  We present X-ray images of Tycho's supernova remnant in emission line
features of Mg, Si, S, Ar, Ca, and Fe, plus the continuum, using data obtained
by the imaging spectrometers onboard the ASCA X-ray satellite. All the images
show the shell-like morphology characteristic of previously obtained broad-band
X-ray images, but are clearly distinct from each other. We use image
reconstruction techniques to achieve a spatial resolution of ~0.8'. Line
intensity ratios are used to make inferences about the remnant's physical
state, on average for the entire remnant, and with angular position around the
rim. The average temperature (T) of the Si and S ejecta in the remnant is
(0.8-1.1) X 10^7 K and the average ionization age (nt) is (0.8-1.3) X 10^11
cm^-3 s. For a constant nt, the observed relative brightness variations of Si
and S line image profiles with azimuthalangle imply differences of roughly a
factor of 1.3-1.8 in the temperature. We compare the radial brightness profiles
of our images to simple geometrical models, and find that a spherical emitting
geometry is favored over a torus. A spherical geometry is further supported by
the absence of systematic Doppler shifts across the remnant. The radial fit
results also suggest that some radial mixing of the ejecta has occurred.
However, the azimuthally averaged Fe K image peaks at a markedly lower radius
than the other images. The average Fe K / Fe L line intensity ratio and the
position of the Fe K energy centroid support a T several times higher and an nt
approx. a factor of ten lower than for the other elements, and imply that the
Fe ejecta must have retained some of its stratification. Although many of the
features in the 4-6 keV X-ray continuum correspond to those in the radio, there
is no obvious correlation between the relative brightness in these bands.
