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…
MusE GAs FLOw and Wind (MEGAFLOW) XII. Rationale and design of a MgII survey of the cool circum-galactic medium with MUSE and UVES: The MEGAFLOW Survey
N. F. Bouché, M. Wendt, J. Zabl +11
We present the design, rationale, properties and catalogs of the MusE Gas FLOw and Wind survey (MEGAFLOW), a survey of the cool gaseous halos of galaxies using low-ionizat…
MusE GAs FLOw and Wind (MEGAFLOW) XIII. Cool gas traced by MgII around isolated galaxies
Maxime Cherrey, Nicolas F. Bouché, Johannes Zabl +7
The circumgalactic medium (CGM) is a key component needed to understand the physical processes governing the flows of gas around galaxies. Quantifying its evolution and its depende…
