COS-Dwarfs Dataset

This document describes the COS-Dwarfs dataset.

Sources

The COS-Dwarfs Survey is a set of HST/COS spectra published by Bordoloi et al. (2014) for the analysis of the circumgalactic medium of z~0 dwarf galaxies. The quasars are a set of sources from the SDSS with zem ~ 0.3 to 1 and bright in the FUV.

Meta Data

There is little additional meta data. Use pyigm to access the measurements from the COS-Dwarfs survey.

Spectra

The HST/COS spectra are wavelength and flux calibrated spectra using CALCOS and then coadded with proprietary code (see Tumlinson et al. 2013).
