Abstract

The circumgalactic/intergalactic medium (CGM/IGM) represents a significant baryon reservoir for sustaining star formation and provides insights into the inflows, outflows, and feedback history of galaxies.  Star-forming dwarf galaxies, with their shallow potential wells, are predicted to drive metal-enriched gas into the CGM/IGM. Therefore, a census of the CGM around dwarf galaxies can provide insights into the stellar feedback. We present highly sensitive absorption-line measurements in quasar sightlines adjacent to 91 isolated dwarf galaxies with a median stellar mass of M_star/M_sun≈8.4 from the Cosmic Ultraviolet Baryon Survey (CUBS). This survey uses HST absorption spectroscopy to access a range of ion transitions from 0.077
