It is one of the few galaxies outside of the Milky Way that is visible to the naked eye. This is the sharpest visible-light image ever made of the nucleus of an external galaxy. http://ecuip-xtf.lib.uchicago.edu/xtf/view?docId=grxr/M31-center-HST/M31-center-HST.dc.xml Thu, 01 Jan 1970 12:00:00 GMT Cosmic Origins Spectrograph Average Spectrum of 22 AGNs (Active Galactic Nuclei). http://ecuip-xtf.lib.uchicago.edu/xtf/view?docId=grxr/apj430279f6_hr/apj430279f6_hr.dc.xml The spectra were shifted to appear as if they were not redshifted before being averaged. All the objects have spectra that look like quasi-stellar objects, but some are of low enough luminosity that the host galaxy is visible and has a name. The main features of the spectrum are as follows: a purple/blue line drawn through the spectrum is the "continuum," mostly due to the AGN, a continuous glow caused by a very hot gas in a strong magnetic field; a red line represents the fitted spectrum of emission lines, thought to arise in a disk that surrounds the central black hole of the AGN. (These are most clear at the right end.) The ions that are seen in emission are labelled: N V, C IV, He II etc. The Roman numeral is the charge of the ion plus one: N V is four-times ionized oxygen, meaning that four electrons have been stripped off the atom. The ion has a net charge of positive four. The black line traces the actual data. Below about 950 Å, neutral hydrogen absorption lines from the intergalactic medium exist in ... http://ecuip-xtf.lib.uchicago.edu/xtf/view?docId=grxr/apj430279f6_hr/apj430279f6_hr.dc.xml Thu, 01 Jan 1970 12:00:00 GMT M100 Galactic Nucleus. http://ecuip-xtf.lib.uchicago.edu/xtf/view?docId=grxr/m100after/m100after.dc.xml This image was taken with Hubble's Wide Field and Planetary Camera 2, installed to correct Hubble's optics. The difference in clarity is dramatic and represents the realization of the anticipated quality of images from a space-based, optical telescope. http://ecuip-xtf.lib.uchicago.edu/xtf/view?docId=grxr/m100after/m100after.dc.xml Thu, 01 Jan 1970 12:00:00 GMT M100 Galactic Nucleus. http://ecuip-xtf.lib.uchicago.edu/xtf/view?docId=grxr/m100before/m100before.dc.xml This image was taken before the optics was fixed and demonstrates that the optical error generates images that are not much better than images taken with ground-based telescopes and were much less clear than expected. The picture is from the Wide Field and Planetary Camera 1. http://ecuip-xtf.lib.uchicago.edu/xtf/view?docId=grxr/m100before/m100before.dc.xml Thu, 01 Jan 1970 12:00:00 GMT
