contents Whim Absorption And UV Quasar Spectra Sinhue Haro Corzo Mario Rodríguez Martínez Luc Binette Física, Astronomía y Matemáticas Large Galaxies : Active Intergalactic Medium Ultraviolet: General Scale Structure of the Universe The ionizing spectral energy distribution of quasars is known to exhibit a steepening in their energy distribution short-ward of 1200 Å. We study the possibility that a tenuous intergalactic absorption gas component, which we associate to the warm-hot intergalactig medium component, may contribute to all or only small part of this steepening. We find that most of the steepening is intrinsic to quasars but that the warm-hot intergalactig medium may produce a very small ux discontinuity near 1216 Å in the observer-frame. 2003 artículo científico 0185-1101 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=57101813 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=571 Revista Mexicana de Astronomía y Astrofísica application/pdf Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México Revista Mexicana de Astronomía y Astrofísica (México) Vol.18
