Small scale H I structure and the soft X-ray background [PDF]

open access: yes
The observed anticorrelation between diffuse soft X-ray flux and H I column density has been explained as absorption of soft X-rays produced in a hot galactic halo, assuming that the neutral interstellar material is sufficiently clumped to reduce the ...

Analysis of the 3.2–3.3 μm Interstellar Absorption Feature on Three Milky Way Sightlines

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We report new analyses of spectra of the 3.2–3.3 μ m absorption feature observed in the diffuse interstellar medium toward three Milky Way sources: 2MASS J 17470898 − 2829561 (2M1747) and the Quintuplet Cluster, both located in the Galactic center, and ...

The organic component of interstellar grains [PDF]

open access: yes
The 3.4 micron absorption feature observed in the spectrum of a number of Galactic Center (GC) sources indicates the presence of organic molecules in the interstellar medium.

The Densities in Diffuse and Translucent Molecular Clouds: Estimates from Observations of C2 and from Three-dimensional Extinction Maps

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Newly computed collisional rate coefficients for the excitation of C _2 in collisions with H _2 , presented recently by Najar & Kalugina, are significantly larger than the values adopted previously in models for the excitation of the C _2 molecule, a ...

A Study of Interstellar Medium in the Line of Sight of Transient Neutron Star Low-Mass X-ray Binary, MXB 1659-298, by Timing and Spectral Analysis

open access: yesGalaxies
This work is dedicated to the study of interstellar medium (ISM) along the line of sight (LOS) of the transient low-mass X-ray binary, MXB 1659-298, capitalizing the high resolving power of XMM-Newton in the soft energy range.

Loop I/NPS Morphology Predictions in the Ultralong-wavelength Band

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Loop I/North Polar Spur (NPS) is the giant arc structure above the Galactic plane observed at radio wavelengths (≲10 GHz). There has been long-standing debate about its origin. While many people believe that it consists of nearby supernova remnants (SNRs)

Cyclic C4+ as the Carrier of the Diffuse Interstellar Band at 503.9 nm?

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The diffuse interstellar bands (DIBs) have remained a mystery in astronomy since their discovery over a century ago. The only currently known carrier is ${{\rm{C}}}_{60}^{+}$ , responsible for five DIBs, while more than 550 are yet to be interpreted. The

SPHEREx Widefield Infrared Spectral Mapping of Interstellar Ices and Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present some of the first infrared spectral maps acquired by SPHEREx. These maps, which to our knowledge are the largest of their type ever compiled in the near-infrared, reveal multiple strong lines due to interstellar ices and polycyclic aromatic ...

Kinematics of Diffuse Interstellar Clouds :Recent GMRT Results

open access: yes, 2004
A high latitude HI 21 cm-line absorption survey toward extragalactic sources was recently completed using the Giant Meterwave Radio Telescope (GMRT). A total of 104 sources with mod(b) > 15 deg.
