Comments on "A huge reservoir of ionized gas around the Milky Way: accounting for the missing mass?" (2012 ApJL, 756, 8) and "The warm-hot gaseous halo of the Milky Way" (arXiv1211.3137)

Q. Daniel Wang, Yangsen Yao

The two papers referred to in the title, claiming the detection of a large-scale massive hot gaseous halo around the Galaxy, have generated a lot of confusion and unwarranted excit…

Giant H II Regions in M101. I. X-ray Analysis of Hot Gas

Wei Sun, Yang Chen, Li Feng +4

We performed a Chandra X-ray study of three giant H II regions (GHRs), NGC 5461, NGC 5462, and NGC 5471, in the spiral galaxy M101. The X-ray spectra of the three GHRs all contain…

Continuum Halos in Nearby Galaxies -- an EVLA Survey (CHANG-ES) -- II: First Results on NGC 4631

Judith Irwin, Rainer Beck, R. A. Benjamin +19

We present the first results from the CHANG-ES survey, a new survey of 35 edge-on galaxies to search for both in-disk as well as extra-planar radio continuum emission. The motivati…

Continuum Halos in Nearby Galaxies -- an EVLA Survey (CHANG-ES) -- I: Introduction to the Survey

Judith Irwin, Rainer Beck, R. A. Benjamin +19

We introduce a new survey to map the radio continuum halos of a sample of 35 edge-on spiral galaxies at 1.5 GHz and 6 GHz in all polarization products. The survey is exploiting the…

On the soft X-ray emission of M82

Jiren Liu, Q. Daniel Wang, Shude Mao

We present a spatial analysis of the soft X-ray and Hα emissions from the outflow of the starburst galaxy M82. We find that the two emissions are tightly correlated on various scal…

Spectroscopic evidence of charge exchange X-ray emission from galaxies

Q. Daniel Wang, Jiren Liu

What are the origins of the soft X-ray line emission from non-AGN galaxies? XMM-Newton RGS spectra of nearby non-AGN galaxies (including starforming ones: M82, NGC 253, M51, M83, M…
