Covering the central 20*2.5deg2 of the Milky Way disc with 20ks XMM exposures will allow us to measure the flows of hot baryons emerging from the energetic activity in the disc comma to detail their impact on the surroundings and to connect the sources in the disc with the base of the Galactic outflow. By connecting the requested XMM scan with the shallow all sky eROSITA survey comma we will determine whether the activity in the Galactic disc is important for feeding and sustaining the Galactic corona. This study will provide us with an excellent archetype for advancing our understanding of galaxy evolution theory in a Milky-Way-class galaxy. This project will produce a legacy dataset that will be used in the future for multiple purposes comma including multi-wavelength and time-domain investigations.
