Summary

Description
English: This is a CROPPED PART(!) of a figure from the study. Screenshot was made via Okular & Spectacle. Description for the complete(!) figure below. See the source for the complete figure and more images.

"FIG. 2.— 3D views of the Per-Tau shell (for an interactive version of this figure click here a b . See Fig. 5 for more static visualizations). Plotted are density iso-surfaces at levels n = 5 cm−3 (grey) and n = 25 cm−3 (color), overlaid with our spherical shell model,radius Rs = 78 pc, distance from the sun d = 218 pc. The n = 25 cm−3 surfaces are colored by distance from the sun (blue-to-red). Upper-left: View from the sun (compare with Fig. 1). Upper-right: A side view of the region. Perseus and Taurus and their diffuse envelopes are arranged on two opposing sides of the Per-Tau shell. Lower-left: Another side view emphasizing the Tau Ring. The ellipse is the Tau Ring model (Appendix B). Lower-right: 2D density slices along the xy, xz, yz planes. All planes intersect at shell’s center. In all panels xyz are the Heliocentric Cartesian Galactic Coordinates. a URL address for the interactive figure: https://faun.rc.fas.harvard.edu/czucker/Paper Figures/sbialy/pertau superbubble.html.
