Probing the physical properties of the intergalactic medium using blazars (2021)
Journal Article
Dalton, T., Morris, S. L., Fumagalli, M., & Gatuzz, E. (2021). Probing the physical properties of the intergalactic medium using blazars. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 508(2), 1701-1718. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stab2597

We use Swift blazar spectra to estimate the key intergalactic medium (IGM) properties of hydrogen column density (NHXIGM), metallicity, and temperature over a redshift range of 0.03 ≤ z ≤ 4.7, using a collisional ionization equilibrium model for the...

The relationship between gas and galaxies at z < 1 using the Q0107 quasar triplet (2021)
Journal Article
Beckett, A., Morris, S. L., Fumagalli, M., Bielby, R., Tejos, N., Schaye, J., Jannuzi, B., & Cantalupo, S. (2021). The relationship between gas and galaxies at z < 1 using the Q0107 quasar triplet. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 506(2), 2574-2602. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stab1630

We study the distribution and dynamics of the circumgalactic and intergalactic medium using a dense galaxy survey covering the field around the Q0107 system, a unique z ≈ 1 projected quasar triplet. With full Ly α coverage along all three lines-of-si... Read More about The relationship between gas and galaxies at z < 1 using the Q0107 quasar triplet.

Pair lines of sight observations of multiphase gas bearing O vi in a galaxy environment (2021)
Journal Article
Anshul, P., Narayanan, A., Muzahid, S., Beckett, A., & Morris, S. L. (2021). Pair lines of sight observations of multiphase gas bearing O vi in a galaxy environment. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 503(3), 3243-3261. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stab396

Using HST/COS spectra of the twin quasar lines of sight Q 0107–025A & Q 0107–025B, we report on the physical properties, chemical abundances, and transverse sizes of a multiphase medium in a galaxy field at z = 0.399. The angular separation between t... Read More about Pair lines of sight observations of multiphase gas bearing O vi in a galaxy environment.

Probing the physical properties of the intergalactic medium using gamma-ray bursts (2021)
Journal Article
Dalton, T., Morris, S. L., & Fumagalli, M. (2021). Probing the physical properties of the intergalactic medium using gamma-ray bursts. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 502(4), 5981-5996. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stab335

We use gamma-ray burst (GRB) spectra total continuum absorption to estimate the key intergalactic medium (IGM) properties of hydrogen column density (⁠NHXIGM⁠), metallicity, temperature, and ionization parameter over a redshift range of 1.6 ≤ z ≤ 6.3...
