Aligned metal absorbers and the ultraviolet background at the end of reionization
(Oxford University Press, 2018)
We use observations of spatially-aligned C ii, C iv, Si ii, Si iv, and O i absorbers to probe the
slope and intensity of the ultraviolet background (UVB) at z ∼ 6. We accom- plish this by comparing
observations with ...
A deep search for faint galaxies associated with very low-redshift C iv absorbers: A case with cold-accretion characteristics
(The American Astronomical Society, 2013)
Studies of QSO absorber–galaxy connections are often hindered by inadequate information on whether faint/dwarf
galaxies are located near the QSO sight lines. To investigate the contribution of faint galaxies to QSO ...
The high-ion content and kinematics of low-redshift lyman limit systems
(The American Astronomical Society, 2013)
We study the high-ion content and kinematics of the circumgalactic medium around low-redshift galaxies using a sample of 23 Lyman limit systems (LLSs) at 0.08 < z < 0.93 observed with the Cosmic Origins Spectrograph on ...
