Paper day! arxiv.org/abs/2401.16469 We use the background galaxies in the SAGA survey to infer the efficiency of winds driven by star formation in low-mass galaxies. We find a mass-loading factor of ~1: consistent with direct observations, but smaller than what some sims predict at these masses.
congrats! this business of low mass-loading factors vs. models should make people think long and hard...
