On the baryon budget in the X-ray-emitting circumgalactic medium of Milky Way-mass galaxies

Yi Zhang, Soumya Shreeram, Gabriele Ponti +6

Recent observations with SRG/eROSITA have revealed the average X-ray surface brightness profile of the X-ray-emitting circumgalactic medium (CGM) around Milky Way (MW)-mass galaxie…

Impact of the large-scale cosmic web on the X-ray emitting circumgalactic medium

Soumya Shreeram, Daniela Galárraga-Espinosa, Johan Comparat +9

The hot circumgalactic medium (CGM), probed by X-ray observations, plays a central role in understanding gas flows that drive a galaxy's evolution. While CGM properties have been w…

The Average Soft X-ray Spectra of eROSITA Active Galactic Nuclei

Shi-Jiang Chen, Johannes Buchner, Teng Liu +16

Context. AGNs are strong X-ray emitters shaped by disk-corona interactions. The soft excess (0.5-2.0 keV) reveals key information about the "warm corona" bridging the disk and hot…

The hot circumgalactic medium in stacked X-rays: observations vs simulations

Skylar Grayson, Evan Scannapieco, Johan Comparat +5

Current cosmological simulations rely on active galactic nuclei (AGN) feedback to quench star formation and match observed stellar mass distributions, but models for AGN feedback a…

Introducing the Descriptive Parametric Model: Gaseous Profiles for Galaxies, Groups, and Clusters

Benjamin D. Oppenheimer, G. Mark Voit, Yannick M. Bahé +14

We develop and present the Descriptive Parametric Model (DPM), a tool for generating profiles of gaseous halos (pressure, electron density, and metallicity) as functions of radius,…

Cross-correlation between soft X-rays and galaxies A new benchmark for galaxy evolution models

Johan Comparat, Andrea Merloni, Gabriele Ponti +11

This article presents the construction and validation of complete stellar mass-selected, volume-limited galaxy samples using the Legacy Survey (data release 10) galaxy catalogs, co…

Retrieving the hot circumgalactic medium physics from the X-ray radial profile from eROSITA with an IlustrisTNG-based forward model

Soumya Shreeram, Johan Comparat, Andrea Merloni +9

Recent eROSITA measurements of the radial profiles of the hot CGM in the Milky-Way stellar mass (MW-mass) regime provide us with a new benchmark to constrain the hot gas around MW-…
