Characterizing the Circumgalactic Medium of Nearby Galaxies with HST/COS and HST/STIS Absorption-Line Spectroscopy

John T. Stocke, Brian A. Keeney, Charles W. Danforth +5

The Circumgalactic Medium (CGM) of late-type galaxies is characterized using UV spectroscopy of 11 targeted QSO/galaxy pairs at z < 0.02 with the Hubble Space Telescope Cosmic Orig…

The Ultraviolet Radiation Environment Around M dwarf Exoplanet Host Stars

Kevin France, Cynthia S. Froning, Jeffrey L. Linsky +8

The spectral and temporal behavior of exoplanet host stars is a critical input to models of the chemistry and evolution of planetary atmospheres. At present, little observational o…

Unique Astrophysics in the Lyman Ultraviolet

Jason Tumlinson, Alessandra Aloisi, Gerard Kriss +24

There is unique and groundbreaking science to be done with a new generation of UV spectrographs that cover wavelengths in the "Lyman Ultraviolet" (LUV; 912 - 1216 Ang). There is no…

"Invisible AGN" I: Sample Selection and Optical/Near-IR Spectral Energy Distributions

T. Yan, J. T. Stocke, J. Darling +1

In order to find more examples of the elusive high-redshift molecular absorbers, we have embarked on a systematic discovery program for highly obscured, radio-loud "invisible AGN"…

On the Significance of Absorption Features in HST/COS Data

Brian A. Keeney, Charles W. Danforth, John T. Stocke +2

We present empirical scaling relations for the significance of absorption features detected in medium resolution, far-UV spectra obtained with the Cosmic Origins Spectrograph (COS)…

The Properties of Two Low Redshift O VI Absorbers and Their Associated Galaxies Toward 3C 263

B. Savage, T. -S. Kim, B. Keeney +3

Ultraviolet observations of the QSO 3C 263 (zem = 0.652) with COS and FUSE reveal O VI absorption systems at z = 0.06342 and 0.14072 . WIYN multi-object spectrograph observations p…
