Re:NGC 3507
This galaxy (L2, SBb) has two point sources in its central kiloparsec: one very
faint (14 counts) close to the edge of the region and a central extended source
embedded in a bright patch of diffuse emission. The central source had only 187
counts, which did not allow us to test a wide variety of spectral models.
Instead we estimated its luminosity by fitting a simple MEKAL model (the photon
index of the best-fitting power-law model was unrealistic), and we find L_0.5-10
keV = 1.2 x 10^39^ ergs s^-1^ after correcting for absorption. A weak, extended
radio source (S_{nu}_ = 16 mJy) is detected at 1.45 GHz (Condon 1987), which
suggests that this object is not an LLAGN. It could be a collection of supernova
remnants producing a superbubble around it seen as the X-ray diffuse emission
and radio extended source. The fact that the data could not be fitted with a
realistic power-law index strengthens this idea. This indicates that the X-ray
emission of this LINER is powered by stellar processes. This result is
consistent with the estimate of the age of the stellar population, which
indicates the presence of a young stellar component (10^6^ yr; Gonzalez Delgado
et al. 2004). -

Re:NGC 3507
NGC 3507 (UGC 6123). No hard nuclear point source was detected for this galaxy
(Fig. 5). The only previously published X-ray study is based on observations
obtained with ASCA: Terashima et al. (2002) get {GAMMA} = 2.3 and N_H_ = 1.0
x 10^22^ cm^-2^, but conclude that a power-law model ({GAMMA} = 1.7)
describes the spectrum well. -

Re:NGC 3507
NGC 3507.---SBb: Nuclear point source embedded in elliptical bulge.
The bulge is threaded by a prominent bar. Grand-design two-armed
spiral pattern, with the arms emerging at right angles to the ends of
the bar. The arms are well defined, and generally smooth, although
there are some knots in the inner arms. The arm emerging from the SE
end of the bar is more tightly wrapped than that emerging from the NW
end. The surface brightness of both arms drops abruptly after ~180deg.
The arms can be traced through another ~180deg before they fade into
the sky.
