英文摘要 | We present an analysis of the diffuse soft X-ray emission from the nuclear region of M51 combining both XMM-Newton RGS and Chandra data. Most of the RGS spectrum of M51 can be fitted with a thermal model with a temperature of similar to 0.5 keV except for the 0 VII triplet, which is forbidden-line dominated. The Fe L-shell lines peak around the southern cloud, where the 0 VIII and N vu Ly alpha lines also peak. In contrast, the peak of the 0 vu forbidden line is about 10 '' offset from that of the other lines, indicating that it is from a spatially distinct component. The spatial distribution of the O VII triplet mapped by the Chandra data shows that most of the O VII triplet flux is located at faint regions near edges, instead of the southern cloud where other lines peak. This distribution of the 0 VII triplet is inconsistent with the photoionization model. Other mechanisms that could produce the anomalous O VII triplet, including a recombining plasma and charge exchange X-ray emission, are discussed. |
