Regulation of Star Formation by a Hot Circumgalactic Medium

Galactic outflows driven by supernovae (SNe) are thought to be a powerful regulator of a galaxy’s star-forming efficiency. Mass, energy, and metal outflows ( η _M , η _E , and η _Z , here normalized by the star formation rate, the SNe energy, and metal production rates, respectively) shape galaxy pr...
