Galactic Winds and the Missing Baryons
Abstract
Galaxy-scale winds are poised to solve a number of ailments in modern cosmology. However, we know little about trends of wind properties with host galaxy properties. In an attempt to quantify the impact of galactic winds on their host galaxies and the environment, we are conducting a systematic survey of star-forming and active galaxies at z = 0-0.5. Preliminary results on the star-forming galaxies are presented.
