Vertical profiles of various outflow properties inside a galactocentric radius of R<30 kpc. The thick line in each panel shows the mean value at each galactic height while the shaded area spans from the 20th and 80th percentile of the volume-weighted quantity. The top panels show the vertical outflow velocity of the gas, the central panels show the actual value of the relevant accelerations a as well as their Eddington factors Γedd=−a/agrav where agrav is the gravitational acceleration, and the bottom panel shows the Alfvénic defect, which we define in and discuss after Eq. (11). Both galactic winds are first accelerated at galactic heights of 2–3 kpc where the forces of the CRs in the CRMHD simulation or thermal and magnetic forces in the MHD simulation overcome gravity.
