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…

eROSITA X-ray Analysis of the PeVatron Candidate Westerlund 1

Konstantin Haubner, Manami Sasaki, Alison Mitchell +7

It is unclear which fraction of cosmic rays above an energy of 1 PeV is accelerated by the observed Galactic PeVatron population. These sources' gamma-ray data is typically degener…

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…

A magnetised Galactic halo from inner Galaxy outflows

He-Shou Zhang, Gabriele Ponti, Ettore Carretti +12

Magnetic halos of galaxies are crucial for understanding galaxy evolution, galactic-scale outflows, and feedback from star formation activity. Identifying the magnetised halo of th…

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…

The eROSITA Upper Limits: Description and access to the data

D. Tubín-Arenas, M. Krumpe, G. Lamer +13

The soft X-ray instrument eROSITA on board the Spectrum-Roentgen-Gamma (SRG) observatory has successfully completed four of the eight planned all-sky surveys, detecting almost one…
