X-ray sources in NGC 5866
Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)
S0 galaxies are often thought to be passively evolved from spirals after star formation is quenched.
Description
To explore what is actually occurring in such galaxies, we present a multi-wavelength case study of NGC 5866 - a nearby edge-on S0 galaxy in a relatively isolated environment. This study shows strong evidence for dynamic activities in the interstellar medium, which are most likely driven by supernova explosions in the galactic disk and bulge.
Understanding these activities can have strong implications for studying the evolution of such galaxies. We utilize Chandra, Hubble Space Telescope, and Spitzer data as well as ground-based observations to characterize the content, structure, and physical state of the medium and its interplay with the stellar component in NGC 5866. We reveal the presence of diffuse X-ray-emitting hot gas, which extends as far as 3.5kpc away from the galactic plane and can be heated easily by Type Ia SNe in the bulge.
