Chandra X-ray sources in M101
Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)
A deep (98.2ks) Chandra Cycle 1 observation has revealed a wealth of discrete X-ray sources as well as diffuse emission in the nearby face-on spiral galaxy M101.
Description
From this rich data set we have created a catalog of the 110 sources from the S3 chip detected with a significance of greater than 3{sigma}. This detection threshold corresponds to a flux of ~10^-16^ergs/cm^2^/s and a luminosity of ~10^36^ergs/s for a distance to M101 of 7.2Mpc.
The sources display a distinct correlation with the spiral arms of M101 and include a variety of X-ray binaries, supersoft sources, supernova remnants, and other objects of which only ~27 are likely to be background sources.
