Scientific paper

A new type of galactic outflow phenomenon has been discovered and published under the name of "thermal spur" by Müller et al. (1987). It is argued that this outflow consists of relativistic pair plasma with an admixture of partially ionized hydrogen and cosmic rays, escaping from a large H II region. This "chimney" serves as a substantial leak for the cosmic rays, i.e. it may be an essential part of the galactic fountain.
