The Local Lyman-Alpha Forest: Absorbers in Galaxy Voids
Kevin M. McLin, John T. Stocke, R. J. Weymann +2
We have conducted pointed redshift surveys for galaxies in the direction of bright AGN whose HST far-UV spectra contain nearby (cz <~ 30,000 kms), low column density (12.5 <= log N…
New X-ray Clusters in the EMSS II: Optical Properties
Aaron D. Lewis, E. Ellingson, John T. Stocke
We present optical images for 9 new clusters of galaxies we have found in a reanalysis of the Einstein IPC images comprising the Extended Medium Sensitivity Survey (EMSS). Based on…
New X-ray Clusters in the EMSS I: Modifications to the XLF
Aaron D. Lewis, John T. Stocke, E. Ellingson +1
The complete ensemble of Einstein Imaging Proportional Counter (IPC) X-ray images has been re-processed and re-analyzed using a multi-aperture source detection algorithm. A catalog…
The Local Ly-alpha forest: Association of absorbers with galaxies, voids, and superclusters
John T. Stocke
We describe recent discoveries of low column density [N(HI) < 10^14.5 cm^-2] H I Ly-alpha absorbers made with the Hubble Space Telescope (HST), which have allowed us a first look a…
The Local Ly-alpha Forest: HI in Nearby Intergalactic Space
John T. Stocke, J. Michael Shull, Steven V. Penton +3
Detecting HI using redshifted Ly-alpha absorption lines is 1e6 times more sensitive than using the 21cm emission line. We review recent discoveries of HI Ly-alpha absorbers made wi…
Do High-Velocity Clouds Really Fuel Galactic Star Formation?
Brad K. Gibson, Mark L. Giroux, John T. Stocke +1
Tantalizing evidence has been presented supporting the suggestion that a large population of extragalactic gas clouds permeates the Local Group, a population which has been associa…
