Thermodynamic Constraints on the Non-Baryonic Dark Matter Gas Composing Galactic Halos
Round 1
Reviewer 1 Report
This is a well written paper, presenting original ideas from thermodynamic theory as applied to the know theorized dark matter galactic halos. The conclusions are far-reaching, and should influence the further development of this topic.
1 typo noted on line 246: change "in frequent" to "infrequent".

Many thanks for the positive remarks. I fixed line 246, looked for other typos etc and fixed these lapses (yellow highlights).
Reviewer 2 Report
Dear editor of Galaxies
The author have studied the properties of halos gas via thermodynamics laws and kinetic theory, and showed that non-baryonic dark matter halos cannot be according to the observations. In my opinion, this paper is good and I recommend it for publishing in your journal. However the images of Figure 1 are not clear and I advise to remove this problem.
Author Response
Many thanks for the positive comments. I fixed typos etc. (marked in yellow highlights).
re figure 1, I expanded the caption to make the purpose of the figure clearer. I think that the images are not the problem, but will provide higher resolution if the managing editor thinks this is needed.
