The gas-to-extinction ratio and the gas distribution in the Galaxy

Abstract We investigate the relation between the optical extinction (A V ) and the hydrogen column density (N H) determined from X-ray observations of a large sample of Galactic sightlines towards 35 supernova remnants, 6 planetary nebulae and 70 X-ray binaries for which N H was determined in the li...
