Summary
Researchers have identified several magnetized structures extending far above and below the galactic plane. The filaments are related to the hot winds with a temperature of 3.5 million Kelvin, ejected from the galactic Disk and powered by star-forming regions.
The research team used a comprehensive multi-wavelength survey, covering frequencies from radio to gamma-rays, to analyze these structures. It is the first observational evidence linking the Milky Way's star-forming ring at the end of the galactic bar with the formation of large-scale galactic outflows.
The study opens up new frontiers in our understanding of the galactic halo. It is the first comprehensive multi-wavelength study for the eROSITA Bubbles since their discovery in 2020.
