Characterizing Circumgalactic Gas around Massive Ellipticals at z ~ 0.4 I. Initial Results
Hsiao-Wen Chen, Fakhri S. Zahedy, Sean D. Johnson +4
We present a new Hubble Space Telescope (HST) Cosmic Origins Spectrograph (COS) absorption-line survey to study halo gas around 16 luminous red galaxies (LRGs) at z=0.21-0.55. The…
