Same galaxy, different CGM: how the metal loading of galactic winds regulates the baryon cycle in Milky Way-mass galaxies

Prachi Khatri, Freeke van de Voort, Rebekka Bieri +5

The circumgalactic medium (CGM) is both the reservoir of gas that fuels star formation and galaxy growth, and the repository for the mass, energy, and metals expelled through stell…
