HALO MASS DEPENDENCE OF H I AND O VI ABSORPTION: EVIDENCE FOR DIFFERENTIAL KINEMATICS
2014
Astrophysical Journal
We studied a sample of 14 galaxies (0.1 < z < 0.7) using HST/WFPC2 imaging and high-resolution HST/COS or HST/STIS quasar spectroscopy of Lya, Lyb, OVI1031, and OVI1037 absorption. The galaxies, having 10.8 < log(M/M_solar) < 12.2, lie within D = 300 kpc of quasar sightlines, probing out to D/R_vir = 3. When the full range of galaxy virial masses and D/R_vir of the sample are examined, 40% of the HI absorbing clouds can be inferred to be escaping their host halo. The fraction of bound clouds
