A Method for Deriving Accurate Gas-Phase Abundances for the Multiphase Interstellar Galactic Halo
J. Christopher Howk, Kenneth R. Sembach, Blair D. Savage
We describe a new method for determining total gas-phase abundances for the Galactic ISM with minimal ionization uncertainties. For sight lines toward globular clusters containing…
OVI Emission in the Halos of Edge-on Spiral Galaxies
B. Otte, E. M. Murphy, J. C. Howk +3
We have used the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer to search for OVI 1031.926, 1037.617 A emission in the halos of the edge-on spiral galaxies NGC4631 and NGC891. In NGC4631,…
A FUSE Survey of Interstellar O VI Absorption in the Small Magellanic Cloud
Charles G. Hoopes, Kenneth R. Sembach, J. Christopher Howk +2
We present the results of a FUSE survey of O VI 1031.93 Angstrom and 1037.62 Angstrom absorption toward 18 OB stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). We detect O VI along every…
Dust in the Ionized Medium of the Galaxy: GHRS Measurements of Al III and S III
J. Christopher Howk, Blair D. Savage
We present interstellar absorption line measurements of the ions S III and Al III towards six stars using archival Goddard High Resolution Spectrograph data. The ions Al III and S…
A Search for Optical Afterglow from GRB970828
Paul J. Groot, T. Galama, J. van Paradijs +1
We report on the results of R band observations of the error box of the gamma-ray burst of August 28, 1997, made between 4 hours and 8 days after this burst occurred. No counterpar…
