Parsec-scale Variations in the 7Li/6Li Isotope Ratio Toward IC 348 and the Per OB 2 Association

D. C. Knauth, C. J. Taylor, A. M. Ritchey +2

Measurements of the lithium isotopic ratio in the diffuse interstellar medium from high-resolution spectra of the LiI λ6708 resonance doublet have now been reported for a number of…

Rubidium in the Interstellar Medium

Kyle M. Walker, S. R. Federman, David C. Knauth +1

We present observations of interstellar rubidium toward o Per, zeta Per, AE Aur, HD 147889, chi Oph, zeta Oph, and 20 Aql. Theory suggests that stable 85Rb and long-lived 87Rb are…

What is the Total Deuterium Abundance in the Local Galactic Disk?

Jeffrey L. Linsky, Bruce T. Draine, H. W. Moos +14

Analyses of spectra obtained with the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer (FUSE) satellite, together with spectra from the Copernicus and IMAPS instruments, reveal an unexplaine…

The Interstellar N/O Abundance Ratio: Evidence for Local Infall?

David C. Knauth, James T. Lauroesch, David M. Meyer

Sensitive measurements of the interstellar gas-phase oxygen abundance have revealed a slight oxygen deficiency ( 15%) toward stars within 500 pc of the Sun as compared to mor…

Spectroscopic study of the long-period dust-producing WC7pd+O9 binary HD192641

L. Lefevre, S. V. Marchenko, S. Lepine +12

We present the results of an optical spectroscopic study of the massive Wolf-Rayet binary WR137. These data cover the dust-formation maximum in 1997. Combining all available measur…

The Interstellar Rubidium Isotope Ratio toward Rho Ophiuchi A

S. R. Federman, David C. Knauth, David L. Lambert

The isotope ratio, 85Rb/87Rb, places constraints on models of the nucleosynthesis of heavy elements, but there is no precise determination of the ratio for material beyond the Sola…
