The Keck Baryonic Structure Survey: Using foreground/background galaxy pairs to trace the structure and kinematics of circumgalactic neutral hydrogen at

Yuguang Chen, Charles C. Steidel, Cameron B. Hummels +13

We present new measurements of the spatial distribution and kinematics of neutral hydrogen in the circumgalactic and intergalactic medium surrounding star-forming galaxies at z ~ 2…

On the Survival of Cool Clouds in the Circum-Galactic Medium

Zhihui Li, Philip F. Hopkins, Jonathan Squire +1

We explore the survival of cool clouds in multi-phase circum-galactic media. We revisit the "cloud crushing problem" in a large survey of simulations including radiative cooling, s…

Properties of the Circumgalactic Medium in Cosmic Ray-Dominated Galaxy Halos

Suoqing Ji, T. K. Chan, Cameron B. Hummels +6

We investigate the impact of cosmic rays (CRs) on the circumgalactic medium (CGM) in FIRE-2 simulations, for ultra-faint dwarf through Milky Way (MW)-mass halos hosting star-formin…

Astro2020 APC White Paper: Elevating the Role of Software as a Product of the Research Enterprise

Arfon M. Smith, Dara Norman, Kelle Cruz +42

Software is a critical part of modern research, and yet there are insufficient mechanisms in the scholarly ecosystem to acknowledge, cite, and measure the impact of research softwa…

But What About... Cosmic Rays, Magnetic Fields, Conduction, & Viscosity in Galaxy Formation

Philip F. Hopkins, T. K. Chan, Shea Garrison-Kimmel +6

We present a suite of high-resolution cosmological simulations, using the FIRE-2 feedback physics together with explicit treatment of magnetic fields, anisotropic conduction and vi…

The Nature of Ionized Gas in the Milky Way Galactic Fountain

Jessica K. Werk, Kate H. R. Rubin, Hannah V. Bish +6

We address the spatial scale, ionization structure, mass and metal content of gas at the Milky Way disk-halo interface detected as absorption in the foreground of seven closely-spa…
