Nearby interstellar clouds with high (|v| >/= 10 km/s) random velocities although easily detected in NaI and CaII lines have hitherto not been detected (in emission or absorption) in the HI 21cm line. We describe here deep Giant Metrewave…

We study the properties of low-column density gas clumps in the halo of the Milky Way based on high-resolution 21-cm observations. Using interferometric data from the WSRT and the VLA we study HI emission at low-, intermediate- and high…

Recent high spatial and spectral resolution investigations of the diffuse interstellar medium (ISM) have found significant evidence for small-scale variations in the interstellar gas on scales less than or equal to 1 pc. To better…

Using the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope (FAST) in Guizhou, China, we detect the 21cm neutral atomic hydrogen absorption in the young planetary nebula IC 4997. The absorption arises from a shell also associated with…

Over the course of its motion through the Galaxy, our solar system has encountered many interstellar environments of varying characteristics. Interstellar medium (ISM) density variations spanning seven orders of magnitude are commonly seen…

We present high resolution (R = 60,000) measurements of the NaI D1 and D2 (5890 A) and CaII K (3933 A) interstellar absorption line profiles recorded towards several post-AGB stars located within the M13 and M15 globular clusters,…

We present a study of the abundances and physical conditions in the interstellar gas toward the heavily reddened star HD 192639 [E_(B-V) = 0.64], based on analysis of FUSE and HST/STIS spectra covering the range from 912 to 1361 A. This…

We have made HI 21cm-line absorption measurements using the GMRT towards 15 directions in the Galaxy which are known to have high random velocity clouds as seen in the optical absorption lines of CaII and NaI. For the first time, in 6 out…

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 VI absorption is detected along 10 of 11 sight lines.…

We report multi-epoch VLA H I absorption observations of the source 1741-038 (OT-068) before and during an extreme scattering event (ESE). Observations at four epochs, three during the ESE, were obtained. We find no changes in the…

We present new H I 21 cm absorption data and ultraviolet spectroscopy from HST/STIS of the QSO/galaxy pair 3C 232/NGC 3067. The QSO sightline lies near the minor axis and 1.8 arcmin (11 kpc) above the plane of NGC 3067, a nearby luminous…

We report the first detection of the v=1--0, R(0) ro-vibrational transition of HF at 2.499385 microns arising from interstellar gas. The line is seen in absorption toward 3 background sources---HD 154368, Elias 29, and AFGL 2136 IRS 1---all…

We report the first evidence of temporal variability in the interstellar Na I absorption toward HD 47240, which lies behind the Monoceros Loop supernova remnant (SNR). Analysis of multi-epoch Kitt Peak coud\'{e} feed spectra from this…

We have obtained high resolution (FWHM = 4.4 km/s) Keck spectra of images A and C of the gravitationally lensed QSO Q1422+231. The images are separated by 1.3" on the sky. In an absorption system at z = 3.538 gas column density variations…

We analyse absorption characteristics and physical conditions of extraplanar intermediate- and high-velocity gas to study the distribution of the neutral and weakly ionised Milky Way halo gas and its relevance for the evolution of the Milky…

We have carried out a sensitive high-latitude (|b| > 15deg.) HI 21cm-line absorption survey towards 102 sources using the GMRT. With a 3-sigma detection limit in optical depth of ~0.01, this is the most sensitive HI absorption survey. We…

High-resolution spectral profiles of Na I D lines from the interstellar medium towards 64 stars in the direction of the Vela supernova remnant are presented. This survey conducted mostly between 2011-12 complements an earlier survey of the…

We combine CaII/NaI absorption and HI 21 cm emission line measurements to analyse the metal abundances, the distribution, the small-scale structure, and the physical conditions of intermediate- and high-velocity gas in the Galactic halo.

(Abridged) We present high-resolution spectra of the interstellar NaI and CaII absorption lines for 3 early-type stars along the line-of-sight towards the Shajn 147 SNR. These are supplemented with far-UV aborption spectra of HD 36665 and…

We present three epochs of VLBA observations of Galactic HI absorption toward the quasar 3C~138 with resolutions of 20 mas (~ 10 AU). This analysis includes VLBA data from observations in 1999 and 2002 along with a reexamination of 1995…
