MUSE-DARK-II: 3D morpho-kinematic modelling of lensed galaxies. Tully-Fisher relation of star-forming galaxies
Alexandre Jeanneau, Johan Richard, Nicolas F. Bouché +5
In a series of papers on lensed kinematics, we seek to combine the sensitivity of 3D forward modelling to low signal-to-noise ratio outskirts with the enhanced spatial resolution o…

We present the design, rationale, properties and catalogs of the MusE Gas FLOw and Wind survey (MEGAFLOW), a survey of the cool gaseous halos of galaxies using low-ionizat…
The MUSE Extremely Deep Field: Classifying the Spectral Shapes of Lya Emitting Galaxies
E. Vitte, A. Verhamme, P. Hibon +14
The Hydrogen Lyman-alpha (Lya) line shows a large variety of shapes which is caused by factors at different scales, from the interstellar medium to the intergalactic medium. This w…
The MUSE eXtremely Deep Field: Detections of circumgalactic SiII* emission at z>~2
Haruka Kusakabe, Valentin Mauerhofer, Anne Verhamme +17
The circumgalactic medium (CGM) serves as a baryon reservoir that connects galaxies to the intergalactic medium and fuels star formation. The spatial distribution of the metal-enri…
MusE GAs FLOw and Wind (MEGAFLOW) X. The cool gas and covering fraction of MgII in galaxy groups
Maxime Cherrey, Nicolas Bouché, Johannes Zabl +8
We present a study of the cool gas ( K) traced by MgII absorptions around groups of galaxies in the MEGAFLOW survey. Using a combination of two algorithms we blindly…
MAGIC: Muse gAlaxy Groups In Cosmos -- A survey to probe the impact of environment on galaxy evolution over the last 8 Gyr
B. Epinat, T. Contini, W. Mercier +22
We introduce the MUSE gAlaxy Groups in COSMOS (MAGIC) survey, which was built to study the impact of environment on galaxy evolution over the last 8 Gyr. It consists of 17 MUSE fie…
Spatially-resolved Spectroscopic Analysis of Ly Haloes: Radial Evolution of the Ly Line Profile out to 60 kpc
Yucheng Guo, Roland Bacon, Lutz Wisotzki +11
The extended Ly haloes (LAHs) have been found to be prevalent around high-redshift star-forming galaxies. However, the origin of the LAHs is still a subject of debate. Spatially…
Median Surface Brightness Profiles of Lyman- Haloes in the MUSE Extremely Deep Field
Yucheng Guo, Roland Bacon, Lutz Wisotzki +10
We present the median surface brightness profiles of diffuse Ly haloes (LAHs) around star-forming galaxies by stacking 155 spectroscopically confirmed Ly emitters (LAEs) at 3…
The Tully-Fisher relation in dense groups at in the MAGIC survey
Valentina Abril-Melgarejo, Benoît Epinat, Wilfried Mercier +11
Galaxies in dense environments are subject to interactions and mechanisms which directly affect their evolution by lowering their gas fractions and reducing their star-forming capa…
New criteria for the selection of galaxy close pairs from cosmological simulations: evolution of the major and minor merger fraction in MUSE deep fields
E. Ventou, T. Contini, N. Bouché +8
It is still a challenge to assess the merger fraction of galaxies at different cosmic epochs in order to probe the evolution of their mass assembly. Using the Illustris cosmologica…

We present an analysis of HI Lyman-alpha emission in deep VLT/MUSE observations of two highly magnified and extended galaxies at z=3.5 and 4.03, including a newly discovered, almos…
Resolved scaling relations and metallicity gradients on sub-kiloparsec scales at z=1
V. Patrício, J. Richard, D. Carton +9
The existence of a spatially resolved Star-Forming Main Sequence (rSFMS) and a spatially resolved Mass-Metallicity Relation (rMZR) is now well established for local galaxies. Moreo…
The MUSE-Wide Survey: Survey Description and First Data Release

Nearly all the sky is covered by Lyman-alpha emission around high redshift galaxies
