The Extended Distribution of Baryons Around Galaxies
Joel N. Bregman, Michael E. Anderson, Matthew J. Miller +5
We summarize and reanalyze observations bearing upon missing galactic baryons, where we propose a consistent picture for halo gas in L >~ L* galaxies. The hot X-ray emitting halos…
The Interaction of the Fermi Bubbles with the Milky Way's Hot Gas Halo
Matthew J. Miller, Joel N. Bregman
The Fermi bubbles are two lobes filled with non-thermal particles that emit gamma rays, extend 10 kpc vertically from the Galactic center, and formed from either nuclear s…
The Rotation of the Hot Gas Around the Milky Way
Edmund J. Hodges-Kluck, Matthew J. Miller, Joel N. Bregman
The hot gaseous halos of galaxies likely contain a large amount of mass and are an integral part of galaxy formation and evolution. The Milky Way has a 2e6 K halo that is detected…
The Milky Way's Hot Gas Kinematics: Signatures in Current and Future OVII Absorption Line Observations
Matthew J. Miller, Edmund J. Hodges-Kluck, Joel N. Bregman
Detections of 0 oxygen absorption and emission lines indicate the Milky Way hosts a hot ( K), low-density plasma extending 50 kpc into the Mily Way'…
Strategies for Detecting the Missing Hot Baryons in the Universe
Joel N. Bregman, Guilherme Camargo Alves, Matthew J. Miller +1
About 30-50% of the baryons in the local Universe are unaccounted for and are likely in a hot phase, 10^5.5-10^8 K. A hot halo (10^6.3 K) is detected around the Milky Way through t…
Constraining the Milky Way's Hot Gas Halo with OVII and OVII Emission Lines
Matthew J. Miller, Joel N. Bregman
The Milky Way hosts a hot ( K), diffuse, gaseous halo based on detections of z = 0 OVII and OVIII absorption lines in quasar spectra and emission lines in bl…
The Structure of the Milky Way's Hot Gas Halo
Matthew Miller, Joel Bregman
The Milky Way's million degree gaseous halo contains a considerable amount of mass that, depending on its structural properties, can be a significant mass component. In order to an…
Outflow vs. Infall in Spiral Galaxies: Metal Absorption in the Halo of NGC 891
Joel N. Bregman, Eric D. Miller, Patrick Seitzer +2
Gas accreting onto a galaxy will be of low metallicity while halo gas due to a galactic fountain will be of near-solar metallicity. We test these predictions by measuring the metal…
