摘要

We have used the Wisconsin Hα Mapper (WHAM) facility to measure the interstellar Hα emission toward the high Galactic latitude O star HD 93521 (l = 183.1°, b = + 62.2°). Three emission components were detected along this line of sight. These components have radial velocities of -10, -51, and -90 km s~(-1) with respect to the local standard of rest (LSR) and have Ha intensities of 0.20, 0.15, and 0.023 R, respectively, corresponding to emission measures of 0.55, 0.42, and 0.06 cm~(-6) pc. We have also measured the Hα emission toward the direction l = 148.5°, b = + 53.0°, which lies in the region of exceptionally low H Ⅰ column density known as the Lockman Window. An emission component is detected in this direction at -1 km s~(-1) (LSR), with an intensity of 0.20 R (0.55 cm~(-6) pc). In addition, we studied the direction l = 163.5°, b = + 53.5°. No Galactic emission was detected along this line of sight, and upper limits on the possible intensity of Galactic emission toward this direction are 0. 11 R at the LSR and 0.06 R at -50 km s~(-1). As part of the process of separating the interstellar from the terrestrial emission, we also detected and characterized 12 faint (~ 0.03-0.15 R), unidentified atmospheric lines present in WHAM Ha spectra. Finally, we have used WHAM to obtain [O Ⅰ] λ6300 spectra along the line of sight toward HD 93521. We do not conclusively detect interstellar [O Ⅰ] emission toward the star, but place an upper limit of 0.060 R on the [O Ⅰ] intensity of the intermediate-velocity (-51 km s~(-1)) component. If the temperature of the gas is 10,000 K, this limit implies that, within the Hα-emitting region, the hydrogen ionization fraction n(H~+)(H_(total)) > 0.6.
