et al.

Abstract: While most galaxies live in group environments where they undergo an accelerated evolution, the characteristics of their circumgalactic medium (CGM) remain uncertain. We present an analysis of the CGM of two galaxy groups in different stages of interaction: (G1) a close pair of galaxies (z = 0.043) separated by 87 kpc that do not show signs of interactions and (G2) four merging galaxies (z = 0.098) separated by 10 kpc. We present spatially-resolved Keck/KCWI galaxy observations and HST/COS quasar spectra (G1 a… Show more
