The Effect of Mixing on the Observed Metallicity of the Smith Cloud

David B. Henley, Jeffrey A. Gritton, Robin L. Shelton

Measurements of high-velocity clouds' metallicities provide important clues about their origins, and hence on whether they play a role in fueling ongoing star formation in the Gala…

Si iv Column Densities Predicted from Non-Equilibrium Ionization Simulations of Turbulent Mixing Layers and High-Velocity Clouds

Kyujin Kwak, Robin L. Shelton, David B. Henley

We present predictions of the Si iv ions in turbulent mixing layers (TMLs) between hot and cool gas and in cool high-velocity clouds (HVCs) that travel through a hot halo, compleme…

XMM-Newton and Suzaku X-ray Shadowing Measurements of the Solar Wind Charge Exchange, Local Bubble, and Galactic Halo Emission

David B. Henley, Robin L. Shelton

We present results from a sample of XMM-Newton and Suzaku observations of interstellar clouds that cast shadows in the soft X-ray background (SXRB) - the first uniform analysis of…

The Origin of the Hot Gas in the Galactic Halo: Testing Galactic Fountain Models' X-ray Emission

David B. Henley, Robin L. Shelton, Kyujin Kwak +2

We test the X-ray emission predictions of galactic fountain models against XMM-Newton measurements of the emission from the Milky Way's hot halo. These measurements are from 110 si…

XMM-Newton Measurement of the Galactic Halo X-ray Emission using a Compact Shadowing Cloud

David B. Henley, Robin L. Shelton, Renata S. Cumbee +1

Observations of interstellar clouds that cast shadows in the soft X-ray background can be used to separate the background Galactic halo emission from the local emission due to sola…

The Origin of the X-ray Emission from the High-velocity Cloud MS30.7-81.4-118

David B. Henley, Robin L. Shelton, Kyujin Kwak

A soft X-ray enhancement has recently been reported toward the high-velocity cloud MS30.7-81.4-118 (MS30.7), a constituent of the Magellanic Stream. In order to investigate the ori…
