Abstract Supershells are gigantic bubbles of hot gas blown in galactic disks by stellar winds and supernovae. Providing an enormous energy input to the ISM, they have an important effect on local dynamics and on galactic halos. One of them, LMC2 in the Large Magellanic Cloud, has been well studied at radio, optical and X-ray wavelengths. We have shown its optical filaments to be expanding in LMC disk gas. Our recent ROSAT observations reveal that the diffuse X-ray emission covers a larger sky area than the optical filaments do. Did LMC2 burst open in the halo\?. What is the dynamics of the optically invisible IS gas layers within and around LMC2\?. To probe the IS gas of LMC2, we propose to obtain GHRS medium resolution UV spectra of 7 supergiant stars in the LMC2 field. The observational goal is to measure the velocities and strengths of UV IS absorption lines arising in the cold, warm and hot LMC2 gas. HST has the only existing UV spectrograph that can detect individual velocity components of IS hot gas (CIV and NV absorption) in connection with the X- ray diffuse emission seen towards the LMC supershells. The scientific goals are to find a satisfactory model of LMC2 that describes the physical characteristics of the superbubble and the effects of supershell expansion or break-out into the LMC halo. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 9.

Scientific Justification. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 3. Description of proposed observations. We propose to obtain GHRS medium resolution UV spectra of 7 LMC OB supergiants selected in various parts of the LMC2 field to probe thoroughly the IS gas throughout and around the superbubble cavity. For each star, 2 carousel settings of the G160M grating will center wavelengths 1249.36 and 1561.37 A on detector 2. For each carousel setting, a series of 5 minutes exposures will be made , the number of which depends on the target 's UV flux. Breaking the exposure into 5 minute intervals allows correction for image drift due to variations in the effect of the earth's magnetic field on the detector image stability. Step pattern 4 is chosen to yield 2 substeps and measurements of the background signal. Since target positions are accurately known, onboard acquisition will be employed. The small science aperture will be used. We are concerned with the IS spectra and particularly with absorption line velocities. Consequently, we plan to obtain Pt lamp wavelength calibrations for each carousel position. The carousel settings include IS lines in atoms and ions with ionization potentials ranging from 11eV (CI) to 97 eV (NV). CIV and NV absorption lines will sample gas in conduction fronts between hot gas and the superbubble or funnel walls, coronal gas, and gas in highly ionised regions formed by the UV radiation of hot OB stars. SiII and SII absorption lines will give information on the photoionised gas and clouds which have been compressed by shocks. The CI multiplets will sample the warm neutral gas and cold HI clouds trapped inside LMC2. Page 3 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 4. Justification of need for HST observations. HST has the only existing UV spectrograph (GHRS) that can detect the individual velocity components of IS hot gas (CIV and NV), in connection with the X-ray diffuse emission seen towards the superbubbles in the LMC. There is considerable information about the stars and the ISM in the direction of the LMC supershells. This includes detailed studies of the HI emission line gas (Rohlfs et al. 1984), our Fabry-Perot optical observations of the velocities of the LMC2 filaments (Caulet et al. 1982), and our extensive ROSAT survey data of soft X-ray emission arising in the LMC2 region (Hasinger and Pietsch 1991). Therefore, taking into account all this knowledge, the LMC is the best galaxy for supershell detailed studies. A complete study of superbubble dynamics requires the study of all IS superbubble gas phases. Our Fabry-Perot optical data on the visible LMC2 filaments revealed the expansion of the receding portion of LMC2, but could not trace most of the superbubble gas, which is optically invisible. According to the current superbubble models, many UV absorption lines are expected to arise in the expanding envelope, corresponding to the predicted temperature drop from 1.0xE6 K to 1000 K. The wavelengths of these lines lie below the atmospheric cut -off (3000 A), and cannot be observed using spectrographs on ground-based telescopes. Only HST has the sensitivity and resolving power to detect these absorption lines in the UV spectra of background LMC stars selected in the direction of LMC2. The spectrograph onboard IUE cannot do it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 5. Description of special scheduling requirements. We have scheduled a wavelength calibration at each carousel setting. Since the study of the dynamics of the superbubble gas is a major objective of our proposal, we need velocity measurements at least as accurate as those obtained from the ground-based optical velocities. Accuracies of about +/- 3.5 km/s will be sufficient and should be obtainable with on-board Pt lamp calibrations performed at the same carousel settings at which the science data is recorded. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 6.

