We analyze both hydrogen and metal absorption systems in the inter-galactic medium (IGM) around star forming galaxies in cosmological chemodynamical simulations. We compare the absorption features among simulations with different strength of supernovae feedback, and study what features are sensitive to the existence of outflow from star forming galaxies, i.e. galactic wind. We find that the strength of HI absorption is almost unaffected by galactic wind. On the other hand, the metal absorptions are sensitive to the existence of galactic wind, and our simulations demonstrate that OVI is a good tracer for the signature of galactic wind.
