We use TiRiFiC to construct simulated data cubes to match the HI observations. We find that a thick disk component of scale height $\\sim\\,2\\,\\mathrm{kpc}$, characterized by a negative vertical gradient in its rotation velocity (lag) of $\\sim13 \\pm 5$ km s$^{-1}$ kpc$^{-1}$ is an adequate fit to extra-planar gas features. The tilted ring models also present evidence for a decrease in the magnitude of the lag outside of $R_{25}$, and a radial i"},"claims":{"count":0,"items":[],"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"source":{"id":"1703.09345","kind":"arxiv","version":1},"verdict":{"id":null,"model_set":{},"created_at":null,"strongest_claim":"","one_line_summary":"","pipeline_version":null,"weakest_assumption":"","pith_extraction_headline":""},"references":{"count":0,"sample":[],"resolved_work":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57","internal_anchors":0},"formal_canon":{"evidence_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"author_claims":{"count":0,"strong_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"builder_version":"pith-number-builder-2026-05-17-v1"}
