ZFOURGE/CANDELS: On the Evolution of M* Galaxy Progenitors from z=3 to 0.5
Casey Papovich, I. Labbé, R. Quadri +38
Galaxies with stellar masses near M* contain the majority of stellar mass in the universe, and are therefore of special interest in the study of galaxy evolution. The Milky Way (MW…
Probing the circumgalactic medium of active galactic nuclei with background quasars
Glenn G. Kacprzak, Christopher W. Churchill, Michael T. Murphy +1
We performed a detailed study of the extended cool gas, traced by MgII absorption [~Å], surrounding 14 narrow-line active galactic nuclei (AGNs) at 0.12<z<0.22 us…
KECK/MOSFIRE spectroscopic confirmation of a Virgo-like cluster ancestor at z=2.095
T. -T. Yuan, Themiya Nanayakkara, Glenn G. Kacprzak +8
We present the spectroscopic confirmation of a galaxy cluster at in the COSMOS field. This galaxy cluster was first reported in the ZFOURGE survey as harboring evolved ma…
Lyman Alpha and MgII as Probes of Galaxies and their Environments
Luke A. Barnes, Thibault Garel, Glenn G. Kacprzak
Lyα emission, Lyα absorption and MgII absorption are powerful tracers of neutral hydrogen. Hydrogen is the most abundant element in the universe and plays a central role in galaxy…
Direct Insights into Observational Absorption Line Analysis Methods of the Circumgalactic Medium Using Cosmological Simulations
Christopher W. Churchill, Jacob R. Vander Vliet, Sebastian Trujillo-Gomez +2
We study the circumgalactic medium (CGM) of a z=0.54 simulated dwarf galaxy using hydroART simulations. We present our analysis methods, which emulate observations, including objec…
Halo Mass Dependence of HI and OVI Absorption: Evidence for Differential Kinematics
Nigel L. Mathes, Christopher W. Churchill, Glenn G. Kacprzak +4
We studied a sample of 14 galaxies (0.1 < z < 0.7) using HST/WFPC2 imaging and high-resolution HST/COS or HST/STIS quasar spectroscopy of Lya, Lyb, OVI1031, and OVI1037 absorption.…
