The FUSE Survey of OVI Absorption in the Galactic Disk

D. V. Bowen, E. B. Jenkins, T. M. Tripp +2

We outline the results from a FUSE Team program designed to characterize OVI absorption in the disk of the Milky Way. We find that OVI absorption occurs throughout most of the Gala…

The Physical Conditions and Metal Enrichment of Low-Redshift Interstellar and Intergalactic Media: The Benefits of High-Resolution Ultraviolet Spectra

Todd M. Tripp, David V. Bowen

To underscore the value of high spectral resolution for the study of low-z QSO absorption lines, we briefly present Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph echelle data that demonstra…

The Distribution of Thermal Pressures in the Interstellar Medium

Edward B. Jenkins, Todd M. Tripp

It is generally recognized that the interstellar medium has a vast range of densities and temperatures. While these two properties are usually anticorrelated with each other, there…

FUSE and STIS Observations of Intervening OVI Absorption Line Systems in the Spectrum of PG0953+415

B. D. Savage, K. R. Sembach, T. M. Tripp +1

We present FUSE and STIS observations of the IGM toward PG 0953+415 (z_em = 0.239). An O VI system at z = 0.06807 is detected in H I Lya, Lyb, Lyg, O VI N V, C IV, and C III. The o…

HST/STIS Spectroscopy of 3C 273

S. R. Heap, G. M. Williger, R. Dave +3

We present preliminary results on the low-redshift Lyman alpha forest as based on STIS spectra of 3C 273. A total of 121 intergalactic Lyman alpha-absorbing systems were detected,…

The Metallicity of the Local IGM from the HST/STIS Spectrum of 3C273

Romeel Davé, S. R. Heap, G. M. Williger +3

We present a preliminary study of the metallicity of low-redshift Lyman alpha absorbers from the HST/STIS spectrum of 3C273. Using a pixel-based shift-and-coadd technique, we compa…
