Cosmic gamma rays and the mass of gas in the Galaxy

K. M. Richardson, A. W. Wolfendale

Abstract

Analyse des relations entre les observations de l'extinction interstellaire visuelle, de la temperature de la raie de CO et de l'intensite des rayons cosmiques gamma. Les fonctions obtenues sont plus complexes que prevu et obligent a revoir les facteurs d'etalonnage utilises pour convertir la temperature de CO en densite de colonne hydrogene. Ainsi la masse totale de H 2 dans la galaxie pourrait etre revue
