Optical and HI studies of high- and intermediate-velocity gas towards Complex A
We present high-resolution optical and 21-cm Hi spectra of sevenearly-type stellar sightlines towards the high-velocity cloud Complex A,at distances of up to 4.6 kpc from the Galactic plane. We do notoptically detect the -160 kms^-1 interstellar gas associated withComplex A, and so are unable to establish limits on its distance.However, we do detect gas associated with the Low Latitude IntermediateVelocity Arch, placing it at z<0.9kpc, and also establish distancelimits (z<=1.2-3.3kpc) on several other intermediate- andhigh-velocity clouds in this region that have not been cataloguedpreviously.
