Cooling in Coronal Gas in the M82 Starburst Superwind
Charles G. Hoopes, Timothy M. Heckman, David K. Strickland +1
We have used the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer to search for OVI 1031.926 Angstrom emission at four locations in the starburst superwind of M82. No OVI emission was detect…
H_2 absorption in a dense interstellar filament in the Milky Way halo
P. Richter, K. R. Sembach, J. C. Howk
We investigate interstellar absorption from molecular hydrogen (H_2) and metals in an intermediate-velocity cloud (IVC) in the direction of the LMC star Sk -68 80 (HD 36521), based…
The elemental abundance pattern in a galaxy at z=2.626
Jason X. Prochaska, J. Chris Howk, Arthur M. Wolfe
The discovery of metal-poor stars (where metal is any element more massive than helium) has enabled astronomers to probe the chemical enrichment history of the Milky Way. More rece…
On the Origin of the High-Ionization Intermediate-Velocity Gas Toward HD 14434
David C. Knauth, J. Christopher Howk, Kenneth R. Sembach +2
We present Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer and Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph observations of high-ionization interstellar absorption toward HD 14434 [(l, b) = (135.1,…
Oxygen Gas Phase Abundance Revisited
M. K. André, C. M. Oliveira, J. C. Howk +7
We present new measurements of the interstellar gas-phase oxygen abundance along the sight lines towards 19 early-type galactic stars at an average distance of 2.6 kpc. We derive O…
