Feature dist from core (arcsec) size (asec) f_x(0.2-6keV) (E-13cgs) alpha Detector Comments Origin HST-1 0.8 - 7.3 - ACIS-S variable deh knot D 2.6 - 5.1 - ACIS-S deh knot E 6.0 - 2.2 - ACIS-S deh knot F 8.3 - 0.8 - ACIS-S deh knot A 12.3 - 10. - ACIS-S deh knot B 14.2 - 1.8 - ACIS-S deh Comments: harris@cfa.harvard.edu tlm=2002Aug09 The core and HST-1 (at least) are variable. This leads to some confusion as to the core location, and hence when measuring the distance from the core to various features. It is also the case that different authors obtain different features and distances. Fluxes are indicative, as measured on the 2000Jul image. (DEH) Follow this link to the DRAGN page for M87.
