Towards a measurement of the primordial helium isotope ratio

Ryan J. Cooke, James W. Johnson, Pasquier Noterdaeme +4

We report the discovery of two metastable neutral helium (He I*) absorbers in the Milky Way, and use the upgraded CRyogenic InfraRed Echelle Spectrograph on the Very Large Telescop…

E-XQR-30: Evidence for an Increase in the Ionization State of Metal Absorbers from z~6 to z~2

Stephanie Rowlands, R. L. Davies, E. Ryan-Weber +15

We investigate the evolution of the ionization state of metal-enriched gas in and around galaxies near the epoch of reionization using a sample of 488 metal absorption systems at 4…

Unmixed metals: Variations in the enrichment of z~4 sub-damped Lyman alpha systems

Trystyn A. M. Berg, Louise A. Welsh, Ryan J. Cooke +4

The chemical abundance patterns of near-pristine objects provide important constraints on the properties of the first generations of stars in the Universe. We present the chemical…

An extremely metal-poor Lyman emitter candidate at revealed through absorption spectroscopy

Dominika Ďurovčíková, Anna-Christina Eilers, Robert A. Simcoe +10

We report the discovery of a Lyman emitter (LAE) candidate in the immediate foreground of the quasar PSO J158-14 at at a projected distance $\sim29\ {\rm p…

Towards an automatic approach to modelling the circumgalactic medium: new tools for mock making and fitting of metal profiles in large surveys

Alessia Longobardi, Matteo Fossati, Michele Fumagalli +6

We present two new tools for studying and modelling metal absorption lines in the circumgalactic medium. The first tool, dubbed ``NMF Profile Maker'' (NMFPM), uses a non-negativ…
