24 Gaseous galactic halos Ralf-Jürgen Dettmar Island Universes July 6, 2005 24

25 Gaseous galactic halos Ralf-Jürgen Dettmar Island Universes July 6, 2005 25 DIG halo of NGC 5775 VLT / FORS1 slit positions

26 Gaseous galactic halos Ralf-Jürgen Dettmar Island Universes July 6, 2005 26 NGC 5775 rotation drops to systemic

27 Gaseous galactic halos Ralf-Jürgen Dettmar Island Universes July 6, 2005 27 balancing the gas motion at high galactic latitudes: Benjamin 1999

28 Gaseous galactic halos Ralf-Jürgen Dettmar Island Universes July 6, 2005 28 differential velocities in z important for dynamo models: B   z dv/dz

29 Gaseous galactic halos Ralf-Jürgen Dettmar Island Universes July 6, 2005 29

30 Gaseous galactic halos Ralf-Jürgen Dettmar Island Universes July 6, 2005 30 Line ratios require additional heating in excess of photoionization

31 Gaseous galactic halos Ralf-Jürgen Dettmar Island Universes July 6, 2005 31 WHAM Milky Way Nearby Galaxy NGC55 Reynolds et al Bomans, Tüllmann, Dettmar, Ferguson

32 Gaseous galactic halos Ralf-Jürgen Dettmar Island Universes July 6, 2005 32 Wisconsin H  Mapper WHAM (Reynolds, Haffner, Tuffte,...) T is raising with z : additional heating!

33 Gaseous galactic halos Ralf-Jürgen Dettmar Island Universes July 6, 2005 33

34 Gaseous galactic halos Ralf-Jürgen Dettmar Island Universes July 6, 2005 34 Elwert & RJD, ApJ in press

35 Gaseous galactic halos Ralf-Jürgen Dettmar Island Universes July 6, 2005 35 Summary: the presence of gas in halos is correlated with the star formation in the underlying disk halo DIG is a good tracer and correlates with X-ray gas, radio-synchrotron emission, and the presence of dust at high latitudes there is low level star formation in halos emission line ratios of the DIG are explained by photoionization + a 10% contribution of extra heating
