Discovery of molecular hydrogen in a high-velocity cloud of the Galactic halo

P. Richter, K. S. de Boer, H. Widmann +4

We report the discovery of molecular hydrogen absorption in a Galactic high-velocity cloud (HVC) in the direction of the Large Magellanic Cloud. For the same HVC we derive an iron…

ORFEUS II echelle spectra: Detection of H_2 absorption in SMC gas

P. Richter, H. Widmann, K. S. de Boer +8

We present a study of molecular hyrogen (H_2) in the SMC gas, based on space shuttle Far UV spectroscopy with ORFEUS and the Tuebingen echelle spectrograph, in the line of sight to…
