The GOLIATH Survey: OVI Absorption Reveals CGM Evolution through the Starburst-to-Quiescent Transition in Massive Galaxies
Derick Flores, Rongmon Bordoloi, Jason Tumlinson +12
We present the GOLIATH survey (Galaxies, Outflows, and the Lifecycle of Immense, Active, Transforming Halos), a study of the multiphase circumgalactic medium (CGM) of massive ($\la…
A Decade to Map the Diffuse Universe: FRB-QSO Pairs with HST/COS Spectroscopy
Jessica Werk, Matthew McQuinn, J. Xavier Prochaska +16
Jointly analyzing the sightlines of arcsecond-localized fast radio bursts (FRBs) and UV-bright quasars (QSOs) nearby in projection has the potential to provide strong constraints o…
High-S/N Quasar Observations with HST/COS: Deep Fields for Spectroscopy
Andrew J. Fox, Jerry Kriss, Philipp Richter +49
Hubble is still in prime observing condition for making transformative discoveries in UV astronomy. In this white paper we describe the science case for a deep (S/N>30) UV spectros…
The COS-Halos Survey: Physical Conditions and Baryonic Mass in the Low-Redshift Circumgalactic Medium
Jessica K. Werk, J. Xavier Prochaska, Jason Tumlinson +13
We analyze the physical conditions of the cool, photoionized (T K) circumgalactic medium (CGM) using the COS-Halos suite of gas column density measurements for 44 gaseo…
The High-Ion Content and Kinematics of Low-Redshift Lyman Limit Systems
Andrew J. Fox, Nicolas Lehner, Jason Tumlinson +9
We study the high-ionization phase and kinematics of the circumgalactic medium around low-redshift galaxies using a sample of 23 Lyman Limit Systems (LLSs) at 0.08<z<0.93 observed…
The COS-Halos Survey: Rationale, Design, and A Census of Circumgalactic Neutral Hydrogen
Jason Tumlinson, Christopher Thom, Jessica Werk +11
We present the design and methods of the COS-Halos survey, a systematic investigation of the gaseous halos of 44 z = 0.15-0.35 galaxies using background QSOs observed with the Cosm…
