"Using data from the eROSITA All-Sky Survey, astronomers have created a 3D map of the low-density bubble of X-ray-emitting, million-degree hot gas that surrounds the solar system. The investigation has revealed a large-scale temperature gradient within this bubble, called the Local Hot Bubble (LHB), meaning it contains both hot and cold spots. The team suspects that this temperature gradient may have been caused by exploding massive stars detonating in supernovas, causing the bubble to be reheated. This reheating would cause the pocket of low-density gas to expand. The researchers also found what seems to be an 'INTERSTELLAR TUNNEL,' a channel between stars directed towards the constellation Centaurus. This tunnel may link the solar system's home bubble with a neighboring superbubble and could have been carved out by erupting young stars and powerful and high-speed stellar winds." https://www.space.com/milky-way-hot-cold-local-bubble-supernovas ↗️
"Our Solar System dwells in a low-density environment called the Local Hot Bubble (LHB), filled by a tenuous, million-degree hot gas emitting dominantly in soft X-rays. A team led by scientists at the Max Planck Institute for Extraterrestrial Physics (MPE) used the eROSITA All-Sky Survey data and found a large-scale temperature gradient in this bubble, possibly linked with past supernova explosions that expanded and reheated the bubble. The wealth of the eROSITA data also allowed the team to create a new 3D model of the hot gas in the solar neighbourhood. The highlight of this work features the discovery of a NEW INTERSTELLAR TUNNEL towards the constellation Centaurus, potentially joining our LHB with a neighbouring superbubble." https://www.mpe.mpg.de/8038794/news20241029 ↗️
