A series of finding lists of A stars in regions at high galactic latitudes has been published in the last few years. Strömgren four-color and Hβ measures have been made of stars in five of the regions, allowing the interstellar absorption in each to be calculated. The two most important regions are the North Galactic Pole and the South Galactic Pole where color excesses of EB_V=0.00 and EB_V=0.02 were found respectively. An area in front of the Large Magellanic Cloud has a color excess of EB_V=0.04.

The detailed relationship between optical interstellar absorption lines and 21-cm. observations is investigated in this paper.Dr Guido Münch, of the Mount Wilson and Palomar Observatories, provided the list of six intermediate-latitude stars shown in Table 1. The spectra of these stars all show complex absorption lines due to interstellar Ca 11. The 21-cm. line is measurable in four of the six regions, although the peak intensity is low in each case. It is noteworthy that for the first two stars on the list the radio velocity agrees closely with the velocity of an intense optical component. In view of the great difference in angular resolution, the failure to find correspondence in every case is not surprising.

AbstractLyman-α radiation dominates the ultraviolet spectra of G, K, and M stars and is a major photodissociation source for H2O, CO2, and CH4 in the upper atmospheres of exoplanets. We obtain intrinsic Lyman-α line fluxes for late-type stars by correcting for interstellar absorption or by scaling from other spectroscopic observables. When stars flare, all emission lines brighten by large factors as shown by HST spectra. We describe photochemical models of the atmosphere of the mini-Neptune GJ 436b (Miguel et al. 2015) that show the effects of flaring Lyman-α fluxes on atmospheric chemical abundances.
