ASCA observation of Henize 2-10
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 25 May 2016
Abstract
We present results of X-ray spectroscopy of the prototypical Wolf-Rayet galaxy Henize 2–10 with ASCA. We find that the X-ray spectrum is best described by a model with soft (kT ≃ 0.7 keV) and hard (kT ≃ 3.9 keV) components. The soft component is attributed to the hot gas associated with the superwind, and the hard component with a collection of the young sources (young SNRs and HMXBs) associated with the starburst.
