Supershell around Cas OB5
Abstract
We identified a large expanding HI shell around the Cas OB5 analyzing Leiden/Dwingeloo HI data. With the help of objects apparently associated with the bubble, we could estimate a distance of 2.5 kpc and we determined the main characteristics of the shell. Model calculations have shown that Cas OB5 had the power to form the observed structure in its neighbourhood.
