The tables in this directory present the ionization states of the
interstellar gas at the solar location, for the 25 models of Slavin
and Frisch, "The Ionization of Nearby Interstellar Gas", Slavin and
Frisch, 2002, ApJ, v565, pp 364 - 379.  These tables are the
equivalent of Table 8 in this paper.

A second paper on this topic has now been accepted by ApJ, Frisch and
Slavin, 2002, ApJ, in press: "Chemical Composition and Gas-to-Dust
Mass Ratio of Nearby Interstellar Matter".
