MusE GAs FLOw and Wind (MEGAFLOW) XIV: Background-Galaxy Absorption Reveals Kiloparsec-Scale Structure in the Cool Circumgalactic Medium

Yucheng Guo, Nicolas F. Bouché, Martin Wendt +9

The properties of the cool (~K) gas in the circumgalactic medium (CGM) are closely linked to the physical mechanisms that create and maintain this multiphase medium. The…

Accurate spectroscopic redshift estimation using non-negative matrix factorization: application to MUSE spectra

Masten Bourahma, Nicolas F. Bouché, Roland Bacon +5

Accurate and automated galaxy redshift determination is essential for maximizing the scientific return of spectroscopic surveys. In this paper, we propose a data-driven method to a…

Bipolar Outflows out to 10~kpc for Massive Galaxies at Redshift

Yucheng Guo, Roland Bacon, Nicolas F. Bouché +15

Galactic outflows are believed to play a critical role in the evolution of galaxies by regulating their mass build-up and star formation. Theoretical models assumes bipolar shapes…
