Measurements of the Diffuse Ultraviolet Background and the Terrestrial Airglow with the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph1
Far-UV observations in and near the Hubble Deep Fields demonstrate that the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS) can potentially obtain unique and precise measurements of the diffuse far-ultraviolet background. Although STIS is not the ideal instrument for such measurements, high-resolution images allow Galactic and extragalactic objects to be masked to very faint magnitudes, thus ensuri...
متن کاملStarbursts in the Far - Ultraviolet
Starbursts are a significant component of the present-day universe, and offer unique laboratories for studying the processes that have regulated the formation and evolution of galaxies and the intergalactic medium. The combination of large aperture size, medium-to-high spectral resolution, and access to the feature-rich far-ultraviolet band make FUSE a uniquely valuable tool for studying starbu...
متن کاملPhotochemistry in the Far Ultraviolet
Although a few surveys of vacuum ultraviolet photochemistry of a limited scope have appeared in recent years (1-5), the excellent review by McNesby & Okabe (6) which appeared in 1964 is the most recent comprehensive survey of the far (or vacuum) uv photochemistry of inorganic and organic substances. The progress made since then is obviously too vast to be covered in its entirety in the limited ...
متن کاملFar Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer Measurements of Interstellar Fluorine
The source of fluorine is not well understood, although core-collapse supernovae, Wolf-Rayet stars, and asymptotic giant branch stars have been suggested. A search for evidence of the -process during Type II supernovae is presented. Absorption from interstellar F i is seen in spectra of HD 208440 and HD 209339A acquired with the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer. In order to extract the co...
متن کاملDesign for the COBE1 Far Infrared Absolute Spectrophotometer (FIRAS)
The Far InfraRed Absolute Spectrophotometer (FIRAS) was built to measure the spectrum of diiuse emission from 1 to 100 cm ?1 , with particular attention to possible diierences between the spectrum of the cosmic microwave background radiation (CMBR) and a blackbody spectrum as small as 0.1% of the peak of the CMBR spectrum. The FIRAS has diierential inputs and outputs, a full beam external calib...
