The phase and turbulent properties of Cattail


 A recent publication discovered one of the largest filamentary neutral hydrogen features dubbed Cattail from high resolution FAST observations that might be a new galactic arm of the Milky Way. We evaluate the turbulent and phase properties of Cattail via the newly developed Velocity Decomposition Algorithm and Force Balancing Model. We discover that, if there exists a phase transition, then Cattail is unlikely in the cold neutral media phase. We also show that the Cattail is two disjoint features in caustics space, suggesting that the Cattail has two different turbulent systems. We check the spectra of the individual system separated via VDA to confirm this argument. We do not exclude the existence of smaller scale cold media being embedded within this structure.
