Description
Cosmic rays that escape from star-forming galaxies may significantly influence the dynamics or thermodynamics of the circumgalactic gas reservoir that sustains star formation over long timescales. I will explain how our semi-analytic model for cosmic ray transport and energy loss in the CGM can, in combination with empirical inputs, constrain the importance of cosmic rays in the CGM environment and inform the CRs' long-term fate.
