R. J. Rand
Existing long-slit spectral data for edge-on spiral galaxies suggesting that their Diffuse Ionized Gas (DIG) halos rotate slower than their underlying disks are summarized. An atte…

Kinematics of the Ionized Halo of NGC 5775
G. H. Heald, R. J. Rand, R. A. Benjamin +2
Studies of the kinematics of gaseous halos in some spiral galaxies have shown that the rotational velocity of the gas decreases with height above the midplane (z). This vertical ve…
