Excitation mechanisms in newly discovered H2-bearing Damped Lyman-alpha clouds: systems with low molecular fractions
P. Noterdaeme, C. Ledoux, P. Petitjean +3
We probe the physical conditions in high-redshift damped Ly-alpha systems using the observed molecular fraction and the rotational excitation of molecular hydrogen. We report two n…

Physical conditions in the neutral interstellar medium at z=2.43 toward Q2348-011
P. Noterdaeme, P. Petitjean, R. Srianand +2
We obtained a high-resolution VLT-UVES spectrum of the quasar Q2348-011 over a wavelength range that covers most of the prominent metal and molecular absorption lines from the log…
