Observations of a Magellanic Corona
Dhanesh Krishnarao, Andrew J. Fox, Elena D'Onghia +6
The Large and Small Magellanic Clouds (LMC/SMC) are the closest major satellite galaxies of the Milky Way. They are likely on their first passage on an infalling orbit towards our…
Circumgalactic gas at its extreme: tidal gas streams around the Whale galaxy NGC 4631 explored with HST/COS
P. Richter, B. Winkel, B. P. Wakker +8
We present a detailed analysis of the absorption properties of one of the tidal gas streams around the Whale galaxy NGC4631 in the direction of the quasar 2MASSJ12421031+3214268. O…
New constraints on the nature and origin of the Leading Arm of the Magellanic Stream
P. Richter, A. J. Fox, B. P. Wakker +5
We present a new precision measurement of gas-phase abundances of S, O, N, Si, Fe, P, Al, Ca as well as molecular hydrogen (H_2) in the Leading Arm (region II, LAII) of the Magella…
Revealing the Ionization Properties of the Magellanic Stream using Optical Emission
K. A. Barger, G. J. Madsen, A. J. Fox +10
The Magellanic Stream, a gaseous tail that trails behind the Magellanic Clouds, could replenish the Milky Way with a tremendous amount of gas if it reaches the Galactic disk before…
The Second Data Release of the KODIAQ Survey
John M. O'Meara, Nicolas Lehner, J. Christopher Howk +5
We present and make publicly available the second data release (DR2) of the Keck Observatory Database of Ionized Absorption toward Quasars (KODIAQ) survey. KODIAQ DR2 consists of a…
