A Markov Chain Monte Carlo technique to sample transport and source parameters of Galactic cosmic rays - II. Results for the diffusion model combining B/C and radioactive nuclei (2010, unknown): “This picture has been refined by subsequent studies, e.g., Lallement et al. (2003).”
The Structure of the Local Interstellar Medium. V. Electron Densities (2007, unknown): “Recent evidence of soft X-ray emission at the heliosphere due to charge exchange between the solar wind and incoming LISM appears to contribute to the soft X-ray emission that was previously fully attributed to the hot Local Bubble gas (e.g., Lallement 2004).”
CONSTRAINING THE MILKY WAY'S HOT GAS HALO WITH O vii AND O viii EMISSION LINES (2014, methodology): “These path lengths come from Na I absorption line measurements of 1005 nearby (.350 pc) stars (Lallement et al. 2003).”
Nearby Debris Disk Systems with High Fractional Luminosity Reconsidered (2006, methodology): “After checking the positions of our sources projected on recent maps of the Local Bubble (Lallement et al. 2003), we discarded all objects situated in the wall of the bubble or beyond.”

3D maps of the local ISM from inversion of individual color excess measurements (2013, methodology): “Lallement et al.(2003) gathered data for the specific purpose of mapping the so-called Local Bubble or Local cavity, a 100-200 pc-wide cavity around the Sun, and applied the same method to a larger NaI data set (around 1,000 sightlines) with Hipparcos distances.”
OXYGEN ABUNDANCES IN NEARBY FGK STARS AND THE GALACTIC CHEMICAL EVOLUTION OF THE LOCAL DISK AND HALO (2013, background): “As shown by, e.g., Lallement et al. (2003), the Sun is located inside a “Local Bubble” of low interstellar gas density which appears to be dust free.”

Giants in the Local Region (2007, background): “However, the extinctionwithin 75 pc of Sun (the Local Bubble) is essentially nil (e.g., Lallement et al. 2003; Breitschwerdt et al. 2000; Sfeir et al. 1999; Leroy 1999; Vergely et al. 1998).”
A NEW ELECTRON-DENSITY MODEL FOR ESTIMATION OF PULSAR AND FRB DISTANCES (2016, methodology): “Observations of Na I absorption in nearby stars with accurate distances, either from EUV observations (Welsh et al. 1999) or Hipparcos parallaxes (Lallement et al. 2003), led to a model for the Local Bubble consisting of a tilted chimney-like cavity extending out of the Galactic disk on both sides…”

What Is the Total Deuterium Abundance in the Local Galactic Disk? (2006, background): “Given the complex three dimensional shape of the Local Bubble (Lallement et al. 2003), these assumptions for its column densities are approximations, but they provide good first estimates of the foreground required for isolating the deuterium and hydrogen column densities of the gas lying beyond…”
A UNIFIED REPRESENTATION OF GAS-PHASE ELEMENT DEPLETIONS IN THE INTERSTELLAR MEDIUM (2009, background): “…low density; it is a region known as the Local Bubble (Cox & Reynolds 1987; Breitschwerdt et al. 1996; Vallerga 1996; Ferlet 1999; Lallement et al. 2003; Frisch 2007), and it contains a collection of isolated, warm clouds (Redfield & Linsky 2004a, b) embedded within and confined…”
An absolutely calibrated T eff scale from the infrared flux method. Dwarfs and subgiants (2010, background): “70 pc from the Sun (e.g. Leroy 1993; Lallement et al. 2003) and so we have adoptedE(B − V) = 0 for all stars havingHipparcos parallaxes (van Leeuwen 2007) and satisfying this requirement on the distance.”

The Pipe nebula (2006, background): “The presence of absorbing material towards the location of the Pipe nebula at distances below 50 pc is also suggested by the recent work of Lallement et al. (2003), where they construct 3D absorption maps of the local distribution of neutral gas through measurements of equivalent widths of the…”
Revisiting the population of Galactic open clusters (2005, methodology): “…of interstellar extinction within the local disk, typically up to 3 kpc. Recently, Hipparcos parallaxes and data on the equivalent widths of NaI lines in spectra of about 1000 local stars were used for a detailed mapping of the immediate (d < 0.3 kpc) Solar neighbourhood (Lallement et al. 2003).”
