Probing the hot X-ray corona around the massive spiral galaxy, NGC 6753, using deep XMM-Newton observations

X-ray emitting gaseous coronae around massive galaxies are a basic prediction of galaxy formation models. Although the coronae around spiral galaxies offer a fundamental test of these models, observational constraints on their characteristics are still scarce. While the presence of extended hot coro...
