The cold circumgalactic environment of MAMMOTH-I: dynamically cold gas in the core of an Enormous Ly-alpha Nebula
Bjorn Emonts, Zheng Cai, Xavier Prochaska +2
The MAMMOTH-I Nebula at redshift 2.3 is one of the largest known Ly-alpha nebulae in the Universe, spanning ~440 kpc. Enormous Ly-alpha nebulae like MAMMOTH-I typically trace the d…
High-z dusty star-forming galaxies: a top-heavy initial mass function?
Zhen-Yi Cai, Gianfranco De Zotti, Matteo Bonato
Recent estimates point to abundances of z > 4 sub-millimeter (sub-mm) galaxies far above model predictions. The matter is still debated. According to some analyses the excess may b…
3D Distribution Map of HI Gas and Galaxies Around an Enormous Ly Nebula and Three QSOs at Revealed by the HI Tomographic Mapping Technique
Shiro Mukae, Masami Ouchi, Zheng Cai +21
We present an IGM HI tomography map in a survey volume of (cMpc) centered at MAMMOTH-1 nebula and three neighbouring…
Color dependence of clustering of massive galaxies at 0.52.5: similar spatial distributions between green valley galaxies and AGNs
Xiaozhi Lin, Guanwen Fang, Zhen-Yi Cai +3
We present a measurement of the spatial clustering of rest-frame UV-selected massive galaxies at in the COSMOS/UltraVISTA field. Considering four separate redshi…
Evolution of the Cool Gas in the Circumgalactic Medium (CGM) of Massive Halos -- A Keck Cosmic Web Imager (KCWI) Survey of Ly Emission around QSOs at
Zheng Cai, Sebastiano Cantalupo, J. Xavier Prochaska +6
Motivated by the recent discovery of the near-ubiquity of Ly emission around QSOs, we performed a systematic study of QSO circumgalactic Ly emission at $z\appro…
Microwave Spectro-Polarimetry of Matter and Radiation across Space and Time
Jacques Delabrouille, Maximilian H. Abitbol, Nabila Aghanim +77
This paper discusses the science case for a sensitive spectro-polarimetric survey of the microwave sky. Such a survey would provide a tomographic and dynamic census of the three-di…
The Third Data Release of the Beijing-Arizona Sky Survey
Hu Zou, Xu Zhou, Xiaohui Fan +45
The Beijing-Arizona Sky Survey (BASS) is a wide and deep imaging survey to cover a 5400 deg area in the Northern Galactic Cap with the 2.3m Bok telescope using two filters (…
Astro2020 APC White Paper: The MegaMapper: a z > 2 spectroscopic instrument for the study of Inflation and Dark Energy
David J. Schlegel, Juna A. Kollmeier, Greg Aldering +74
MegaMapper is a proposed ground-based experiment to measure Inflation parameters and Dark Energy from galaxy redshifts at 2<z<5. A 6.5-m Magellan telescope will be coupled with DES…
Extragalactic astrophysics with next-generation CMB experiments
G. De Zotti, M. Bonato, M. Negrello +7
Planck, SPT and ACT surveys have clearly demonstrated that Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) experiments, while optimised for cosmological measurements, have made important contrib…
The Radio Universe at Low Surface Brightness: Feedback & accretion in the circumgalactic medium
Bjorn Emonts, Mark Lacy, Kristina Nyland +12
Massive galaxies at high-z are known to co-evolve with their circumgalactic medium (CGM). If we want to truly understand the role of the CGM in the early evolution of galaxies and…
Initial results from a systematic search for changing-look active galactic nuclei selected via mid-infrared variability
Zhenfeng Sheng, Tinggui Wang, Ning Jiang +6
Changing look active-galatic-nuclei (CL AGNs) can yield considerable insight into accretion physics as well as the co-evolution of black holes and their host galaxies. A large samp…
Inflation and Dark Energy from spectroscopy at
Simone Ferraro, Michael J. Wilson, Muntazir Abidi +140
The expansion of the Universe is understood to have accelerated during two epochs: in its very first moments during a period of Inflation and much more recently, at , when D…
Ultraviolet Perspectives on Diffuse Gas in the Largest Cosmic Structures
Joseph N. Burchett, Daisuke Nagai, Iryna Butsky +31
The past decade has seen an explosion of discoveries and new insights into the diffuse gas within galaxies, galaxy clusters, and the filaments composing the Cosmic Web. A new decad…
Discovery of a Lya emitting dark-cloud within z ~ 2.8 SMMJ02399-0136 system
Qiong Li, Zheng Cai, J. Xavier Prochaska +9
We present Keck/KCWI integral field spectrograph observations of the complex system surrounding SMM J023990136 (a lensed sub-mm galaxy), including an associated Ly$\rm α…
Origins Space Telescope: predictions for far-IR spectroscopic surveys
Matteo Bonato, Gianfranco De Zotti, David Leisawitz +9
We illustrate the extraordinary potential of the (far-IR) Origins Survey Spectrometer (OSS) on board the Origins Space Telescope (OST) to address a variety of open issues on the co…
