TL;DR
This study investigates the presence of extraplanar radio emission in edge-on starburst galaxies, aiming to understand galactic winds driven by intense star formation.
Contribution
It introduces a new sample selection criteria and software for detecting extraplanar radio emission in starburst galaxies.
Findings
Sample selection criteria established.
Software developed for wind detection.
Next steps outlined for further analysis.
Abstract
The intense star formation in starburst galaxies results in the formation of intense winds that sweep matter up to several kpc out of the galactic plane. These winds can be detected in many bands of the electromagnetic spectrum. In this opportunity, we present our project to study three edge-on galaxies, candidates to show extraplanar emission at radio wavelengths. We will describe the criteria followed in selecting the sample and the software developed to detect the presence of the wind. Besides, we will discuss the next steps of this project.
