Probing the All-sky Distribution of Soft X-ray Emission Associated with the Milky Way

Kazuki Ampuku, Ikuyuki Mitsuishi, Philip Kaaret +5

We present an all-sky analysis of soft X-ray emission associated with the Milky Way using HaloSat and ROSAT data, extending our previous study of five Galactic-plane regions to 330…

Widespread Detection of Two Components in the Hot Circumgalactic Medium of the Milky Way

Jesse Bluem, Philip Kaaret, K. D. Kuntz +6

Surrounding the Milky Way (MW) is the circumgalactic medium (CGM), an extended reservoir of hot gas that has significant implications for the evolution of the MW. We used the HaloS…

A disk-dominated and clumpy circumgalactic medium of the Milky Way seen in X-ray emission

P. Kaaret, D. Koutroumpa, K. D. Kuntz +7

The Milky Way galaxy is surrounded by a circumgalactic medium (CGM) that may play a key role in galaxy evolution as the source of gas for star formation and a repository of metals…

On the distance to the North Polar Spur and the local CO-H2 factor

R. Lallement, S. Snowden, K. D. Kuntz +4

Most models identify the X-ray bright North Polar Spur (NPS) with a hot interstellar (IS) bubble in the Sco-Cen star-forming region at 130 pc. An opposite view considers th…

Properties of the Diffuse X-ray Background toward MBM20 with Suzaku

A. Gupta, M. Galeazzi, D. Koutroumpa +2

We used Suzaku observations of the molecular cloud MBM20 and a low neutral hydrogen column density region nearby to separate and characterize the foreground and background diffuse…
