Discovery of Kiloparsec-scale Semirelativistic Fe Kα Complex Emission in NGC 5728

We present Chandra ACIS-S imaging spectroscopy results of the extended (1.″5–8″, 300–1600 pc) hard X-ray emission of NGC 5728, the host galaxy of a Compton-thick active galactic nucleus. We find spectrally and spatially resolved features in the Fe K α complex (5.0–7.5 keV) redward and blueward of th...
