X-ray-selected normal galaxies
Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)
In this paper we estimate the local (z<0.22) X-ray luminosity function of 'normal' galaxies derived from the XMM-Newton Needles in the Haystack Survey.
Description
This is an on-going project that aims to identify X-ray-selected normal galaxies (i.e. non-AGN dominated) in the local Universe. We are using a total of 70 XMM-Newton fields covering an area of 11deg^2^ which overlap with the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 2.
Normal galaxies are selected on the basis of their resolved optical light profile, their low X-ray-to-optical flux ratio [log(fx/fo)<-2] and soft X-ray colours. We find a total of 28 candidate normal galaxies to the 0.58keV band flux limit of 2x10^-15^erg/cm2/s. Optical spectra are available for most sources in our sample (82 per cent).

These provide additional evidence that our sources are bona fide normal galaxies with X-ray emission coming from diffuse hot gas emission and/or X-ray binaries rather than a supermassive black hole.
