An XMM-Newton view of M101 - II. Global X-ray source properties. Jenkins L.P., Roberts T.P., Warwick R.S., Kilgard R.E., Ward M.J. <Mon. Not. R. Astron. Soc., 357, 401-419 (2005)> =2005MNRAS.357..401J
ADC_Keywords: X-ray sources ; Cross identifications Keywords: galaxies: individual: M101 - galaxies: spiral - X-rays: binaries - X-rays: galaxies Abstract: We present the global X-ray properties of the point source population in the grand-design spiral galaxy M101, as seen with XMM-Newton. 108 X-ray sources are detected within the D25 ellipse of M101, of which ∼24 are estimated to be background galaxies. Multiwavelength cross-correlations show that 20 sources are coincident with H II regions and/or supernova remnants (SNRs), seven have identified/candidate background galaxy counterparts, six are coincident with foreground stars and one has a radio counterpart. Description: M101 was observed with XMM-Newton for 42.8ks on 2002 June 4 (Obs ID 0104260101). The EPIC MOS-1, MOS-2 and PN cameras were operated with medium filters in 'Prime Full Window' mode, which utilizes the full ∼30-arcmin field of view of XMM-Newton, covering the entire D25 ellipse of M101.
