FUSE Spectroscopy of High Velocity Cloud Complex C
E. M. Murphy, K. R. Sembach, B. K. Gibson +7
We present Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer (FUSE) observations of the sightline toward the Seyfert 1 galaxy Markarian 876, which passes through high velocity cloud (HVC) com…
FUSE Observations of O VI Absorption in the Galactic Halo
B. D. Savage, K. R. Sembach, E. B. Jenkins +10
Far-ultraviolet spectra of 11 AGNs observed by FUSE are analyzed to obtain measures of O VI 1031.93 A absorption occurring over very long paths through Milky Way halo gas. Strong O…
FUSE Observations of O VI in High Velocity Clouds
K. R. Sembach, B. D. Savage, J. M. Shull +13
We have used moderate-resolution (FWHM ~ 25 km/sec) spectra of AGNs and QSOs observed by the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer (FUSE) to make the first definitive measurements…
Highly Ionized High Velocity Clouds
Kenneth R. Sembach, Blair D. Savage, Limin Lu +1
We have recently used the Hubble Space Telescope to study a pair of high velocity clouds in the direction of Mrk 509 that have unusual ionization properties. They exhibit strong CI…
