Abstract (from CDS):

Feedback is widely recognized as an essential condition for Lyman continuum (LyC) escape in star-forming galaxies. However, the mechanisms by which galactic outflows clear neutral gas and dust remain unclear. In this paper, we model the Mg II 2796 Å, 2804 Å absorption and emission lines in 29 galaxies taken from the Low-z LyC Survey to investigate the impact of (radiation and mechanical) feedback on LyC escape. Using constraints on Mg+ and photoionization models, we map the outflows' neutral hydrogen content and predict ${f}_{{\rm{esc}}}^{{\rm{LyC}}}$ with a multiphase wind model. We measure mass-, momentum, and energy loading factors for the neutral winds, which carry up to 10% of the momentum and 1% of the energy in star formation rate (SFR)-based deposition rates. We use spectral energy distribution template fitting to determine the relative ages of stellar populations, allowing us to identify radiation feedback dominant systems. We then examine feedback related properties (stellar age, loading factors, etc.) under conditions that optimize feedback efficiency, specifically high-SFR surface density and compactness. Our findings indicate that the strongest leakers are radiation feedback dominant, lack deep Mg II absorption features, but have extended broad components in higher-ionization lines like [O III] 5007 Å, as observed by Amorín et al. In contrast, galaxies experiencing supernovae feedback typically exhibit weaker ${f}_{{\rm{esc}}}^{{\rm{LyC}}}$ and show evidence of outflows in both Mg II and higher-ionization lines. We attribute these findings to enhanced LyC escape facilitated by turbulence and cloud fragmentation in intense radiation fields, prolonged in low-metallicity environments experiencing delayed supernova feedback.
