Markarian 231, an ultraluminous infrared galaxy, hosts both a broad absorption line quasar and an active starburst, and both components contribute clearly to the spatial and spectral properties of the X-ray emission. In this poster, we present the results from analyzing 4 epochs of Chandra observations with a total exposure of 150 ks. These high quality data enable spectral, spatial, and timing analysis of both the nuclear and extended galaxy X-ray emission.
This project was supported by NASA through SAO grant GO3-4137A.
