Popis: The CAFE (Census of warm-hot intergalactic medium, Accretion, and Feedback Explorer) and LyRIC (Lyman UV Radiation from Interstellar medium and Circum-galactic medium) have been proposed to the space agencies in China respectively. CAFE was first proposed as a joint scientific CAS-ESA small space mission in 2015. LyRIC was proposed as the independent external payload operating on the Chinese Space Station (CSS) in 2019. Both missions are dedicated to mapping the Lyman UV emissions ( ionized oxygen (OVI) resonance lines at 103.2 and 103.8 nm, and Lyman series) for the diffuse sources either in our Galaxy or the circum-galactic mediums of the nearby galaxies. We present the primary science objectives, mission concepts, the enabling technologies, as well as the current status.
