Extended Data Fig. 7: Magellanic Corona sample versus Magellanic Stream sample.

From: Observations of a Magellanic Corona

Extended Data Fig. 7

Map of measured C IV column density shown in Magellanic coordinates of our collisionally ionized Magellanic sample (a; photoionized phase removed) and previous measurements of all C IV absorption in a survey of the Magellanic Stream10 (b). Squares and triangles in the lower panel mark sightlines that were flagged as belonging to the Magellanic Bridge and Stream, respectively, whereas other sightlines are marked with a plus symbol. Open symbols show upper limits. Symbols with a dotted white outline in the upper panel denote sightlines that have overlap with the previous survey10, whereas those without a white outline are unique to this work.
