26Al in the local interstellar medium
Abstract
We estimate the 1.8 MeV luminosity of the Sco-Cen association due to radioactive decay of 26Al to (4-15) 10e-5 ph cm**-2 s**-1. We propose a low surface brightness, limb brightened bubble for the 1.8 MeV intensity distribution. The detectibility of this distribution with existing gamma-ray telescopes is discussed.
