ORFEUS far UV echelle spectra have been used to investigate HI, H_2 and CO absorption lines along the line of sight towards LH 10:3120 in the LMC, extending the study presented by de Boer et al. (1998). While H_2 absorption is clearly…
We present a study of molecular hyrogen (H_2) in the SMC gas, based on space shuttle Far UV spectroscopy with ORFEUS and the Tuebingen echelle spectrograph, in the line of sight to the SMC star HD 5980. 17 absorption lines from the Lyman…
In front of the LMC molecular hydrogen is found in absorption near 0 km/s, being local disk gas, near +60 km/s in an intermediate velocity cloud, and near +120 km/s, in a high velocity halo cloud. The nature of the gas is discussed based on…
We present measurements of interstellar H_2 absorption lines in the continuum spectra of seven early-type stars in the Galactic disk at distances between 1 and 4 kpc. Five of these stars provide lines of sight through the Sagittarius spiral…
In ORFEUS II spectra of the sdO star BD +39 3226 interstellar hydrogen and deuterium is detected. From Ly alpha profile fitting and a curve of growth analysis of the Lyman series of H I and D I we derive the column densities…
Absorption lines of interstellar molecular hydrogen in the far ultraviolet (FUV) have been observed in the spectrum of the O9.5 halo star HD 93521, located some 1500 pc from the Galactic plane. During the second flight of the ORFEUS-SPAS…
We report results from a FUSE survey of interstellar molecular hydrogen (H2) in the Galactic disk toward 139 O-type and early B-type stars at Galactic latitudes $|b| < 10^{\circ}$, with updated photometric and parallax distances. The H2…
More than 20 years after the Copernicus satellite, ORFEUS allows the investigation of molecular hydrogen (H_2) in the diffuse interstellar medium by way of FUV absorption spectroscopy once again. This time, targets in the Magellanic Clouds…
We investigate interstellar absorption from molecular hydrogen (H_2) and metals in an intermediate-velocity cloud (IVC) in the direction of the LMC star Sk -68 80 (HD 36521), based on data from the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer…
We report results from a FUSE survey of interstellar molecular hydrogen (H2) along 45 sight lines to AGN at high Galactic latitudes (|b| > 20 degrees). Most (39 of 45) of the sight lines show detectable Galactic H2 absorption from Lyman and…
New results from the search for H2 absorption in the damped Ly-alpha galaxy at redshift z = 3.4 toward QSO 0000-2620 (z_em = 4.1) are reported. The high-resolution (lambda/Delta lambda = 48,000) spectra of Q0000-2620 were obtained using the…
We present a new ultra-violet spectrum of the QSO 0013-004 with 0.9 \AA resolution obtained with the MMT Blue spectrograph. The \upsilon = 0 - 0, 1 - 0, 2 - 0 and 3 - 0 Lyman bands of H_2 associated with the z = 1.9731 damped Ly alpah…
During the second flight of the ORFEUS-SPAS mission in November/December 1996, the Echelle spectrometer was used extensively by the Principal and Guest Investigator teams as one of the two focal plane instruments of the ORFEUS telescope.…
Using high-resolution (~85000) and high signal-to-noise ratio (~200) optical spectra acquired with the European Southern Observatory Ultraviolet and Visual Echelle Spectrograph, we have determined the interstellar column densities of C2 for…
Measuring rest-frame ultraviolet rotational transitions from the Lyman and Werner bands in absorption against a bright background continuum is one of the few ways to directly measure molecular hydrogen (H2). Here we report the detection of…
We report the first detection of molecular hydrogen (H$_{2}$) absorption in the Lyman-$\alpha$ emission line profiles of two classical T Tauri stars (CTTSs), DF Tau and V4046 Sgr, observed by \emph{HST}/COS. This absorption is the energy…
We describe a moderate-resolution FUSE survey of H2 along 70 sight lines to the Small and Large Magellanic Clouds, using hot stars as background sources. FUSE spectra of 67% of observed Magellanic Cloud sources (52% of LMC and 92% of SMC)…
The environment around protoplanetary disks (PPDs) regulates processes which drive the chemical and structural evolution of circumstellar material. We perform a detailed empirical survey of warm molecular hydrogen (H$_2$) absorption…
UV absorption studies with FUSE have observed H2 molecular gas in translucent and diffuse clouds. Observations of the 158 micron [C II] fine structure line with Herschel also trace the same H2 molecular gas in emission. We present [C II]…
Using the Short-Wavelength-Spectrometer on the Infrared Space Observatory (ISO), we obtained near- and mid-infrared spectra toward the brightest H_2 emission peak of the Orion OMC-1 outflow. A wealth of emission and absorption features were…
