How Gas Accretion Feeds Galactic Disks
Stephanie H. Ho, Crystal L. Martin, Monica L. Turner
Numerous observations indicate that galaxies need a continuous gas supply to fuel star formation and explain the star formation history. However, direct observational evidence of g…
Heavy Element Absorption Systems at : Metal-Poor Neutral Gas and a Diminishing Signature of Highly Ionized Circumgalactic Matter
T. J. Cooper, R. A. Simcoe, K. L. Cooksey +5
Ratios of different ions of the same element encode ionization information independently from relative abundances in quasar absorption line systems, crucial for understanding the m…
An 800-million-solar-mass black hole in a significantly neutral Universe at redshift 7.5
E. Bañados, B. P. Venemans, C. Mazzucchelli +15
Quasars are the most luminous non-transient objects known and as a result they enable studies of the Universe at the earliest cosmic epochs. Despite extensive efforts, however, the…
The Sunburst Arc: Direct Lyman α escape observed in the brightest known lensed galaxy
T. Emil Rivera-Thorsen, Håkon Dahle, Max Gronke +6
We present rest-frame ultraviolet and optical spectroscopy of the brightest lensed galaxy yet discovered, at redshift z = 2.4. This source reveals a characteristic, triple-peaked L…
A comparison of observed and simulated absorption from HI, CIV, and SiIV around star-forming galaxies suggests redshift-space distortions are due to inflows
Monica L. Turner, Joop Schaye, Robert A. Crain +4
We study HI and metal-line absorption around star-forming galaxies by comparing an analysis of data from the Keck Baryonic Structure Survey to mock spectra generated fr…
Mg II Absorption at 2<z<7 with Magellan/FIRE, III. Full Statistics of Absorption Towards 100 High-Redshift QSOs
Shi-Fan S. Chen, Robert A. Simcoe, Paul Torrey +12
We present final statistics from a survey for intervening MgII absorption towards 100 quasars with emission redshifts between and . Using infrared spectra from Mag…
Observations of metals in the intergalactic medium and comparison to the EAGLE simulations
Monica L. Turner, Joop Schaye, Robert A. Crain +2
We study the intergalactic medium (IGM) by comparing new, high-quality absorption spectra of eight QSOs with , to virtual observatio…
Ubiquitous giant Ly nebulae around the brightest quasars at revealed with MUSE
Elena Borisova, Sebastiano Cantalupo, Simon J. Lilly +17
Direct Ly imaging of intergalactic gas at has recently revealed giant cosmological structures around quasars, e.g. the Slug Nebula (Cantalupo et al. 2014). Despite the…
A young star-forming galaxy at z = 3.5 with an extended Ly\, halo seen with MUSE
Vera Patrício, Johan Richard, Anne Verhamme +12
Spatially resolved studies of high redshift galaxies, an essential insight into galaxy formation processes, have been mostly limited to stacking or unusually bright objects. We pre…
Detection of hot, metal-enriched outflowing gas around 2.3 star-forming galaxies in the Keck Baryonic Structure Survey
Monica L. Turner, Joop Schaye, Charles C. Steidel +2
We use quasar absorption lines to study the physical conditions in the circumgalactic medium of redshift star-forming galaxies taken from the Keck Baryonic Structure…
MUSE observations of the lensing cluster SMACSJ2031.8-4036: new constraints on the mass distribution in the cluster core
J. Richard, V. Patricio, J. Martinez +10
We present new observations of the lensing cluster SMACSJ2031.8-4036 obtained with the MUSE integral field spectrograph as part of its commissioning on the Very Large Telescope. By…
Strong Nebular Line Ratios in the Spectra of z~2-3 Star-forming Galaxies: First Results from KBSS-MOSFIRE
C. C. Steidel, G. C. Rudie, A. L. Strom +11
We present initial results of a deep near-IR spectroscopic survey covering the 15 fields of the Keck Baryonic Structure Survey (KBSS) using MOSFIRE on the Keck 1 telescope, focusin…

Monica L. Turner, Joop Schaye, Charles C. Steidel +2
(Abridged) We study metal absorption around 854 2.4 star-forming galaxies taken from the Keck Baryonic Structure Survey (KBSS). The galaxies examined in this work lie in…
The ACS Fornax Cluster Survey. VI. The Nuclei of Early-Type Galaxies in the Fornax Cluster
Monica L. Turner, Patrick Cote, Laura Ferrarese +5
The Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) Fornax Cluster Survey is a Hubble Space Telescope program to image 43 early-type galaxies in the Fornax cluster, using the F475W and F850LP ba…
A Limit on the Number of Isolated Neutron Stars Detected in the ROSAT All-Sky Survey Bright Source Catalog
Monica L. Turner, Robert E. Rutledge, Ryan Letcavage +2
Using new and archival observations made with the Swift satellite and other facilities, we examine 147 X-ray sources selected from the ROSAT All-Sky-Survey Bright Source Catalog (R…
