The SRG/eROSITA All-Sky Survey: Early dark energy and Hubble constant from the cluster mass function

J. Strunk, E. Artis, E. Bulbul +23

The evolution of the mass function of massive galaxy clusters is a well-established probe of cosmology. Using the eROSITA X-ray instrument on board the Spectrum Roentgen Gamma (SRG…

Ultraluminous X-ray sources in the first eROSITA survey I. Candidate catalogs

P. Weber, T. P. Roberts, S. Hämmerich +28

Ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs) are luminous non-nuclear X-ray point sources embedded in galaxies. Their luminosities exceeding 10^39 erg/s potentially require sub-Eddington acc…

Thermal or Non-thermal? Diffuse emission in the infall region of stacked galaxy groups

E. Bulbul, X. Zhang, Z. Ding +16

The faint infall regions surrounding the virial radius of galaxy groups remain largely unexplored due to their low X-ray surface brightness. Using the large statistical power of SR…

What's Missing in AGN Feedback? Lessons learnt from Magneticum, IllustrisTNG and Simba

D. T. Mazengo, P. Popesso, I. Marini +20

Accurately balancing gas reservoirs, star formation, and feedback across cosmic time remains a central challenge for galaxy formation models in modern hydrodynamical simulations. W…

Spatially resolved optical and mid-infrared spectroscopy of SDSS1335+0728: implications for the origin of the Ansky event

P. Sánchez-Sáez, M. Masterson, L. Hernández-García +25

The galaxy SDSS1335+0728 brightened abruptly in December 2019 (the Ansky event) and has since been confirmed as the host of extreme X-ray quasi-periodic eruptions (QPEs) of debated…

Simulation-Based Inference for Cluster Cosmology with Set-Based Neural Network Architectures

S. Zelmer, E. Bulbul, K. Lehman +18

The unprecedented statistical power of galaxy cluster catalogs from the SRG (Spectrum Roentgen Gamma)/eROSITA All-Sky Survey provides a unique opportunity to place stringent constr…

Investigating central star formation in local AGN host galaxies: is there tension between coeval growth and AGN feedback?

Q. Ni, K. Nandra, A. Merloni +3

It has been argued that supermassive black holes (BHs) coevolve with the central parts of galaxies, as a result of the common fuel for both the BH and star formation in the galaxy…

The SRG/eROSITA diffuse soft X-ray background II. spectra and morphology of the eROSITA bubbles in the western Galactic hemisphere

Michael C. H. Yeung, Martin G. F. Mayer, Andy Strong +15

The eROSITA bubbles (eRObub) were discovered in 2020 in the first SRG/eROSITA All-Sky Survey, and are among the most extended structures in the X-ray sky. Using eROSITA all-sky map…

Discovery of Quasar Variability and Early Accretion Disk Signatures at Cosmic Dawn

Gene C. K. Leung, Anna-Christina Eilers, Christos Panagiotou +12

In the nearby universe, quasars are well known to exhibit variability in their brightness over time, offering a powerful tool to probe the physics of accretion onto the SMBH and di…

Robust AGN and host-galaxy decomposition in optical spectral fitting

C. Aydar, A. Merloni, G. Zeltyn +24

Unraveling the growth of supermassive black holes and their connection to host galaxies requires disentangling the Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) emission from that of the stellar po…

Even a precessing clock is right twice per orbit -- The super-periods of eRO-QPE2 and challenges for quasi-periodic eruption orbital models

R. Arcodia, G. Miniutti, J. Chakraborty +25

We present OC (``observed minus calculated'') timing analysis of the quasi-periodic eruption (QPE) source eRO-QPE2 with a multi-mission X-ray campaign, which includes 32 observe…

The average X-ray spectrum of the volume-complete M-, F-, G-, and K-type star sample within 10 pc of the Sun

Xueying Zheng, Gabriele Ponti, Nicola Locatelli +15

F, G, K and M type stars are the most abundant stellar population in the Milky Way and are expected to contribute to its diffuse X-ray emission. Yet their intrinsic average X-ray s…

BLAZ4R and the eROSITA view of z>4 blazars

Tullia Sbarrato, Silvia Belladitta, Julien Wolf +8

We present BLAZ4R, the first living catalog of confirmed blazars, with a focus on the contribution of eROSITA, on board of the Spectrum Roentgen Gamma (SRG) spacecraft. Blaza…

A large population of over-massive black hole quasars at z=0.3-0.8 revealed by eROSITA

Johannes Buchner, Isabelle Gauger, Qiaoya Wu +14

In most galaxies, the central black hole accounts for no more than a percent of the total mass in stars. Recently, however, extremely over-massive black holes with ratios of 10% ha…

Supermassive Black Hole Winds in X-rays: SUBWAYS V. Properties of hot coronae in quasars at intermediate redshift

S. Peluso, G. Lanzuisi, A. Comastri +25

We present the X-ray analysis of coronal properties in a statistically representative sample of 23 mostly radio-quiet AGN from the SUBWAYS campaign (SUpermassive Black holes Winds…

Low-mass stars dominate the hot (0.7 keV) Galactic X-ray emission

G. Ponti, M. C. H. Yeung, G. Stel +12

The circumgalactic medium (CGM) of the Milky Way is composed of a tenuous atmosphere filled with multi-phase plasma, including a warm-hot virialised component. Recent studies sugge…
