• A UNIFIED REPRESENTATION OF GAS-PHASE ELEMENT DEPLETIONS IN THE INTERSTELLAR MEDIUM (2009, background): “…stars N(H I) is known, and values of N(H) could be salvaged on the premise that empirically the fraction of hydrogen in molecular form is very small (f(H2) ≡ 2N(H2)/[N(H I) + 2N(H2)] < 0.1) when the star’s B − V color excess is less than 0.05 (Savage et al. 1977); see also Rachford et al. (2009).”

• INVESTIGATING THE COSMIC-RAY IONIZATION RATE IN THE GALACTIC DIFFUSE INTERSTELLAR MEDIUM THROUGH OBSERVATIONS OF H+3 (2011, background): “Absorption lines from electronic transitions of H2 have been observed in the UV along many of the sight lines in this study (from which the aforementioned values of T01 are derived; Savage et al. 1977; Rachford et al. 2002, 2009).”

All-sky model of thermal dust emission (2013, background): “The product of E(B−V)/R and the diffuse ISM estimates of LH gives the ratio E(B−V)/NH = (1.42–1.46)×10−22 mag cm2, a factor just 0.82–0.85 lower than that measured using background stars for lines of sight with considerably larger E(B−V) (Bohlin et al. 1978; Rachford et al. 2009).”

• Calibration of X-ray absorption in our Galaxy (2013, background): “Most of the FUSE observations of bright sources reported by Rachford et al. (2002, 2009) are close to the X-ray profile indicating that when the signal to noise and sensitivity are good all the molecular hydrogen can be detected in UV absorption.”
