Abstract: Using integral field spectroscopy, we explore the disk-halo interface, or the inner circumgalactic medium (CGM), of individual galaxies by constructing and analyzing emission-line maps for a large sample (72) of normal, low-redshift galaxies spanning three orders of magnitude in stellar mass and four orders in star formation rate (SFR). We find a steep turnover occurring at $(1-2) R_e$ in the H$\alpha$, [O {\small II}], and [O {\small III}] line emission radial profiles. Beyond this radius, the slope of the line emission radial profiles becomes shallower as the SFR of the central galaxy decreases, which might reflect the strength of the feedback processes. The line emission fluxes at large radius ($(5-10) R_e$ or $\sim (0.1-0.25)r_{\rm vir}$) correlate with the galaxy's SFR, but not with its stellar mass. These findings suggest that ionizing photons escaping from star-forming regions in the central galaxy account for the observed emission line fluxes from the inner CGM, with escape fractions inferred from the [O {\small III}] and [O {\small II}] ratio. Different state-of-the-art theoretical models do not agree on the predicted dependence of cool gas on the SFR of the central galaxies, highlighting the importance of CGM emission line measurements to distinguish between different subgrid models for star formation and feedback processes.

"We’re delighted to announce the first #GalaxyZoo workflow to include images from the NSF-DOE Vera C #Rubin Observatory, using #galaxies drawn from its first Data Preview": https://blog.galaxyzoo.org/2026/05/12/a-first-galaxy-zoorubin-project/ - "[t]he new workflow went live on the site just now, but with only 10,359 subjects it won’t stick around for long, so do jump in and get classifying."
