A Galaxy Redshift Survey near HST/COS AGN Sight Lines

Brian A. Keeney, John T. Stocke, Cameron T. Pratt +8

To establish the connection between galaxies and UV-detected absorption systems in the local universe, a deep () and wide ( radius) galaxy redshift survey…

Characterizing the Circumgalactic Medium of Nearby Galaxies with HST/COS and HST/STIS Absorption-Line Spectroscopy: II. Methods and Models

Brian A. Keeney, John T. Stocke, Charles W. Danforth +6

We present basic data and modeling for a survey of the cool, photo-ionized Circum-Galactic Medium (CGM) of low-redshift galaxies using far-UV QSO absorption line probes. This surve…

The Properties of Low Redshift Intergalactic O VI Absorbers Determined from High S/N Observations of 14 QSOs with the Cosmic Origins Spectrograph

B. D. Savage, T. -S. Kim, B. P. Wakker +4

We report on the observed properties of the plasma revealed through high signal-to-noise (S/N) observations of 54 intervening O VI absorption systems containing 85 O VI and 133 H I…

HST/COS Spectra of Three QSOs That Probe The Circumgalactic Medium of a Single Spiral Galaxy: Evidence for Gas Recycling and Outflow

Brian A. Keeney, John T. Stocke, Jessica L. Rosenberg +5

We have used the Cosmic Origins Spectrograph (COS) to obtain far-UV spectra of three closely-spaced QSO sight lines that probe the circumgalactic medium (CGM) of an edge-on spiral…

Characterizing the Circumgalactic Medium of Nearby Galaxies with HST/COS and HST/STIS Absorption-Line Spectroscopy

John T. Stocke, Brian A. Keeney, Charles W. Danforth +5

The Circumgalactic Medium (CGM) of late-type galaxies is characterized using UV spectroscopy of 11 targeted QSO/galaxy pairs at z < 0.02 with the Hubble Space Telescope Cosmic Orig…

The Cosmic Origins Spectrograph

James C. Green, Cynthia S. Froning, Steve Osterman +23

The Cosmic Origins Spectrograph (COS) is a moderate-resolution spectrograph with unprecedented sensitivity that was installed into the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) in May 2009, dur…
