Shaping the diffuse X-ray sky: Structure, Variability and Visibility
Philipp Girichidis, Erika Rea, Ralf S. Klessen +5
The Local Bubble (LB) is a hot, low-density cavity in the solar neighborhood, inside which the Solar System is currently located. The X-ray emission from such bubbles is strongly g…
The late Miocene Be anomaly and the possibility of a supernova
E. Maconi, J. Alves, J. GroÃschedl +3
Recent measurements of cosmogenic Be in deep-ocean ferromanganese crusts from the Central and Northern Pacific have revealed an anomalous concentration between 11.5 and 9.0…
Modeling Local Bubble analogs II: Synthetic Faraday rotation maps
Efrem Maconi, Stefan Reissl, Juan D. Soler +4
Faraday rotation describes the change of the linear polarization angle of radiation passing through a magnetized plasma and it is quantified by the rotation measure (RM), which is…
The Solar System's passage through the Radcliffe wave during the middle Miocene
E. Maconi, J. Alves, C. Swiggum +14
Context. As the Solar System orbits the Milky Way, it encounters various Galactic environments, including dense regions of the interstellar medium (ISM). These encounters can compr…
