No evidence for large-scale X-ray-emitting galactic halos
Li et al. (2006)
![Page 14: Summary: Galactic hot ISM](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051416/56812f31550346895d94c565/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Summary: Nearby galaxies• Good News
– At least two components of diffuse hot gas:• Disk – driven by massive star formation• Bulge – heated primarily by Type-Ia SNe
– Characteristic extent and temperature similar to the Galactic values
• Bad news– Missing stellar feedback, at least in early-type spirals. – Little evidence for X-ray emission or absorption from
IGM accretion --- maybe good news for solving the over-cooling problem.
Are these problems related?

Feedback
• Radiation• AGNs• Supernovae
– Core-collapsed SNe– Type 1a

Bulge wind model• Spherical, steady, and adiabatic • NFW Dark matter halo + stellar bulge• Energy and mass input follows the
stellar light distribution• CIE plasma emission• Implemented in XSPEC for both
projected spectral and radial surface brightness analyses

Data vs model
Consistent with the expected total mass loss and SN rates as well as the Fe abundance of ~ 4 x solar!

3-D hydro simulations• Goals
– To characterize the density, temperature, and metal abundance structures, the heating and cooling processes, and the kinematics of the HISM
– To calibrate the 1-D model• Hydro simulations with metal particle tracers
– Parallel, adaptive mesh refinement FLASH code– Whole galactic bulge simulation with the finest
refinement in one octant down to 6 pc– Stellar mass injection and SNe, following stellar
light– Realistic gravitational potential of the bulge and
the dark matter halo

Conclusions and implications
• Large inhomogeneity is expected– particularly in the hot Fe distribution– enhanced emission at both low and high
temperatures (compared to the 1-D solution)
• SNe generate waves in the HISM– Energy not dissipated locally or in swept-up
shells– Maybe eventually damped by cool gas or in
the galactic hot halo– Galactic wind not necessary– Possible solution to the over-cooling
problem of galaxy formation

Galactic bulge simulation: Fe• Fe-rich ejecta
dominate the high-T emission
• Not well-mixed with the ambient medium
• May cool too fast to be mixed with the global hot ISM
