Probing the diffuse interstellar medium with diffuse interstellar bands

This work investigates the small scale structure of the Diffuse Interstellar Medium. To do this optical spectroscopy is used to obtain spectra of early type stars which are used as background targets with which the Diffuse Interstellar Medium (ISM) is probed. The spectra obtained contain the highly...
