Please place any data analysis products related to fitting N132D here, under the appropriate section for each instrument. Please date each entry so we have a log of submissions. JPEG and GIF images can be displayed inline, which other files (PDF, PS, PHA files, event lists) should be included as attachments with a link to the file.

Chandra ACIS

 0.35-8.0 keV image from an 89 ks ACIS-S3 observation with the proposed extraction region overlaid.  There are about 2.5 million total counts from the SNR in this data set.

 Chandra image from a larger region that has been smoothed and contrast enhanced with the XIS extraction region overlaid to determine if there are any bright sources in the XIS extraction region:
Fit to the ACIS spectrum with the ESAC version 1.0 model for the 2.0-10.0 keV range.

Fit with the ESAC version v1.0 model in the 2.0-4.0 kV range looking for any missing lines, there do not appear to be any line features that the ACIS spectrum would require:

Suzaku XIS

Suzaku/XIS1 full-band image with extraction region in magenta (left) compared to ACIS image and extraction region in green (right).

Suzaku/XIS spectra (black=XIS1, red=XIS0, green=XIS3) from 2010-07-27, with E212_v1.0_20110439.xcm model folded through. A constant normalization factor was allowed to vary for each XIS, but everything else was fixed. Norms are 1.27, 1.31, 1.28 (so ~30% larger than XMM model).
