Sa galaxies have roughly equal amounts of hot and cold gas, yet little is known about the interaction between the two phases. It is possible that the gas is thermally coupled, with cold gas cooling hot gas where the two phases interface. This would lead to a softening of the X-ray spectrum in the area of overlap. Alternatively, the phases could be thermally isolated, so that the cold gas in front of the hot gas absorbs soft X-rays behind it. We propose to observe the Sa galaxy IC~5267, which has an unusual HI distribution to search for the interaction between the two phases of its interstellar medium.
