Chandra X-Ray Observatory Images of the NGC 4410 Galaxy Group


The smoothed 0.3 - 8 keV map of the inner portion of the NGC 4410 group from the Chandra X-ray Telescope (color), after it has been divided by a smoothed weighted exposure map. The yellow/white regions are brightest in X-rays, the red fainter, and the blue faintest. The black region outside of the blue rectangular area was not observed by Chandra. The contours are from the optical Digitized Sky Survey.


The smoothed Chandra 0.3 - 1 keV map of the inner portion of the NGC 4410 group (color), after it has been divided by a smoothed 0.8 keV monochromatic exposure map. The contours are from the optical Digitized Sky Survey.


The 1 - 2.5 keV map, after it has been divided by a smoothed 1.5 keV monochromatic exposure map. The contours are from the optical Digitized Sky Survey.


The smoothed Chandra 2.5 - 8 keV map of the inner portion of the NGC 4410 group (color), after it has been divided by a smoothed 3 keV monochromatic exposure map. The contours are from the optical Digitized Sky Survey.
