Interstellar Atomic Abundances
A broad array of interstellar absorption features that appear in the ultraviolet spectra of bright sources allows us to measure the abundances and ionization states of many important heavy elements that exist as free atoms in the interstellar medium. By comparing these abundances with reference values in the Sun, we find that some elements have abundances relative to hydrogen that are approxima...
متن کاملX-ray Absorption Spectroscopy of the Multi-phase Interstellar Medium: Oxygen and Neon Abundances
X-ray absorption spectroscopy provides a potentially powerful tool in determining the metal abundances in various phases of the interstellar medium (ISM). We present a case study of the sight line toward 4U 1820–303 (Galactic coordinates l, b = 2.79,−7.91 and distance = 7.6 kpc), based on Chandra Grating observations. The detection of O I, O II, O III, O VII, O VIII, and Ne IX Kα absorption lin...
متن کاملHigh Resolution X-ray Spectroscopy of the Multiphase Interstellar Medium toward Cyg X-2
High resolution X-ray absorption spectroscopy is a powerful diagnostic tool for probing chemical and physical properties of the interstellar medium (ISM) at various phases. We present detections of K transition absorption lines from the low ionization ions of O I, O II, Ne I, Ne II, and Ne III, and the high ionization ones of O VI, O VII, O VIII, Ne IX, and Mg XI, as well as details of neutral ...
متن کاملThe Three-phase Interstellar Medium Revisited
■ Abstract The interstellar medium in the vicinity of the Sun is arranged in largescale structures of bubble walls, sheets, and filaments of warm gas, within which close to the midplane there are subsheets and filaments of cold dense material; the whole occupies roughly half the available volume and extends with decreasing mean density to at least a kiloparsec off the plane. The remainder of th...
متن کاملPer-Session Security: Password-Based Cryptography Revisited
Cryptographic security is usually defined as some form of guarantee that holds except when a bad event with negligible probability occurs, and nothing is guaranteed in that case. However, in settings where such failure can happen with substantial probability, one needs to provide guarantees even for the bad case. A typical example is where a (possibly weak) password is used instead of a secure ...
