Abstract

We built new sample of 315 SDSS galaxies which were detected as X-ray sources in 2XMM catalog. On the basis of distribution of relative intensities of emission lines NII [6583] and OIII [5007] we divided objects of the sample into starburst galaxies and galaxies with active nuclei. Also we found distributions of X-ray luminosities of these galaxies.

Keywords: X-ray emission of galaxies; intensity of emission lines
