MUSE Analysis of Gas around Galaxies (MAGG) - II: Metal-enriched halo gas around z ∼ 1 galaxies (2020)
Journal Article
Dutta, R., Fumagalli, M., Fossati, M., Lofthouse, E. K., Prochaska, J. X., Battaia, F. A., …O’Meara, J. M. (2020). MUSE Analysis of Gas around Galaxies (MAGG) - II: Metal-enriched halo gas around z ∼ 1 galaxies. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 499(4), 5022-5046. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/staa3147

We present a study of the metal-enriched cool halo gas traced by Mg II absorption around 228 galaxies at z ∼ 0.8–1.5 within 28 quasar fields from the MUSE Analysis of Gas around Galaxies survey. We observe no significant evolution in the Mg II equiva... Read More about MUSE Analysis of Gas around Galaxies (MAGG) - II: Metal-enriched halo gas around z ∼ 1 galaxies.

Quasar Sightline and Galaxy Evolution (QSAGE) survey - II. Galaxy overdensities around UV luminous quasars at z = 1-2 (2020)
Journal Article
Stott, J., Bielby, R., Cullen, F., Burchett, J., Tejos, N., Fumagalli, M., …Prochaska, J. (2020). Quasar Sightline and Galaxy Evolution (QSAGE) survey - II. Galaxy overdensities around UV luminous quasars at z = 1-2. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 497(3), 3083-3096. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/staa2096

We demonstrate that the UV brightest quasars at z = 1–2 live in overdense environments. This is based on an analysis of deep Hubble Space Telescope WFC3 G141 grism spectroscopy of the galaxies along the lines-of-sight to UV luminous quasars in the re...

Into the Lyα jungle: exploring the circumgalactic medium of galaxies at z ∼ 4 − 5 with MUSE (2020)
Journal Article
Bielby, R. M., Fumagalli, M., Fossati, M., Rafelski, M., Oppenheimer, B., Cantalupo, S., …Peroux, C. (2020). Into the Lyα jungle: exploring the circumgalactic medium of galaxies at z ∼ 4 − 5 with MUSE. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 493(4), 5336-5356. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/staa546

We present a study of the galaxy environment of 9 strong H I+C IV absorption line systems (16.2 < log(N(HI)) < 21.2) spanning a wide range in metallicity at z ∼ 4 − 5, using MUSE integral field and X-Shooter spectroscopic data collected in a z ≈ 5.26...
