摘要:

本文给出了银河系远紫外荧光分子氢(H_2)发射图,它是用覆盖天空约76%面积的FIMS/SPRAY获得的。H_2荧光发射经消隐校正后的强度与冷星际介质(ISM)的色余E(B-V)、中性氢柱密度N(H I)和H_α发射有很强的线性相关性。利用一个简单的光解区模型和由紫外星表导出的星际辐射场,得到了全天H_2柱密度图。我们估计的H2的分数(f_H2)和弥漫ISM的气尘比(GDR)。f_H2从E(B-V)< 0.1的光学薄区域处的<1%逐渐增加到E(B-V)= 3时的~50%。GDR的估计值约为5.1 x 10^21个原子cm^-2 mag^-1,与5.8 x 10^21个原子cm^-2 mag ^-1的标准值一致。

英文摘要:

We present the far-ultraviolet (FUV) fluorescent molecular hydrogen (H_2) emission map of the Milky Way Galaxy obtained with FIMS/SPEAR covering ~76% of the sky. The extinction-corrected intensity of the fluorescent H_2 emission has a strong linear correlation with the well-known tracers of the cold interstellar medium (ISM), including color excess E(B-V), neutral hydrogen column density N(H I), and H_alpha emission. The all-sky H_2 column density map was also obtained using a simple photodissociation region model and interstellar radiation fields derived from UV star catalogs. We estimated the fraction of H2 (f_H2) and the gas-to-dust ratio (GDR) of the diffuse ISM. The f_H2 gradually increases from <1% at optically thin regions where E(B-V) < 0.1 to ~50% for E(B-V) = 3. The estimated GDR is ~5.1 x 10^21 atoms cm^-2 mag^-1, in agreement with the standard value of 5.8 x 10^21 atoms cm^-2 mag^-1.
