Abstract: The circumgalactic medium is the turbulent interface between galaxies and the intergalactic medium. I will present empirical measurements of its turbulent motions, the insights they offer into AGN feedback and the baryon cycle, and our use of simulations and forward modeling to interpret these observations robustly.
