Dust Scattered Radiation in the Galactic Poles
Jayant Murthy, Richard C. Henry, James Overduin
We have modeled the diffuse background at the Galactic Poles in the far-ultraviolet (FUV: 1536 Å) and the near-ultraviolet (NUV: 2316 Å). The background is well-fit using a single-…
The Diffuse Ultraviolet Background Close to the Galactic Plane
Jayant Murthy, R. C. Henry, James Overduin
We have used Voyager and Galex observations to map the diffuse Galactic light near the Galactic equator. We find that most of the observations are relatively faint with surface bri…
Components of the Diffuse Ultraviolet Radiation at High Latitudes
M. S. Akshaya, Jayant Murthy, S. Ravichandran +2
We have used data from the Galaxy Evolution Explorer to study the different components of the diffuse ultraviolet background in the region between the Galactic latitudes 70-80 degr…
Discovery of an Ionizing Radiation Field in the Universe
Richard Conn Henry, Jayant Murthy, James Overduin
We draw attention to observational evidence indicating that a substantial fraction of the well-known cosmic celestial diffuse ultraviolet background radiation field is actually due…
The Diffuse Radiation Field at High Galactic Latitudes
M. S. Akshaya, Jayant Murthy, S. Ravichandran +2
We have used GALEX observations of the North and South Galactic poles to study the diffuse ultraviolet background at locations where the Galactic light is expected to be at a minim…
The Mystery of the Cosmic Diffuse Ultraviolet Background Radiation
Richard Conn Henry, Jayant Murthy, James Overduin +1
The diffuse cosmic background radiation in the GALEX far ultraviolet (FUV, 1300 Å - 1700 Å) is deduced to originate only partially in the dust-scattered radiation of FUV-emitting s…
