Dissecting the Gaseous Halos of z~2 Damped Ly Systems with Close Quasar Pairs
Kate H. R. Rubin, Joseph F. Hennawi, J. Xavier Prochaska +3
We use spectroscopy of close pairs of quasars to study diffuse gas in the circumgalactic medium (CGM) surrounding a sample of 40 Damped Lya systems (DLAs). The primary sightline in…
A cosmic web filament revealed in Lyman-alpha emission around a luminous high-redshift quasar
Sebastiano Cantalupo, Fabrizio Arrigoni-Battaia, J. Xavier Prochaska +2
Simulations of structure formation in the Universe predict that galaxies are embedded in a "cosmic web", where the majority of baryons reside as rarefied and highly ionized gas. Th…
The spin temperature of high-redshift damped Lyman- systems
N. Kanekar, J. X. Prochaska, A. Smette +10
We report results from a programme aimed at investigating the temperature of neutral gas in high-redshift damped Lyman- absorbers (DLAs). This involved (1) HI 21cm absorption st…
Evidence for Ubiquitous Collimated Galactic-Scale Outflows along the Star-Forming Sequence at z~0.5
Kate H. R. Rubin, J. Xavier Prochaska, David C. Koo +3
We present an analysis of the MgII 2796, 2803 and FeII 2586, 2600 absorption line profiles in individual spectra of 105 galaxies at 0.3<z<1.4. The galaxies, drawn from redshift sur…
Quasars Probing Quasars IV: Joint Constraints on the Circumgalactic Medium from Absorption and Emission
Joseph F. Hennawi, J. Xavier Prochaska
We have constructed a sample of 29 close projected quasar pairs where the background quasar spectrum reveals absorption from optically thick HI gas associated with the foreground q…
A faint optical flash in dust-obscured GRB 080603A - implications for GRB prompt emission mechanisms
C. Guidorzi, S. Kobayashi, D. A. Perley +23
We report the detection of a faint optical flash by the 2-m Faulkes Telescope North simultaneously with the second of two prompt gamma-ray pulses in INTEGRAL gamma-ray burst (GRB)…
