We present deep Keck/MOSFIRE $H$-band spectroscopic observations covering the [CIII],CIII]$\lambda\lambda1907,1909$ doublet for three $z\sim8$ galaxy candidates in the AEGIS field. Along with non-detections in two galaxies, we obtain one of…

The shallow potential wells of star-forming dwarf galaxies make their surrounding circumgalactic and intergalactic medium (CGM/IGM) sensitive laboratories for studying the inflows and outflows thought to regulate galaxy evolution. We…

With high resolution (0.46kpc/h), adaptive mesh-refinement Eulerian cosmological hydrodynamic simulations we compute properties of O VI and O VII absorbers from the warm-hot intergalactic medium (WHIM). Our new simulations are in broad…

We report on the detection of the [CII] 157.7 $\mu$m emission from the Lyman break galaxy (LBG) MACS0416_Y1 at z = 8.3113, by using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA). The luminosity ratio of [OIII] 88 $\mu$m (from…

We report on observations of several optical emission lines toward a variety of newly revealed faint, large-scale Halpha-emitting regions in the Galaxy. The lines include [NII] 6583, [NII] 5755, [SII] 6716, [OIII] 5007, and HeI 5876…

Rest-frame 0.48-1.1 micron emission line strengths and molecular gas mass (H_2) upper limits for 3 luminous infrared sources - the hyperluminous infrared galaxies IR F09105+4108 (z=0.44), IR F15307+3252 (z=0.93), and the optically-selected…

We present a study of interstellar medium in the host galaxies of 9 QSOs at 0.1<z<0.2 with blackhole masses of $3\times10^7\,M_\odot$ to $3\times10^9\,M_\odot$ based on the far-IR spectroscopy taken with {\it Herschel Space Observatory}. We…

The semi-forbidden CIII] $\lambda\lambda$1907,1909 doublet is a key tracer of high-ionization emission in the early universe. We present a study of CIII] emission in galaxies at z=5-7, using publicly available JWST/NIRSpec prism data from…

The flux upper limits of the diffuse gamma rays, from the inner and outer Galactic planes, are revised by factors of 4.0$\sim$3.7 for mode energies 3$\sim$10 TeV, respectively, by using the simulation results of the effective area ratios…

To probe the distribution and physical characteristics of interstellar gas at temperatures T ~ 3e5 K in the disk of the Milky Way, we have used the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer (FUSE) to observe absorption lines of OVI toward 148…

Diffuse Galactic gamma-ray emission is produced in interactions of cosmic rays with gas and ambient photon fields and thus provides us with an indirect measurement of cosmic rays in various locations in the Galaxy. The diffuse gamma-ray…
