Reconstructing CGM Dust in Nearby Galaxies - 2D Extinction Maps from the LBT LIGHTS Survey
Dust in the circumgalactic medium (CGM) has been detected statistically, using tens of thousands of background galaxies or quasars to measure average attenuation. However, variations in dust properties among galaxies, and the causes of those variations, are lost when stacking. To achieve a sufficient level of precision that enables spatially
