Corner plot showing the distribution of ISM properties (Galactocentric radius R, midplane density nH, mid, velocity dispersion σ, vertical scale height zscale and vertical velocity gradient ∂zvz) at the SNR locations averaged over various length scales. We average over quadratic apertures with side lengths L = 0.2, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0 kpc. As expected the mean of nH, mid decreases with R, with large scatter at R > 2 kpc. Compared to the ICs, the mean density profile has steepened. The velocity dispersion is roughly constant σ ∼ 10 km/s throughout the disk with considerable scatter. The disk scale height follows the scaling behavior predicted by vertical hydrostatic equilibrium of the gas
, but with a slightly lower normalization, likely due to the presence of stars. The vertical velocity gradient on average is zero with increasing scatter towards larger R. The maximum values reveal a preferred scale of
indicating that these expansion and contraction motions correspond to gravitational breathing modes of the disk. The velocity gradients peak around nH, mid ∼ 1 cm−3, namely, the breathing of the disk coincides with the presence of multi-phase gas (see Fig. A.1).
