Spatial Correlations of Selected DIBs to the CH and CH+ Molecules
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 21 February 2014
Abstract
The analysis of radial velocities in the spectra of HD 151932 and HD 152233, performed for the optical lines of interstellar CH and CH+ molecules on one hand, and for the diffuse bands 4964 and 6196 Å on the other hand, suggests that the carrier of the former DIB is spatially related to CH, while the carrier of the latter - to CH+. A further analysis, based on the sample of 106 reddened OB stars, partly confirms this suggestion, showing that the CH column density correlates indeed much better with the equivalent width of the 4964 DIB than with that of the 6196 DIB.
