Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopy of a Nonradiative Shock in the Cygnus Loop: Implications for the Postshock Electron-Ion Equilibration
Parviz Ghavamian, John C. Raymond, William P. Blair
We present far ultraviolet spectra of a fast (~ 300 km/s) nonradiative shock in the Cygnus Loop supernova remnant. Our observations were performed with the Far Ultraviolet Spectros…
On-Orbit Performance of the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer (FUSE) Satellite
D. J. Sahnow, H. W. Moos, T. Ake +38
Launch of the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer (FUSE) has been followed by an extensive period of calibration and characterization as part of the preparation for normal satel…
Overview of the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer Mission
H. W. Moos
The Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer satellite observes light in the far-ultraviolet spectral region, 905 - 1187 A with high spectral resolution. The instrument consists of f…
FUSE Observations of O VI Absorption in the Galactic Halo
B. D. Savage, K. R. Sembach, E. B. Jenkins +10
Far-ultraviolet spectra of 11 AGNs observed by FUSE are analyzed to obtain measures of O VI 1031.93 A absorption occurring over very long paths through Milky Way halo gas. Strong O…
FUSE Observations of Diffuse Interstellar Molecular Hydrogen
J. M. Shull, J. Tumlinson, E. B. Jenkins +11
We describe a moderate-resolution FUSE mini-survey of H2 in the Milky Way and Magellanic Clouds, using four hot stars and four AGN as background sources. FUSE spectra of nearly eve…
FUSE Observations of O VI in High Velocity Clouds
K. R. Sembach, B. D. Savage, J. M. Shull +13
We have used moderate-resolution (FWHM ~ 25 km/sec) spectra of AGNs and QSOs observed by the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer (FUSE) to make the first definitive measurements…
