Sightline probing a cloud at a distance of 60 kpc from the mock observer located in the Milky Way. This cloud is not associated with a satellite galaxy; it is a Milky Way halo cloud. We show the H I number density along the sightline (upper panel) and 2D slices of the nearby gas cells’ H I number density, temperature, thermal plus magnetic pressure, and β. This sightline is generated in the 17-11 simulation. The red horizontal line presents the gas threshold density, which is used to define which gas cells are deemed cloud-comprising. Individual clumps are depicted as red areas under the density profile. The vector field in the second panel displays the velocity field of the gas. The colors indicate inflowing high-velocity gas (vLSR ≤ −100 km s−1) in blue and outflowing high-velocity gas (vLSR ≥ 100 km s−1) in red.
