11.12. X-ray emission from LINERs observed with ASCA
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 25 May 2016
Abstract
We present X-ray observations of LINERs with ASCA. We detected a hard point-like source of X-ray luminosity of 1040–1041 erg s−1 at the nucleus. Their hard X-ray continuum is well represented by power-law of photon index ~ 1.8. The X-ray to Hα luminosity ratio LX/LHα is quite similar to Seyfert galaxies and strongly support the presence of low luminosity AGNs.
