A Dirty WindowObserving the Diffuse ISM: The Space Missions

A Dirty Window: Observing the Diffuse ISM: The Space Missions [This chapter describes how space based observatories have influenced the study of the diffuse ISM by their opening of the full electromagnetic spectrum to imaging and spectroscopic study. From the radio to gamma-rays, satellites have contributed substantially heavily to the field. We review some of the more significant missions and describe some of their special capabilities for studying the diffuse ISM since many of these satellites have produced significant archival databases.] http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png

Abstract

[This chapter describes how space based observatories have influenced the study of the diffuse ISM by their opening of the full electromagnetic spectrum to imaging and spectroscopic study. From the radio to gamma-rays, satellites have contributed substantially heavily to the field. We review some of the more significant missions and describe some of their special capabilities for studying the diffuse ISM since many of these satellites have produced significant archival databases.]
