A Nearby Dark Molecular Cloud in the Local Bubble Revealed via H Fluorescence
Blakesley Burkhart, Thavisha E. Dharmawardena, Shmuel Bialy +20
A longstanding prediction in interstellar theory posits that significant quantities of molecular gas, crucial for star formation, may be undetected due to being ``dark" in commonly…
Global distribution of far-ultraviolet emissions from highly ionized gas in the Milky Way
Young-Soo Jo, Kwang-il Seon, Kyoung-Wook Min +2
We present all-sky maps of two major FUV cooling lines, C IV and O VI, of highly ionized gas to investigate the nature of the transition-temperature gas. From the extinction-correc…
Far-ultraviolet fluorescent molecular hydrogen emission map of the Milky Way Galaxy
Young-Soo Jo, Kwang-Il Seon, Kyoung-Wook Min +2
We present the far-ultraviolet (FUV) fluorescent molecular hydrogen (H_2) emission map of the Milky Way Galaxy obtained with FIMS/SPEAR covering ~76% of the sky. The extinction-cor…
Bright stars observed by FIMS/SPEAR
Young-Soo Jo, Kwang-Il Seon, Kyoung-Wook Min +5
In this paper, we present a catalogue of the spectra of bright stars observed during the sky survey using the Far-Ultraviolet Imaging Spectrograph (FIMS), which was designed primar…
Global Far-Ultraviolet Properties of the Cygnus Loop
Il-Joong Kim, Kwang-Il Seon, Yeo-Myeong Lim +4
We present the C III λ977, O VI λλ1032, 1038 and N IV] λ1486 emission line maps of the Cygnus Loop, obtained with the newly processed data of Spectroscopy of Plasma Evolution from…
Comparison of the Diffuse Halpha and FUV Continuum Backgrounds: On the Origins of the Diffuse Halpha Background
Kwang-Il Seon, Adolf Witt, Il-Joong Kim +4
We compare the diffuse H map of our Galaxy with the FUV (1370-1710Å) continuum map. The H intensity correlates well with the FUV intensity. The H/FUV intensity ratio incre…
Observation of the Far-ultraviolet Continuum Background with SPEAR/FIMS
K. -I. Seon, J. Edelstein, E. Korpela +6
We present the general properties of the far-ultraviolet (FUV; 1370-1720A) continuum background over most of the sky, obtained with the Spectroscopy of Plasma Evolution from Astrop…
Near-Infrared Properties of Metal-poor Globular Clusters in the Galactic Bulge Direction
S. -H. Chun, J. -W. Kim, I. -G. Shin +6
Aims. J, H, and K' images obtained from the near-infrared imager CFHTIR on the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope are used to derive the morphological parameters of the red giant branc…
A wide-field photometric survey for extratidal tails around five metal-poor globular clusters in the Galactic halo
Sang-Hyun Chun, Jae-Woo Kim, Sangmo T. Sohn +7
Wide-field deep gri images obtained with the Megacam of the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope (CFHT) are used to investigate the spatial configuration of stars around five metal-poor…
