On the connection between galaxy orientation and halo absorption properties

Rohan Venkat, Soo May Wee, Hsiao-Wen Chen

We present a systematic investigation of the azimuthal dependence of metal-line absorption in the circumgalactic medium (CGM) using a uniformly selected sample of 87 isolated galax…

Mission: Impossible (Escape from the Lyman Limit)

A. Fernandez-Soto, K. M. Lanzetta, H. -W. Chen

We investigate the intrinsic opacity of high-redshift galaxies to outgoing ionising photons using high-quality photometry of a sample of 27 spectroscopically-identified galaxies of…

Error analysis of the photometric redshift tecnique

A. Fernandez-Soto, K. M. Lanzetta, H. -W. Chen +2

We present a calculation of the systematic component of the error budget in the photometric redshift technique. We make use of it to describe a simple technique that allows for the…

Constraints on the Unseen Galaxy Population from the Lyman-alpha Forest

Kenneth M. Lanzetta, Hsiao-Wen Chen, John K. Webb +1

Here we describe results of our attempt to determine what types of galaxies are responsible for the Lyman-alpha forest absorption systems, based on our ongoing imaging and spectros…

The Gaseous Extent of Galaxies and The Origin of QSO Absorption Line Systems

H. -W. Chen, K. M. Lanzetta, J. K. Webb +2

We present results of an ongoing program to study the gaseous extent of galaxies and the origin of QSO absorption line systems. For \lya absorption systems, we find that absorption…

The Gaseous Extent of Galaxies and the Origin of \lya Absorption Systems. III. Hubble Space Telescope Imaging of \lya-Absorbing Galaxies at z < 1

H. -W. Chen, K. M. Lanzetta, J. K. Webb +1

We present initial results of a program to obtain and analyze HST WFPC2 images of galaxies identified in an imaging and spectroscopic survey of faint galaxies in fields of HST spec…
