We combine a FUSE sample of OVI absorbers (z < 0.15) with a database of 1.07 million galaxy redshifts to explore the relationship between absorbers and galaxy environments. All 37…
Discovery of a Dwarf Post-Starburst Galaxy Near a High Column Density Ly-alpha Absorber
J. T. Stocke, B. A. Keeney, K. M. McLin +3
We report the discovery of a dwarf (M_B = -13.9) post-starburst galaxy coincident in recession velocity (within uncertainties) with the highest column density absorber (N_HI = 10^1…
