Gaia-assisted discovery of a detached low-ionisation BAL quasar with very large ejection velocities

J. P. U. Fynbo, P. Møller, K. E. Heintz +10

We report on the discovery of a peculiar Broad Absorption Line (BAL) quasar identified in our Gaia-assisted survey of red quasars. The systemic redshift of this quasar was difficul…

MUSE Analysis of Gas around Galaxies (MAGG) -- I: Survey design and the environment of a near pristine gas cloud at z~3.5

Emma K. Lofthouse, Michele Fumagalli, Matteo Fossati +9

We present the design, methods, and first results of the MUSE Analysis of Gas around Galaxies (MAGG) survey, a large programme on the Multi Unit Spectroscopic Explorer (MUSE) instr…

Exploring galaxy dark matter halos across redshifts with strong quasar absorbers

L. Christensen, P. Møller, N. H. P. Rhodin +2

Quasar lines of sight intersect intervening galaxy discs or circum-galactic environments at random impact parameters and potential well depths. Absorption line velocity widths ($Δv…

Sub-damped Lyman alpha systems in the XQ-100 survey I -- Identification and contribution to the cosmological HI budget

Trystyn A. M. Berg, Sara L. Ellison, Ruben Sanchez-Ramirez +7

Sub-damped Lyman alpha systems (subDLAs; HI column densities of 19.0<=logN(HI)<20.3) are rarely included in the cosmic HI census performed at redshifts z>=1.5, yet are expected to…

The Evolution of O I over 3.2 < z < 6.5: Reionization of the Circumgalactic Medium

George D. Becker, Max Pettini, Marc Rafelski +11

We present a survey for metal absorption systems traced by neutral oxygen over . Our survey uses Keck/ESI and VLT/X-Shooter spectra of 199 QSOs with redshifts up to…

Linking gas and galaxies at high redshift: MUSE surveys the environments of six damped Lyman alpha galaxies at z~3

Ruari Mackenzie, Michele Fumagalli, Tom Theuns +12

We present results from a survey of galaxies in the fields of six z>3 Damped Lyman alpha systems (DLAs) using the Multi Unit Spectroscopic Explorer (MUSE) at the Very Large Telesco…
