Photoionisation of Supernova Driven, Turbulent, MHD Simulations of the Diffuse Ionised Gas Jo Barnes 1, Kenny Wood 1, Alex Hill 2 [1]University of St Andrews, [2] CSIRO Astronomy and Space Science

Outline Observations of the ISM MHD and radiative transfer simulations Fractal models of the ISM Scattered Light How far can photons travel in the DIG? Conclusions

Observations: WHAM Survey All sky survey of Hα (Haffner et al. 2003,2010) Wide area surveys of [NII] λ6584 and [SII]λ6716 (Reynolds et al 1998, Hausen et al, 2002) Filaments, loops and HII regions [NII]/Hα and [SII]/Hα increase with height above midplane (Haffner 1999) Additional heating mechanism (Reynolds 1999) HH [S II]/H  [S II]/[N II] [N II]/H 

MHD simulations MHD simulations of ISM from Hill et al Include type Ia and core collapse supernovae, set off at galactic supernova rate 3/5 of core collapse distributed to simulate superbubbles in the gas. Do not include photoionisation heating

Monte Carlo Radiative Transfer Monte Carlo radiation transfer code of Wood et al Includes ions of H, He, C, N, O, Ne, S Outputs 3D temperature and ionisation structure Include additional heating sources for diffuse ionised gas in the Milky Way.

Simulation Setup Subsection of MHD simulations with z = ±2kpc 24 ionising sources with scaleheight 63 pc (Maiz-Apellaniz 2001) Ionizing luminosity 0.5<Q<10 x s -1 kpc - 2. Repeating boundary conditions to simulate semi-infinite simulation box N (cm -2 ) MHD DL DL+DIG

Hα and HI

Hα Scale height Perseus Arm, H = 500 pc Q=10 x s -1 kpc -2, H = 150 pc

Fractal models of the ISM MHD simulations have a lower density above the plane than observed in the Galaxy. Average Column densities above 1kpc: MHD = 2.4 x cm -2 DL+WIM= 2.4 x cm -2 Fractal= 3.0x cm -2 Q=16 x s -1 kpc -2 Additional heating: –G = 4 x n e ergs cm -3 s Perseus Arm + Simulation: 2<z<2kpc +simulation: 1.8<z<1.8 kpc

Fractal Models Additional heating G = 4 x ergs cm -3 s -1, Q 49 =16

Scattered Light Monte Carlo scattered light code. Look at scattering of photons from HII regions Include effects of dust scattering and absorptions in the DIG

Scattered Light

Distance Travelled by Ionising Photons Ionising photons travel through low density ‘bubbles’ close to the midplane Need very few photons to travel to the top of the simulation box. Higher ionising luminosity = larger distance Photons with higher energy travel further than those with low energy Total distance Reprocessed photons

Conclusions Photoionisation of MHD simulations produces general Hα and HI with different scale heights Able to reproduce general trends that we see in the Milky Way Fractal models produce line ratios and scale heights similar to those in the Perseus Arm –But structure not the same as observed Along many sightlines scattered light has a very small impact on the observed light. Along other sight lines, particularly close to the midplane, scattered light may have a significant effect on the intensity of light observed. Only a small number of photons are required to travel large distances to ionise the DIG, but enough are able to reach the top of the simulation box and ionise the gas

Distance Travelled by Ionising Photons Q = 10 x10 49 s -1 kpc -2 Q = 1 x10 49 s -1 kpc -2 Q = 0.5 x10 49 s -1 kpc -2
