We measure Doppler shifts of interstellar absorption lines in HST/STIS spectra of individual star clusters in nearby UV-selected galaxies. Values for systemic velocities, which are needed to quantify outflow speeds, are taken from the…

A small survey of the UV-absorbing gas in 12 low-$z$ galaxy groups has been conducted using the Cosmic Origins Spectrograph (COS) on-board the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). Targets were selected from a large, homogeneously-selected sample…

High resolution rest frame UV quasar absorption spectra covering low and high ionization species, as well as the Lyman series lines, provide remarkably detailed information about the gaseous phases of galaxies and their environments. For…

We used ultraviolet spectra from HST/STIS (R=30,000), together with optical spectra from Keck/HIRES (R=45,000), to study the three MgII-selected absorption systems at z=0.9254, 0.9276, and 0.9342 toward the quasar PG 1206+459. A multi-phase…

Quasar absorption-line studies in the ultraviolet (UV) can uniquely probe the nature of the multiphase cool-warm (10^4 < T < 10^6 K) gas in and around galaxy clusters, promising to provide unprecedented insights into 1) interactions between…

Comparison of ISM absorption in the UV spectrum of LS 4825, a B1 Ib-II star d=21+/-5 kpc from the Sun toward l = 1.67 deg and b = -6.63 deg, with ISM absorption toward an aligned foreground star at d < 7.0+/-1.7 kpc, allows us to isolate…

We used HIRES/Keck profiles (R=6 km/s) of MgII and FeII in combination with FOS/HST spectra (R=230 km/s) to place constraints on the physical conditions (metallicities, ionization conditions, and multi-phase distribution) of absorbing gas…

We give two examples of spiral galaxies that show non-circular gas motions in the inner kiloparsecs, from SAURON integral field spectroscopy. We use harmonic decomposition of the velocity field of the ionized gas to study the underlying…

We report the first detection of multiphase gas within a quiescent galaxy beyond $z\approx0$. The observations use the brighter image of doubly lensed QSO HE 0047$-$1756 to probe the ISM of the massive ($M_{\rm star}\approx 10^{11}…

Rest-frame far-ultraviolet (FUV) observations from JWST are revolutionizing our understanding of the high-z galaxies that drove reionization and the mechanisms by which they accomplished it. To fully interpret these observations, we must be…
