In less than 24 hours we'll be releasing all the Data from the First eROSITA all-sky survey, including the largest X-ray catalogue ever published. Several associated scientific papers will also be in the arXiv.org tomorrow. Watch this space! @MPE_Garching

Make space on your desks , in your travel bags or in your meeting schedules; get yourself a cup of tea, or coffee, pen or pencil at hand. We've got some good reads for you today! eROSITA arXiv.org #XrayAstronomy #DR1Splash

Two hours to go until eROSITA data gets released. More than 900,000 X-ray sources have been identified. More than by all other X-ray telescopes combined. Accompanying paper is on astro-ph: arxiv.org/abs/2401.17274 UHH - MIN-Fakultät

An X-ray image of half the #universe: the first publication of the eROSITA sky-survey data release makes public the largest ever catalogue of high-energy cosmic sources 😲 mpg.de/21468451/0126-… eROSITA @MPE_Garching

🥳Ta-dah! The eROSITA consortium has unleashed the colossal first #eROSITA #AllSkySurvey #eRASS1 data release #eROSITAdr1 with a record-breaking 900,000 cosmic sources & ~ 50 scientific publications. Get ready for a cosmic revolution and dive in➡️1/9 mpe.mpg.de/7989698/news20…

Many scientists & researcher from all these institutes have worked with #eROSITA. HERE you can learn more about them! How they became astrophysicists, what their research is focused on, what they are contributing to the #eROSITAdr1 and much more! 8/9 mpe.mpg.de/7986842/erosit…

🔊Out now: first eROSITA All-Sky Survey data release, the largest X-ray catalogue ever published, and a series of scientific papers describing new results from the German #eROSITA consortium @MPE_Garching AIP @[email protected] Dr. Karl Remeis-Observatory Universität Tübingen mpe.mpg.de/7989698/news20…

It's new paper day!! Along with a HUGE splash of eROSITA papers from @MPE_Garching and beyond, I am very excited to have submitted my paper on the eROSITA "hard" X-ray selected sample: arxiv.org/abs/2401.17306 which is now released! #eROSITAdr1

In this paper, we take the 5466 X-ray sources which are detected in the hard (2.3-5keV) band (shown below), and attempt to classify them/figure out which astronomical object the X-rays are coming from. Thanks to eROSITA's very high positional accuracy, we can readily do this!

Finally, for today’s eROSITA papers, our J. Schmitt found ''Forbidden" stars in the eROSITA all-sky survey: X-ray emission from very late-type giants arxiv.org/abs/2401.17273

Exciting news!📚Our latest paper has landed on arXiv!🚀 We investigated the impact of AGN feedback on the hot gas in galaxy groups by analyzing eROSITA observations of the groups detected in eROSITA's first All-Sky Survey (eRASS1) observations. arxiv.org/abs/2401.17276

a landmark (skymark?) day in X-ray astronomy

eROSITA #eRASS1 data and papers are out. A few glasses were raised at MPE. Today you should ask what X-ray astronomy can do for you, and *also* ask what you can do for X-ray astronomy! #DR1Splash The X-ray sky opens to the world mpe.mpg.de/7989698/news20…

📢New paper!📢 We published the discovery, with eROSITA, of two more galaxies showing the repeated X-ray flares called quasi-periodic eruptions (QPEs). So.. what’s new on QPEs? A 🧵 arxiv.org/abs/2401.17275

In the next weeks, we will deepdive into some publications which had been published during eROSITA first Data Release #eROSITAdr1. #MPE scientist Chandreyee Maitra leads data processing of #eROSITA and is interested in binary stellar systems in the Large Magellanic Cloud 1/4

Only 1⃣ day until the #CosmologySplash! This video by Ang Liu shows the large-scale structure in the nearby Universe revealed by #superclusters detected in the first eROSITA #AllSkySurvey #eRASS1, and how it looks if compared with the distribution of galaxies (grey dots).1/2

Big eROSITA news today: The first catalog of galaxy clusters and groups in the Western Galactic Hemisphere led by @dresrabulbul with M. Brüggen and others. Contains 12247 optically confirmed galaxy groups and clusters with 8361 new discoveries.

🌹Roses are red, don't put them in trash. Happy #ValentinesDay❤️everyone, here comes the #CosmologySplash! Check out the stunning results of the #eROSITA #Cluster and #Cosmology group of the first eROSITA #AllSkySurvey #eRASS1! ➡️mpe.mpg.de/7999333/news24… #eROSITAdr1 #MPE 1/2
