Nested shells reveal the rejuvenation of the Orion-Eridanus superbubble

B. B. Ochsendorf, A. G. A. Brown, J. Bally +1

The Orion-Eridanus superbubble is the prototypical superbubble due to its proximity and evolutionary state. Here, we provide a synthesis of recent observational data from WISE and…
