HEAO-1 Diffuse Soft X-ray Sky MapsMaps of the diffuse X-ray background intensity are presented, spanning four energy intervals. The lowest energy interval (0.18 to 0.56 keV) is dominated by local emission, while the next two intervals (0.56 to 1.0 keV and 1.0 to 1.4 keV) reveal more distant and more sharply defined structures. Enlarged maps of several of these structures are presented, including the North Polar Spur, the Galactic Center region and the Eridanus Loop.
