Description
The growth of galaxies in the local Universe critically depends on the physical conditions of the hot phase of the interstellar and the circumgalactic medium and on its interplay (via outflows and re-condensation) with the other phases.
The X-ray data from the eROSITA all sky survey are allowing us to get an unprecedented view of the hot plasma, within the Galactic echo-system.
In particular, encoded on the eROSITA all sky maps is the emission from the hot interstellar medium, the Galactic outflow, as well as from the hot circumgalactic medium going from the disc-halo interface to beyond the virial radius of galaxies.
I will review the recent progress on our knowledge of the hot phase of the Milky Way, as well as of Milky Way-like galaxies, allowed by the analysis of the eROSITA data.
