XMM observations of Fornax A (NGC 1316)

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

An XMM-Newton observation of the east radio lobe of the nearby radio galaxy Fornax A is reported.

Description

The diffuse hard X-ray emission associated with the east lobe, which was initially discovered by ASCA and ROSAT, is confirmed with significant signal statistics, after strictly removing 59 sources detected within the MOS field of view. Its X-ray spectrum is described by a single power-law model, which is absorbed by a medium with a column density consistent with that toward the object.
