We present a study of the diffuse X-ray emission from superbubbles N 70 (DEM L301) and N 185 (DEM L25) located in the Large Magellanic Cloud, based on data from the XMM-Newton Satellite. We obtained spectra and images of these objects in…
We present an analysis of XMM-Newton observations of the superbubble 30 Dor C and compare the results with the predictions from the standard wind-blown bubble model. We find that the observed X-ray spectra cannot be fitted satisfactorily…
Observations with space-borne X-ray telescopes revealed the existence of soft, diffuse X-ray emission from the inner regions of planetary nebulae. Although the existing images support the idea that this emission arises from the hot shocked…
The emission nebula M17 contains a young ~1 Myr-old open cluster; the winds from the OB stars of this cluster have blown a superbubble around the cluster. ROSAT observations of M17 detected diffuse X-ray emission peaking at the cluster and…
In this work, we present a comprehensive X-ray picture of the interaction between a super star cluster and the ISM. In order to do that, we compare and combine the X-ray emission from the superwind driven by the cluster with the emission…
Fast stellar winds can sweep up ambient media and form bubbles. The evolution of a bubble is largely controlled by the content and physical conditions of the shocked fast wind in its interior. This hot gas was not clearly observed until the…
The X-ray emission properties from the hot thermalized plasma that results from the collisions of individual stellar winds and supernovae ejecta within rich and compact star clusters are discussed. We propose a simple analytical way of…
The Bubble Nebula (or NGC 7635) is a parsec-scale seemingly spherical wind-blown bubble around the relatively unevolved O star BD+60$^\circ$2522. The small dynamical age of the nebula and significant space velocity of the star suggest that…
The Local Bubble (LB) is a hot, low-density cavity in the solar neighborhood, inside which the Solar System is currently located. The X-ray emission from such bubbles is strongly governed by the gas density, temperature, and the effects of…
We present the results of X-ray spectral analysis of the superbubble around the OB association LH9 in the H II complex N11 in the Large Magellanic Cloud. Using observations from Suzaku, we have modeled the X-ray emission over the energy…

Massive young star clusters contain dozens or hundreds of massive stars that inject mechanical energy in the form of winds and supernova explosions, producing an outflow which expands into their surrounding medium, shocking it and forming…
