Impacts of the Metagalactic Ultraviolet Background on Circumgalactic Medium Absorption Systems
Elias Taira, Claire Kopenhafer, Brian W. Oshea +5
Among the many different pieces of physics that go into simulations of the circumgalactic medium (CGM), the metagalactic ultraviolet background (UVB) plays a significant role in de…
