The Thermal Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Effect from Massive, Quiescent 0.5 $\leq$
  z $\leq$ 1.5 Galaxies
  We use combined South Pole Telescope (SPT)+Planck temperature maps to analyze
the circumgalactic medium (CGM) encompassing 138,235 massive, quiescent 0.5
$\leq$ z $\leq$ 1.5 galaxies selected from data from the Dark Energy Survey
(DES) and Wide-Field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE). Images centered on these
galaxies were cut from the 1.85 arcmin resolution maps with frequency bands at
95, 150, and 220 GHz. The images were stacked, filtered, and fit with a
gray-body dust model to isolate the thermal Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (tSZ) signal,
which is proportional to the total energy contained in the CGM of the galaxies.
We separate these $M_{\star} = 10^{10.9} M_\odot$ - $10^{12} M_\odot$ galaxies
into 0.1 dex stellar mass bins, detecting tSZ per bin up to $5.6\sigma$ and a
total signal-to-noise ratio of $10.1\sigma$. We also detect dust with an
overall signal-to-noise ratio of $9.8\sigma$, which overwhelms the tSZ at
150GHz more than in other lower-redshift studies. We correct for the $0.16$ dex
uncertainty in the stellar mass measurements by parameter fitting for an
unconvolved power-law energy-mass relation, $E_{\rm therm} = E_{\rm therm,peak}
\left(M_\star/M_{\star,{\rm peak}} \right)^\alpha$, with the peak stellar mass
distribution of our selected galaxies defined as $M_{\star,{\rm peak}}= 2.3
\times 10^{11} M_\odot$. This yields an $E_{\rm therm,peak}=
5.98_{-1.00}^{+1.02} \times 10^{60}$ erg and $\alpha=3.77_{-0.74}^{+0.60}$.
These are consistent with $z \approx 0$ observations and within the limits of
moderate models of active galactic nuclei (AGN) feedback. We also compute the
radial profile of our full sample, which is similar to that recently measured
at lower-redshift by Schaan et al. (2021).
