| Abstract: | Mid-infrared photometry of the hosts of Narrow-Line X-ray Galaxies at 6μm and 12μm has been attempted with ISOCAM. No conclusive detections have been made. This implies that these are quiescent objects with little or no active star-formation. Neither X-ray binaries nor starburst-driven superwinds are consistent explanations for the X-ray emission in these objects. We conclude that these NLXGs are predominantly AGN-powered. |
