Can Supernovae from Runaway Stars Mimic the Signs of Absorbing “Supervirial” Gas?

The recent detection of large column density absorption lines from highly ionized gas in a few directions through the circumgalactic medium (CGM) of the Milky Way (MW) has been puzzling. The inferred temperature from these absorption lines far exceeds the virial temperature of the MW, and the column...
