INVESTIGATION OF DIFFUSE INTERSTELLAR BANDS OF ORGANIC MOLECULES IN THE SPECTRA OF CEPHEID STARS
We describe an effective method of investigation of the Diffuse Interstellar Bands (DIBs) in the spectra of Cepheid stars. DIBs are believed to originate from the absorption of such carriers as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in the interstellar gaseous

Diffuse Interstellar Bands – The Unidentified Part of the Interstellar Absorption Spectrum [PDF]
The unidentified (since 1921) diffuse interstellar bands (DIBs) are discussed together with their relations to other interstellar absorptions sucn as: continuous extinction, polarization and atomic or molecular absorption lines. It is shown that DIBs do not form the absorption spectrum of one agent, but probably of several (3 or more).

Electronic spectroscopy of open-chain and aromatic hydrocarbon cations in neon matrices [PDF]
Considerable scientific interest has been devoted to the so-called diffuse interstellar bands (DIBs)—hundreds of absorption features of different strength and width, located in the visible and near infrared, and arising from the interstellar medium ...

Chemical Composition of Interstellar Material
Abundances in Interstellar clouds, as determined from interstellar absorption lines, are discussed first, including abundances in ‘abnormal’ (high-velocity) clouds.

A Reexamination of Phosphorus and Chlorine Depletions in the Diffuse Interstellar Medium
We present a comprehensive examination of interstellar P and Cl abundances based on an analysis of archival spectra acquired with the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph of the Hubble Space Telescope and the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer ...

Electronic spectroscopy of cold cations in a 22-pole trap by indirect methods [PDF]
The confining capabilities of a 22-pole ion trap have been employed to mea- sure electronic spectra of cations of astrophysical relevance. The ion trap sits on the head of a closed cycle cryostat, enabling collisional cooling of the confined ions with

Interstellar Matter Structure along the Line of Sight to Cyg X-1
High-resolution spectra (R = 60 000) of Cyg X-1 = V1357 Cyg obtained with the NES echelle spectrograph of the Russian 6 meter telescope (3950–6690 Å) were used to study narrow interstellar absorption lines.

Interstellar Absorption of Some Be Stars [PDF]
It is well known that the intrinsic colors of Be stars are not the same as those of “normal” B stars and they are often redder. So interstellar absorption of Be stars determined from photometric indices may be overestimated. In order to avoid this, a method often used to determine the interstellar absorption of Be stars is based on the ultraviolet ...
