The CGM2 Survey: Quenching and the Transformation of the Circumgalactic Medium

This study addresses how the incidence rate of strong O vi absorbers in a galaxy’s circumgalactic medium (CGM) depends on galaxy mass and, independently, on the amount of star formation in the galaxy. We use Hubble Space Telescope/Cosmic Origins Spectrograph absorption spectroscopy of quasars to mea...
