Origin of gas in the Magellanic Bridge: MeerKAT detection of HI 21-cm absorption

A. P. M. Morelli, J. Kerp, N. Gupta +6

HI 21-cm absorption lines are investigated to determine the origin of the neutral atomic hydrogen (HI) of the Magellanic Bridge (MB). Using the MeerKat Absorption Line Survey (MALS…

The MeerKAT Absorption Line Survey (MALS) data release 3: Cold atomic gas associated with the Milky Way

N. Gupta, J. Kerp, S. A. Balashev +15

We present results of a blind search for Galactic HI 21-cm absorption lines toward 19130 radio sources, using 390 pointings of MALS, each pointing centered on a source brighter tha…

Exploring quasar evolution with proximate molecular absorbers: Insights from the kinematics of highly ionized nitrogen

R. Cuellar, P. Noterdaeme, S. Balashev +3

We investigate the presence and kinematics of NV absorption proximate to high redshift quasars selected upon the presence of strong and HI absorption at the quasar redshift…

The rich galactic environment of a H-absorption selected quasar

F. Urbina, P. Noterdaeme, T. A. M. Berg +3

We present the first VLT/MUSE observations of a quasar featuring a proximate molecular absorption system, SDSS J125917.31+030922.5. The proximate damped Ly absorption acts as a…

Limits on the OH Molecule in the Smith High Velocity Cloud

Anthony H. Minter, Felix J. Lockman, S. A. Balashev +1

We have used the Green Bank Telescope (GBT) to search for the OH molecule at several locations in the Smith Cloud, one of the most prominent of the high-velocity clouds that surrou…

Neutral carbon in diffuse interstellar medium: abundance matching with H2 for DLAs at high redshifts

Sergei Balashev, Daria Kosenko

We present the study of CI/H relative abundance in the diffuse cold neutral medium. Using the chemical and thermal balance model we calculated the dependence of CI/H on the…
