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 paper presents the second data release of the SRG/eROSITA all‑sky survey, providing catalogues of nearly two million X‑ray sources (point‑like and extended) from the first thre…
What's Missing in AGN Feedback? Lessons learnt from Magneticum, IllustrisTNG and Simba
D. T. Mazengo, P. Popesso, I. Marini +20
Accurately balancing gas reservoirs, star formation, and feedback across cosmic time remains a central challenge for galaxy formation models in modern hydrodynamical simulations. W…
X-ray luminous late-type giants: an overlooked population contributing to the Galactic ridge iron line emission
Tong Bao, Gabriele Ponti, Xiao-jie Xu +8
The origin of the highly ionized iron emission (Fe XXV at ) characterizing the Galactic ridge X-ray emission (GRXE) remains a fundamental puzzle in high-energy a…
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…
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-…
