Evidence for Ubiquitous Collimated Galactic-Scale Outflows along the
  Star-Forming Sequence at z~0.5
  We present an analysis of the MgII 2796, 2803 and FeII 2586, 2600 absorption
line profiles in individual spectra of 105 galaxies at 0.3<z<1.4. The galaxies,
drawn from redshift surveys of the GOODS fields and the Extended Groth Strip,
fully sample the range in star formation rates (SFRs) occupied by the
star-forming sequence with stellar masses log M_*/M_sun > 9.5 at 0.3<z<0.7.
Using the Doppler shifts of the MgII and FeII absorption lines as tracers of
cool gas kinematics, we detect large-scale winds in 66+/-5% of the galaxies.
HST/ACS imaging and our spectral analysis indicate that the outflow detection
rate depends primarily on galaxy orientation: winds are detected in ~89% of
galaxies having inclinations (i) <30 degrees (face-on), while the wind
detection rate is only ~45% in objects having i>50 degrees (edge-on). Combined
with the comparatively weak dependence of the wind detection rate on intrinsic
galaxy properties, this suggests that biconical outflows are ubiquitous in
normal, star-forming galaxies at z~0.5. We find that the wind velocity is
correlated with host galaxy M_* at 3.4-sigma significance, while the equivalent
width of the flow is correlated with host galaxy SFR at 3.5-sigma significance,
suggesting that hosts with higher SFR may launch more material into outflows
and/or generate a larger velocity spread for the absorbing clouds. Assuming
that the gas is launched into dark matter halos with simple, isothermal density
profiles, the wind velocities measured for the bulk of the cool material
(~200-400 km/s) are sufficient to enable escape from the halo potentials only
for the lowest-M_* systems in the sample. However, the outflows typically carry
sufficient energy to reach distances of >50 kpc, and may therefore be a viable
source of cool material for the massive circumgalactic medium observed around
bright galaxies at z~0. [abridged]
