The hard X-ray (> 15 keV) emission is found to be extended over a region of 12'-15' radius, corresponding to a size of about 1.0--1.3 pc for a source distance of 290 pc. A single power law does not give an acceptable fit while a broken power law or a log-parabolic law nicely fit the data. The former spectral model has the photon index Gamma_1 = 1.66 +/- 0.01 for energies lower than the break value equal to 12.5 keV and the index Gamma_2 = 2.01 +/- 0.05 up to about 2"},"claims":{"count":0,"items":[],"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"source":{"id":"astro-ph/0503261","kind":"arxiv","version":1},"verdict":{"id":null,"model_set":{},"created_at":null,"strongest_claim":"","one_line_summary":"","pipeline_version":null,"weakest_assumption":"","pith_extraction_headline":""},"references":{"count":0,"sample":[],"resolved_work":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57","internal_anchors":0},"formal_canon":{"evidence_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"author_claims":{"count":0,"strong_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"builder_version":"pith-number-builder-2026-05-17-v1"}
