We present an analysis of a pair of Suzaku spectra of the soft X-ray background (SXRB), obtained from pointings on and off a nearby shadowing filament in the southern Galactic hemisphere. Because of the different Galactic column densities…

We present results from a sample of XMM-Newton and Suzaku observations of interstellar clouds that cast shadows in the soft X-ray background (SXRB) - the first uniform analysis of such a sample from these missions. By fitting to the on- and…

Shadow observations provide a powerful tool to separate foreground components of the soft diffuse X-ray background (SDXB) from the background components. Such observations have now established that the ``local'' foreground is made of the…

We analyzed two XMM-Newton observations in the direction of the high density, high latitude, neutral hydrogen cloud MBM20 and of a nearby low density region that we called the Eridanus hole. The cloud MBM20 is at a distance evaluated…

Suzaku observed the molecular cloud MBM12 and a blank field less than 3 degrees away to separate the local and distant components of the diffuse soft X-ray background. Towards MBM12, a local (D< 275 pc) O VII emission line was clearly…

We describe a method for identifying XMM-Newton observations that have been affected by Solar Wind Charge Exchange (SWCX) emission and present preliminary results of previously unidentified cases of such emission within the XMM-Newton…

We study the 0.57 keV (O VII triplet) and 0.65 keV (O VIII) diffuse emission generated by charge transfer collisions between solar wind (SW) oxygen ions and interstellar H and He neutral atoms in the inner Heliosphere. These lines which…

Observations of interstellar clouds that cast shadows in the soft X-ray background can be used to separate the background Galactic halo emission from the local emission due to solar wind charge exchange (SWCX) and/or the Local Bubble (LB).…

A model of geocoronal solar wind charge exchange (SWCX) emission was built and compared to five Suzaku detections of bright geocoronal SWCX events. An exospheric neutral hydrogen distribution model, charge exchange cross sections, solar…

The major sources of the Soft X-ray Background (SXRB), besides distinct structures as supernovae and superbubbles (e.g. Loop I), are: (i) an absorbed extragalactic emission following a power law, (ii) an absorbed thermal component ~2x10^6…

We present the analysis of an observation by XMM-Newton that exhibits strongly variable, low-energy diffuse X-ray line emission. We reason that this emission is due to localised solar wind charge exchange (SWCX), originating from a passing…

We have analyzed a pair of Suzaku XIS1 spectra of the soft X-ray background, obtained by observing towards and to the side of a nearby (d = 230 pc) absorbing filament in the southern Galactic hemisphere. We fit multicomponent spectral…

We present an XMM-Newton spectrum of diffuse X-ray emission from within the solar system. The spectrum is dominated by probable C VI lines at 0.37 keV and 0.46 keV, an O VII line at 0.56 keV, O VIII lines at 0.65 keV and ~0.8 keV, Ne IX…

We wished to analyse a sample of observations from the XMM-Newton Science Archive to search for evidence of exospheric solar wind charge exchange (SWCX) emission. We analysed 3012 observations up to and including revolution 1773. The method…

The ubiquitous diffuse soft (1/4 keV) X-ray background was one of the earliest discoveries of X-ray astronomy. At least some of the emission may arise from charge exchange between solar wind ions and neutral atoms in the heliosphere, but no…

Shadow observations are the only way to observe emission from the galactic halo (GH) and/or the circumgalactic medium (CGM) free of any foreground contamination from local hot bubble (LHB) and solar wind charge exchange (SWCX). We analyzed…

Solar wind charged particles interact with diffuse gas within the heliosphere, producing soft X-rays. This solar wind charge exchange (SWCX) process produces foreground emission that complicates interpretation of X-ray observations. In this…

Solar Wind Charge-Exchange (SWCX) emission is present in every X-ray observation of an astrophysical object. The emission is problematic when one cannot remove the foreground by the simultaneous measurement of a nearby field. SWCX emission…

We present measurements of the soft X-ray background emission for 130 Suzaku observations at $75^\circ<l < 285^\circ$ and $|b|>15^\circ$ obtained from 2005 to 2015, covering nearly one solar cycle. In addition to the standard soft X-ray…

Observations of the hot X-ray emitting interstellar medium in the Milky Way are important for studying the stellar feedback and understanding the formation and evolution of galaxies. We present measurements of the soft X-ray background…
