Scientific paper

The X-ray spectra of Seyfert 2 galaxies are rich in discrete spectral features produced in a wide variety of physical conditions. Reprocessed emission may originate from the active nucleus while the host galaxy may emit thermal emission from starburst regions that are structurally decoupled from nuclear activity. We propose to observe NGC 4507 with the Chandra HETGS to obtain a well-exposed, spatially resolved, high resolution spectrum. We will be able to distinguish the underlying emission mechanisms and their relative flux contributions to constrain the physical conditions and structure of the circumnuclear environment.
