The Structure of the Local Interstellar Medium. V. Electron Densities
We present a comprehensive survey of C II* absorption detections toward stars within 100 pc in order to measure the distribution of electron densities present in the local interstellar medium (LISM). Using high spectral resolution observations obtained by GHRS and STIS on board HST, we searched for all detections of …
