J. Barnstedt et al., The ORFEUS II Echelle spectrum of HD 93521: A reference for interstellar molecular hydrogen, ASTR AST SS, 143(2), 2000, pp. 193-210
During the second flight of the ORFEUS-SPAS mission in November/December 19
96, the Echelle spectrometer was used extensively by the: Principal and Gue
st Investigator teams as one of the two focal plane instruments of the ORFE
US telescope. The spectrum of IID 93521 was obtained during this mission wi
th a total integration time of 1740s. This spectrum shows numerous sharp in
terstellar absorption lines. We identified 198 lines of molecular hydrogen
including at least 7 lines with a high velocity component. Also most of the
67 identified interstellar metal lilies are visible with a high velocity c
omponent.
We present; plots of the complete ORFEUS II Echelle spectrum together with
tables of all identified interstellar absorption lines including all 14 det
ectable H I lines. In addition several identified stellar lines, partially
with narrow absorption components, anti stellar wind lines are given in a s
eparate table.
