The incidence of eROSITA X-ray AGN in the local Universe: from dwarf to massive galaxies

Z. Igo, A. Merloni, A. Georgakakis +22

Combining deep, wide-area X-ray surveys with multi-wavelength catalogues provides insights into rare, highly-accreting AGN and low-mass galaxies at low redshift, the latter potenti…

Extreme AGN feedback in the fossil galaxy group SDSSTG 4436

D. Eckert, F. Gastaldello, L. Lovisari +20

Supermassive black hole feedback is the currently favoured mechanism to regulate the star formation rate of galaxies and prevent the formation of ultra-massive galaxies ($M_\star>1…

The First SRG/eROSITA All-Sky Survey. Characterization of clusters of galaxies misclassified in the eRASS1 point source catalog

F. Balzer, E. Bulbul, M. Kluge +20

The detection of the extended X-ray-emission of the intracluster medium by the first SRG/eROSITA All-Sky Survey (eRASS1), combined with optical and near-infrared follow-up, resulte…

Quantifying Observational Projection Effects with a Simulation-based hot CGM model

Soumya Shreeram, Johan Comparat, Andrea Merloni +11

The hot phase of the circumgalactic medium (CGM) allows us to probe the inflow and outflow of gas within a galaxy, which is responsible for dictating the evolution of the galaxy. S…

O Corona, where art thou? eROSITA's view of UV-optical-IR variability-selected massive black holes in low-mass galaxies

R. Arcodia, A. Merloni, J. Comparat +16

Finding massive black holes (MBHs, ) in the nuclei of low-mass galaxies () is crucial to constrain seeding and…
