Fountain pattern of baryon cycle revealed in galaxy ecosystems

Chengyu Ma, Yangyao Chen, Enci Wang +11

Baryons in galaxy ecosystems are believed to undergo continuous cycles of inflow and outflow, forming fountain-like patterns that encode key information about how galaxies acquire…

Observational Evidence for Anisotropic Metal Excess around Galaxies

Cheqiu Lyu, Enci Wang, Zeyu Chen +4

The exchange of matter and energy between galaxies and their surroundings drives the cosmic baryon cycle, yet mapping metal transport remains an observational challenge. While simu…

Cooler Phases of the Circumgalactic Medium Are More Centrally Concentrated: Constraints from Multiphase Absorption Lines

Weiwen Kong, Zeyu Chen, Enci Wang +7

We present a systematic study of the multiphase circumgalactic medium (CGM) around galaxies and quasars, traced by Ca II , Mg II , and C IV $λ…

Where, What, Why, and Importance: Structured Defect Grounding for Text-to-Image Feedback

Huaisong Zhang, Hao Yu, Yuxuan Zhang +7

Despite generating increasingly photorealistic images, text-to-image (T2I) models still exhibit localized, subtle, and structurally complex failures. Diagnosing these failures requ…

First Statistical Detection of MgII-traced Cool Gas Outflows with JWST Towards Cosmic Dawn

Cheqiu Lyu, Haoran Yu, Enci Wang +9

Galactic-scale outflows are a crucial component of galaxy evolution, yet their properties in the early universe remain poorly constrained. We present the first statistical investig…

Stellar feedback drives the baryon deficiency in low-mass galaxies

Haoran Yu, Enci Wang, Zeyu Chen +8

Stellar feedback, as a key process regulating the baryon cycle, is thought to greatly redistribute baryonic material inside and outside the dark matter halos (DMHs), however the ob…

Central Concentration and Escape of Ionizing Photons in Galaxies at the Epoch of Reionization

Cheqiu Lyu, Enci Wang, Junxian Wang +9

Compact, low-mass galaxies with strong nebular emission are considered promising candidates for efficient ionizing photon production and escape. We present a spatially resolved ana…

The Cosmic Evolution and Spatial Distribution of Multiphase Gas associated with QSOs

Zeyu Chen, Enci Wang, Hu Zou +10

We investigate the multi-phase gas surrounding QSOs traced by 33 absorption lines (e.g., Ly, C\,\textsc{iv}, Fe\,\textsc{ii}, Mg\,\textsc{ii}, etc.) in the stacked spectra of ba…

Potential-Driven Metal Cycling: JADES Census of Gas-Phase Metallicity for galaxies at 1 < z < 7

Cheng Jia, Enci Wang, Cheqiu Lyu +9

The gravitational potential is established as a critical determinant of gas-phase metallicity (12+log(O/H)) in low-redshift galaxies, whereas its influence remains unconfirmed at h…

Central Velocity Dispersion being the Primary Driver of Abundance Patterns in Quenched Galaxies

Haixin Li, Enci Wang, Cheqiu Lyu +6

The element abundances of galaxies provide crucial insights into their formation and evolution. Using high-resolution IFU data from the MaNGA survey, we analyze the central spectra…

Dominant Role of Coplanar Inflows in Driving Disk Evolution Revealed by Gas-Phase Metallicity Gradients

Cheqiu Lyu, Enci Wang, Hongxin Zhang +8

Using spatially resolved spectroscopic data from the MaNGA sample, we investigate the parameters influencing the radial gradients of gas-phase metallicity ($\nabla\log(\mathrm{O/H}…

The circumgalactic medium traced by Mg II absorption with DESI: dependence on galaxy stellar mass, star formation rate and azimuthal angle

Zeyu Chen, Enci Wang, Hu Zou +10

Understanding the circumgalactic medium (CGM) distribution of galaxies is the key to revealing the dynamical exchange of materials between galaxies and their surroundings. In this…

Revisiting the fundamental metallicity relation with observation and simulation

Chengyu Ma, Kai Wang, Enci Wang +7

The gas-phase metallicity of galaxies is regulated by multiple astrophysical processes, which makes it a crucial diagnostic of galaxy formation and evolution. Beyond the fundamenta…
