Hydrogen wall and heliosheath Lyman-alpha absorption toward nearby stars: possible constraints on the heliospheric interface plasma flow

open access: yes, 2002
In this paper, we study heliospheric Ly-$\alpha$ absorption toward nearby stars in different lines of sight. We use the Baranov-Malama model of the solar wind interaction with a two-component (charged component and H atoms) interstellar medium ...

Microstructure of the Local Interstellar Cloud and the Identification of the Hyades Cloud [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
We analyze high-resolution UV spectra of the Mg II h and k lines for 18 members of the Hyades Cluster to study inhomogeneity along these proximate lines of sight.

Observations of Multiphase, High-velocity, Shocked Gas in the Vela Supernova Remnant

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present an analysis of high-resolution far-UV archival spectra obtained with the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph on the Hubble Space Telescope of the star HD 75309, which probes high-velocity shocked gas in the Vela supernova remnant (SNR).

Absorption by Spinning Dust: a Contaminant for High-Redshift 21 cm Observations

open access: yes, 2018
Spinning dust grains in front of the bright Galactic synchrotron background can produce a weak absorption signal that could affect measurements of high redshift 21 cm absorption.

Observations of interstellar Lyman-α absorption [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1970
Absorption at the Lyman-α transition from interstellar neutral hydrogen has been observed in the ultraviolet spectra of 18 nearby O and B stars. Radiation damping is the dominant cause of line broadening, which makes the derived line-of-sight column densities proportional to the square of the observed equivalent widths.

Distribution of Interstellar Reddening Material in the Galactic Plane [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 1987
By using the recently determined color excess and distance data of classical cepheids by Kim(1985), the distribution of interstellar reddening material was studied to see the general picture of the average rate of interstellar absorption out to about 7 ...

GHRS and ORFEUS-II Observations of the Highly Ionized Interstellar Medium Toward ESO141-055 [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
We present Goddard High Resolution Spectrograph and ORFEUS-II measurements of Si IV, CIV, N V, and O VI absorption in the interstellar medium of the Galactic disk and halo toward the nucleus of the Seyfert galaxy ESO141-055.

The Complex Interstellar Na I Absorption toward h and Chi Persei

open access: yes, 2004
Recent high spatial and spectral resolution investigations of the diffuse interstellar medium (ISM) have found significant evidence for small-scale variations in the interstellar gas on scales less than or equal to 1 pc.

Small-Scale Variations of HI Spectra from Interstellar Scintillatio [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
I suggest that radio-wave scattering by the interstellar plasma, in combination with subsonic gradients in the Doppler velocity of interstellar HI, is responsible for the observed small-scale variation in HI absorption spectra of pulsars.

Kinematics of a high-redshift galaxy: A case study [PDF]

open access: yesSerbian Astronomical Journal, 2000
A kinematics of a z = 2.81 galaxy toward bright QSO 0528-250, as inferred from the absorption spectroscopy is discussed. There are sufficient arguments for a far-reaching conclusion that we are observing an older, uninvolved version of the local Galactic
