HST STIS spectroscopy of the triple nucleus of M31: two nested disks in Keplerian rotation around a Supermassive Black Hole
Ralf Bender, John Kormendy, Gary Bower +12
We present HST spectroscopy of the nucleus of M31 obtained with STIS. Spectra taken around the CaT lines at 8500 see only the red giants in the double bright- ness peaks P1 and P2.…
The Absorption Spectrum of High-Density Stellar Ejecta in the Line-of-Sight to Eta Carinae
T. R. Gull, G. Vieira, F. Bruhweiler +3
Using the high dispersion NUV mode of the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS) aboard the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) to observe Eta Carinae, we have resolved and identifie…
Complex C: A Low-Metallicity High-Velocity Cloud Plunging into the Milky Way
T. M. Tripp, B. P. Wakker, E. B. Jenkins +8
(Abridged) We present a new high-resolution (7 km/s FWHM) echelle spectrum of 3C 351 obtained with STIS. 3C 351 lies behind the low-latitude edge of high-velocity cloud Complex C,…
The Heavy Element Enrichment of Lyman alpha Clouds in the Virgo Supercluster
T. M. Tripp, E. B. Jenkins, G. M. Williger +11
Using high S/N STIS echelle spectra (FWHM=7 km/s) of 3C 273, we constrain the metallicities of two Lya clouds in the vicinity of the Virgo cluster. We detect C II, Si II, and Si II…
A Pair of Compact Red Galaxies at Redshift 2.38, Immersed in a 100 kpc Scale Ly-alpha Nebula
P. J. Francis, G. M. Williger, N. R. Collins +12
We present Hubble Space Telescope (HST) and ground-based observations of a pair of galaxies at redshift 2.38, which are collectively known as 2142-4420 B1 (Francis et al. 1996). Th…
STIS Echelle Observations of the Seyfert Galaxy NGC 4151: Physical Conditions in the Ultraviolet Absorbers
S. B. Kraemer, D. M. Crenshaw, J. B. Hutchings +6
We have examined the physical conditions in intrinsic UV-absorbing gas in the Seyfert galaxy NGC 4151, using echelle spectra obtained with the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph…
