X-rays from Galaxies

Abstract

This is a paper to appear as a book chapter in The Chandra X-ray Observatory: Exploring the high energy universe, Ed B Wilkes and W Tucker (Bristol: IOP Publishing Ltd) AAS-IOP ebooks It reviews the results of the observations of galaxies with the Chandra X-ray Observatory to-date, including: populations of X-ray binaries and their evolution; the hot gaseous component; hidden AGNs, and AGN-ISM interaction in nearby galaxies.
