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…

The SRG/eROSITA All-Sky Survey DR2: Cumulative X-ray catalogues from the first three surveys and multi-wavelength counterparts in the western Galactic hemisphere

M. E. Ramos-Ceja, G. Lamer, M. Salvato +111

The eROSITA telescope array on board the Spektrum-Roentgen-Gamma (SRG) mission began its all-sky survey program in December 2019, scanning the sky at an approximately six-month cad…

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…

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…

Multiwavelength observations of a new black-widow millisecond pulsar PSR J1544-2555

Sergio Belmonte Diaz, Tinn Thongmeearkom, Adipol Phosrisom +20

We report the discovery of a new black-widow millisecond pulsar, PSR J1544-2555, associated with the Fermi-LAT source 4FGL J1544.2-2554. Optical, radio, and gamma-ray observations…

Evidence for protons accelerated and escaped from the Puppis A region using \textit{Fermi}-LAT observations

Roberta Giuffrida, Marianne Lemoine-Gourmard, Marco Miceli +7

Supernova remnants (SNRs) interacting with molecular clouds are interesting laboratories to study the acceleration of cosmic rays and their propagation in the dense ambient medium.…

Studying the multi-phase interstellar medium in the Large Magellanic Cloud with SRG/eROSITA -- I. Analysis of diffuse X-ray emission

Martin G. F. Mayer, Manami Sasaki, Frank Haberl +9

The Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), being a nearby and actively star-forming satellite galaxy of the Milky Way, is an ideal site to observe the multi-phase interstellar medium (ISM)…

The SRG/eROSITA diffuse soft X-ray background. I. The local hot bubble in the western Galactic hemisphere

Michael C. H. Yeung, Gabriele Ponti, Michael J. Freyberg +10

The SRG/eROSITA All-Sky Surveys (eRASSs) combine the advantages of complete sky coverage and the energy resolution provided by the charge couple device and offer the most holistic…

Morphological Evidence for the eROSITA Bubbles Being Giant and Distant Structures

Teng Liu, Andrea Merloni, Jeremy Sanders +13

There are two contradictory views of the eROSITA bubbles: either a 10 kpc-scale pair of giant bubbles blown by the Galactic center (GC), or a 100 pc-scale local structure coinciden…

Searching for X-ray counterparts of unassociated Fermi-LAT sources and rotation-powered pulsars with SRG/eROSITA

Martin G. F. Mayer, Werner Becker

The latest source catalog of the Fermi-LAT telescope contains more than 7000 -ray sources at GeV energies, with the two dominant source classes thought to be blazars and rotatio…

SRG/eROSITA and XMM-Newton observations of Vela Jr

Francesco Camilloni, Werner Becker, Peter Predehl +4

The Vela supernova remnant complex is a region containing at least three supernova remnants: Vela, Puppis A, and Vela Jr. With the launch of the spectro-imaging X-ray telescope eRO…
