Galactic Outflows And Their Correlations With Galaxy Properties At 0.8 < Z < 1.6, Lindsey Whiting

Theses and Dissertations

Out

ows have been shown to be ubiquitous in galaxies between z = 1 and z=2,

and many models and observations have attempted to correlate the absorption line

properties of these out

ows with morphological characteristics of their host galaxies.

In this study, we examined the spectra of 71 galaxies with redshifts 1< z<2, paying

particular attention to the FeII and MgII absorption lines. We plotted the equivalent

width, velocity, and maximum velocity of the absorption features against various

physical properties of the galaxies, obtained from catalogues created by Skelton et

al., (2014) and van der Wel et al., (2012). We conrmed …
