The negative result of a search for radiative decay of a light neutral fermion, that might be the neutrino (if massive) or the photino, gravitationally bound to our Galaxy is discussed. The limit obtained for a particle of mass between 12.5 and 21.5 eV is 10 to the 18th power yr. Data on UV background in the range 1250 to 2000 A show the presence of continuum emission and diffuse line emission at high galactic latitude, identifiable with the lines C IV at 1549 A, and N III at 1749 A. The continuum level sharply rises at 1680 A, to 1700 + or - 250 ph/sq cm sec str A and remains constant up to 2000 A. Below 1680 A, no emission is found with an upper limit of 300 units.
