X-Ray Searches for Emission from the WHIM in the Galactic Halo and the Intergalactic Medium
Joel N. Bregman, Birgit Otte, Jimmy A. Irwin +3
At least 50% of the baryons in the local universe are undetected and predicted to be in a hot dilute phase (1E5-1E7 K) in low and moderate overdensity environments. We searched for…
The Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer Survey of OVI Emission in the Milky Way
Birgit Otte, W. Van Dyke Dixon
We present a survey of OVI 1032 emission in the Milky Way using data from the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer (FUSE) satellite. The observations span the period from launch…
The Size of the Cooling Region of Hot Gas in Two Elliptical Galaxies
Joel N. Bregman, Birgit Otte, Eric D. Miller +1
Some early-type galaxies show OVI emission, a tracer of gas at 10^5.5 K, and a predicted product of gas cooling from the X-ray emitting temperatures. We studied the spatial extent…
Discovery of an OVI Emitting Nebula around the Hot White Dwarf KPD 0005+5106
Birgit Otte, W. Van Dyke Dixon, Ravi Sankrit
A survey of diffuse interstellar sight lines observed with the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer has led to the serendipitous discovery of a high-ionization nebula around the…
FUSE Detection of Galactic OVI Emission in the Halo above the Perseus Arm
Birgit Otte, W. Van Dyke Dixon, Ravi Sankrit
Background observations obtained with the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer (FUSE) toward l=95.4, b=36.1 show OVI 1032,1038 in emission. This sight line probes a region of str…
Searching for additional heating - [OII] emission in the diffuse ionized gas of NGC891, NGC4631 and NGC3079
B. Otte, R. J. Reynolds, J. S. Gallagher +1
We present spectroscopic data of ionized gas in the disk--halo regions of three edge-on galaxies, NGC 891, NGC 4631 and NGC 3079, covering a wavelength range from [\ion{O}{2}] 3…
