6. Five strong O VI absorbers are seen in the PKS 0405-123 data. The Ly α system at z=0.167 shows several velocity components, including broad absorption at -270 km/s in O VI with no equivalent H I. This could represent gas at T≈10 6-6.5 K associated with gas in a spiral-rich galaxy group. Strong OVI Absorbers * * * = nearest galaxy velocities Savage et al. 2010 ApJ 719, 1526.

14. QSO absorbers near galaxies: Out-flowing Winds or In-falling Fuel ? MANY INVESTIGATORS ASSUME THE ANSWER 1.STARBURST GALAXY WINDS are assumed to be rather ubiquitous and to usually escape into IGM promoters: “BALLISTIC IMPERIALISTS” 2. COLD MODE ACCRETION IN FORM OF HIGH VELOCITY CLOUDS are assumed to be present around all massive halos. Low metallicity gas must be accreted by big galaxies to fuel on-going star formation episodes. promoters: “FEEDING FRENZY ENTHUSIASTS” BUT which of these are being seen as QSO absorbers ? ONLY POSSIBLE TO ANSWER for specific cases AT VERY LOW-z (≤ 0.1) Using QSO/galaxy pairs with COS GTOs + GOs Heckman, Tumlinson, Turnshek, etc.

22. Is Absorbing Gas Infalling or Outflowing? If we can pin down the 3D orientation of the galaxy we can use the velocity information to determine whether absorbing gas in infalling or outflowing, assuming that absorbing gas is moving perpendicular to the galaxy disk (better assumption for outflow than infall). Ways to Determine Orientation: 1.High-res Imaging to look at distribution of H II regions (numbers and integrated luminosities). 2.High-res Spectroscopy to look at Balmer decrement as a function of position in the galaxy.

24. Upcoming COS GTO Observations : Six Probes of a Section of the “Great Wall” (Penton Poster here) UPCOMING OBSERVATIONS: 5 SNR ~30 TARGETS; 4 DWARF GALAXY PROBES; 3 STARBURST GALAXY PROBES ; 2 NEW FEATURELESS BL Lac OBJECTS …AND A PARTRIDGE IN A PEAR TREE! SOLID LINES ARE COS TARGET SIGHTLINES

25. CONCLUSIONS COS is delivering SNR > 15 at R≈ 18,000 for GTOs, four large GO programs (S.Morris, T. Tripp & J. Tumlinson, PIs) and several smaller programs. OVI-ONLY ABSORBERS may be gravitationally-heated GAS IN SPIRAL-RICH GALAXY GROUPS AT T ~ 10 6 K. If so, this gas can account for up to 20% OF BARYONS in low-z Universe. *** Important to find more of these and conduct deep galaxy surveys in their vicinities *** INFALL OR OUTFLOW CAN BE DISTINGUISHED IN SOME CASES for QSO Absorber/Galaxy Pairs where the nearby disk galaxy is at an intermediate inclination angle. *** Important to observe many nearby examples to establish infall/outflow frequencies of QSO absorbers ***
