Future Exploration of the Outer Heliosphere and Very Local Interstellar Medium by Interstellar Probe. [PDF]

Space Sci Rev, 2023
A detailed overview of the knowledge gaps in our understanding of the heliospheric interaction with the largely unexplored Very Local Interstellar Medium (VLISM) are provided along with predictions of with the scientific discoveries that await.

Technology requirements of exploration beyond Neptune by solar sail propulsion [PDF]

, 2010
This paper provides a set of requirements for the technology development of a solar sail propelled Interstellar Heliopause Probe mission. The mission is placed in the context of other outer solar systems missions, ranging from a Kuiper Belt mission ...

Turbulence in the interstellar medium [PDF]

, 2014
Turbulence is ubiquitous in the insterstellar medium and plays a major role in several processes such as the formation of dense structures and stars, the stability of molecular clouds, the amplification of magnetic fields, and the re-acceleration and ...

Heating of the low-latitude solar wind by dissipation of turbulent magnetic fluctuations [PDF]

, 2001
We test a theory presented previously to account for the turbulent transport of magnetic fluctuation energy in the solar wind and the related dissipation and heating of the ambient ion population. This theory accounts for the injection of magnetic energy

Local Interstellar Medium: Six Years of Direct Sampling by IBEX [PDF]

, 2015
The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has been directly observing neutral atoms from the local interstellar medium for the last six years (2009–2014).

Evidence of direct detection of interstellar deuterium in the local interstellar medium by IBEX [PDF]

, 2013
We report the first in situ measurements of neutral deuterium originating in the local interstellar medium (LISM) in Earth’s orbit. These measurements were performed with the IBEX-Lo camera on NASA’s interstellar boundary explorer (IBEX) satellite.

Molecular Collisions in the Interstellar Medium [PDF]

, 2007
In the interstellar medium - the space between the stars in galaxies - new stars are born from material that is replenished by the debris ejected by stars when they die.

A weak turbulence theory for incompressible magnetohydrodynamics [PDF]

, 2000
We derive a weak turbulence formalism for incompressible magnetohydrodynamics. Three-wave interactions lead to a system of kinetic equations for the spectral densities of energy and helicity. The kinetic equations conserve energy in all wavevector planes

Computational Molecule-Ice Interactions Within the Interstellar Medium [PDF]

, 2022
More than two hundred molecular species have been found in the interstellar medium (ISM). Study of the interactions of small molecules and radicals with dust grains carries paramount significance in our understanding of the formation of larger organic ...

High spatial resolution galactic 3D extinction mapping with IPHAS [PDF]

, 2008
We present an algorithm (MEAD, for 'Mapping Extinction Against Distance') which will determine intrinsic (r' - i') colour, extinction, and distance for early-A to K4 stars extracted from the IPHAS r'/ i'/H alpha photometric data base.
