Zusammenfassung: | The past decade has seen an explosion of discoveries and new insights into
the diffuse gas within galaxies, galaxy clusters, and the filaments composing
the Cosmic Web. A new decade will bring fresh opportunities to further this
progress towards developing a comprehensive view of the composition, thermal
state, and physical processes of diffuse gas in the Universe. Ultraviolet (UV)
spectroscopy, probing diffuse 10^4-10^6 K gas at high spectral resolution, is
uniquely poised to (1) witness environmental galaxy quenching processes in
action, such as strangulation and tidal- and ram-pressure stripping, (2)
directly account for the baryon content of galaxy clusters in the cold-warm
