During the second flight of the ORFEUS-SPAS mission in November/December 1996, the Echelle spectrometer was used extensively by the Principal and Guest Investigator teams as one of…
ORFEUS II Echelle spectra: Molecular hydrogen at high velocities toward HD 93521
W. Gringel, J. Barnstedt, K. S. de Boer +3
Absorption lines of interstellar molecular hydrogen in the far ultraviolet (FUV) have been observed in the spectrum of the O9.5 halo star HD 93521, located some 1500 pc from the Ga…
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…
