Metals vs. Metals
More natural to compare NO,X to metals
Use weakly-ionised metal lines to trace neutral gas (Zn II, S II, Si II or Fe II )
Correct for dust-depletion
Convert metal column densities to NH
(assuming solar abundances):NH,MII versus NH,X

What is contribution to soft X-ray absorption from highly ionised gas?

Ionised gas is in highly ionised state i.e. not seen in optical
X-ray absorbed by intervening gas external to host galaxy
Intervening galaxies along line-of-sight (Campana+12)
A Warm Hot Intergalactic Medium within local Universe (Bahar+11)
Milky Way soft X-ray absorption is underestimated
What is the origin of the soft X-ray excess?

Conclusions
Rich sample of GRB optical and X-ray afterglow spectra Can probe ionisation state and relative abundances of host galaxy gas Can probe AV distribution and dust extinction law across cosmic time
Soft X-ray column densities typically an order of magnitude larger than neutral gas column densities Majority of host gas is in a super ionised state ? Soft X-rays absorbed by gas external to host; intervening galaxies, local
WHIM, Milky Way?
Line-of-sight dust extinction properties (AV, extinction curve) dependent on global host galaxy properties? Older, more evolved galaxies have larger dust extinction and AV/NH,
flatter extinction curves, more pronounced 2175Å bump
