Abstract (from CDS):

We investigate the X-ray absorption structure of oxygen in the interstellar medium by analyzing XMM - Newton observations of the low-mass X-ray binary Sco X-1. Simple models based on the O I atomic photoabsorption cross section from different sources are used to fit the data and evaluate the impact of the atomic data on the interpretation of the observations. We show that relatively small differences in the atomic calculations can yield spurious results, and that the most complete and accurate set of atomic cross sections successfully reproduce the observed data in the 21.0-24.5 Å wavelength region of the spectrum. Our fits indicate that the absorption is mainly due to neutral gas with an ionization parameter of ξ = 10–4 erg cm/s and an oxygen column density of NO~ (8-10)x1017/cm2. The models are able to reproduce both the K edge and the Kα absorption line from O I which are the two main features in this region. We find no conclusive evidence for absorption by anything other than atomic oxygen.
