1"}