Data reduction and analysis plans. The ECF and GSFC facilities will be used for reducing the HST data. Routines for extracting spectral HRS data are available. Our goal is a detailed study of the superbubble dynamics using UV absorption lines arising throughout the superbubble LMC2 gas. We will use our profile fitting routines to fit multiple components of the UV absorption lines in spectral regions of adequate S/N ratio. For a given species, the fits will be done on as many transitions as possible, simultaneously. The velocity components will be measured with +/- 3.5 km/s accuracy, comparable to the velocity accuracy obtained for the optical filaments. The absorption line equivalent widths will be measured. From unsaturated absorption lines (e.g. NV), we will be able to determine ionic column densities in the LMC2 gaseous envelope and of diffuse clouds in the low density cavity. To construct our dynamical observational model of the superbubble LMC2, we will use the velocities of the ionized optical filaments from Fabry-Perot interferograms, and will compare those with the velocity components of the UV absorption lines for the same lines of sight. We will also use our ROSAT data of soft X-ray emission arising in the LMC that have the best sensitivity and resolution available today from space observations. The X-ray maps and the knowledge of the temperature distribution of the X-ray emitting gas are extremely important to combine with the UV absorption lines HST data in order to trace the supershell funnel walls and to understand the dynamics of the shocks that have caused the soft X-ray extended diffuse emission over and beyond the ionized LMC2 filaments and the HI cavity. Our results on the LMC2 dynamics will be compared to the predictions for supershell dynamics from recent theoretical models (Tomisaka and Ikeuchi 1989). New improved superbubble models will be constructed using a hydrodynamical code combined with a code for photoionisation and shocks in gas clouds (that have been used at ESO to study the absorption line clouds in extragalactic HII regions, the ISM and the intergalactic medium). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 8. Additional comments or special requests. We have determined the coordinates of all targets (astrometry from the GASP plates from STScI).

Smith has the following HST programs (as of August 1991): Program No. 1200 (GTO), "Search for Interstellar Molecules in the Spectra of Two B Stars", UNRELATED. Program No. 1201 (GTO), "Physical parameters in the Local Interstellar Medium", UNRELATED. Program No. 3024 (SAT), "Xi Per Interstellar Spectrum", UNRELATED. Observations were made by the GHRS of the cool, neutral gas in the line of sight to Xi Per. Heliocentric velocities and equivalent widths were measured for absorption lines of CI and SI. Synthetic spectra were computed and fitted to the observed CO 2-0 and 3-0 bands in the Fourth Positive System which were resolved by the GHRS into 3 and possibly 4 velocity components. Derived populations of the CI ground state fine structure levels and the CO ground state rotational levels were used to derive the densities of two of these velocity components. The component displaying the strongest C I absorption reveals extraordinarily high pressure (P/k > 4.3xE4 K/cm3). Along the same line of sight, the column densities were determined for neutral and singly ionized atoms using profile information in the form of velocity-dependent apparent column densities. Abundances determined from this analysis are very tightly constrained. GHRS ultraviolet absorption line measurements have become so accurate that the interpretations are now limited by the inaccuracies in atomic f-values and our knowledge of solar abundances. At velocities near 7.5 km/s ordinarily depleted elements are heavily depleted, but for velocities between 7.7 and 20 km/s the depletions decrease by a factor of 2 or more suggesting significant grain modification. At 25 km/s the abundances are nearly solar. "First Results from the GHRS: Interstellar C I, S I, and CO Toward Xi Persei and the Physical Conditions in Diffuse Clouds", Andrew M. Smith, Frederick C.
