Measuring radial flows in disc galaxies

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Numerous theoretical studies suggest that gas accretion from the intergalactic medium is essential to feed star formation in galaxies throughout cosmic time. However, the mechanism of gas accretion remains poorly understood, as direct evidence is lacking.

Hot gas in the Local Group and low-redshift intergalactic medium [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
There is increasing observational evidence that hot, highly ionized interstellar and intergalactic gas plays a significant role in the evolution of galaxies in the local universe. The primary spectral diagnostics of the warm-hot interstellar/intergalactic medium are ultraviolet and X-ray absorption lines of O VI and O VII.

The Evolution of Galaxies and Clusters at High Spatial Resolution with Advanced X-ray Imaging Satellite (AXIS)

open access: yesUniverse
Stellar and black hole feedback heat and disperse surrounding cold gas clouds, launching gas flows off circumnuclear and galactic disks, producing a dynamic interstellar medium.

Discovery of a Large-scale H i Plume in the NGC 7194 Group

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
We present the discovery of a new H i structure in the NGC 7194 group from the observations using the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array. NGC 7194 group is a nearby ( z ∼ 0.027) small galaxy group with five quiescent members.

The Circumgalactic Medium with Local Universe Fast Radio Bursts: Evidence of Strong Active Galactic Nucleus Feedback in a Massive Elliptical Galaxy

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
Modern cosmology and galaxy formation rely on an understanding of how cosmic baryons are distributed, a significant portion of which exists in the diffuse gas confined to halos. Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are a promising probe of the Universe’s ionized gas.

Interpretable machine learning of halo gas density profiles: a sensitivity analysis of cosmological hydrodynamical simulations

open access: yesThe Open Journal of Astrophysics
Stellar and AGN-driven feedback processes affect the distribution of gas on a wide range of scales, from within galaxies well into the intergalactic medium. Yet, it remains unclear how feedback, through its connection to key galaxy properties, shapes the

Accretion by the Galaxy

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2012
Cosmology requires at least half of the baryons in the Universe to be in the intergalactic medium, much of which is believed to form hot coronae around galaxies. Star-forming galaxies must be accreting from their coronae.

Spatially and Dynamically Extended Molecular Gas in Stephan’s Quintet Revealed by ALMA CO(1–0) Total Power Mapping

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array Total Power CO(1–0) mapping of Stephan’s Quintet (SQ), a prototypical compact galaxy group, with a uniform noise level at a spatial scale of ∼25 kpc.
