An Ultraviolet Study of CO Chemistry in the Magellanic Clouds

How does molecular cloud chemistry change with metallicity? In this work, we study the relation between molecular hydrogen (H _2 ) and carbon monoxide (CO) at 1/2 and 1/5 solar metallicity using ultraviolet absorption spectroscopy obtained as part of the UV Legacy Library of Young Stars as Essential...
