Photocleavage of Aliphatic C–C Bonds in the Interstellar Medium

The Astrophysical Journal
Ultraviolet (UV) processing in the interstellar medium (ISM) induces the dehydrogenation of hydrocarbons. Aliphatics, including alkanes, are present in different interstellar environments, being prevalently formed in evolved stars; thus, the ...

CCD Photometry of the Open Cluster Tombaugh 5 in the Vilnius System

Open Astronomy, 2011
We present the results of eight-color CCD photometry of 674 stars in the direction of the open cluster Tombaugh 5 in Camelopardalis. The stars are observed in the Vilnius system supplemented by the broad-band I filter; the field is of 22’ diameter, the ...

Magnetic Fields in the Southern Coalsack and Beyond

The Astronomical Journal
Starlight polarimetry, when combined with accurate distance measurements, allows for exploration of the three-dimensional structure of local magnetic fields in great detail.

Observation of Diffuse Galactic Light Near the Galactic Center with ONC-T on Board Hayabusa2

The Astrophysical Journal
Diffuse Galactic light (DGL) is starlight scattered by interstellar dust. In visible wavelengths, earlier studies observed DGL toward regions of low optical depth in high Galactic latitude, and show marginal consistency with a theoretical model assuming ...

Tidal Disruption of “Snow Clouds” by Unassociated Stars

The Astrophysical Journal
It has been suggested that star-forming galaxies may host a substantial, dark reservoir of gas in the form of planetary-mass molecular clouds that are so cold that H _2 can condense.

The ratio of carbon monoxide to molecular hydrogen in interstellar dark clouds

The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 1978
LTE (C-13)O column densities are compared with the corresponding values of beam-convolved visual extinction at more than 100 locations within 38 different interstellar dark clouds. A roughly linear correlation is found to exist between these two quantities for visual extinctions in the range from about 1.5 to 5 mag.

Massive Star Formation Starts in Subvirial Dense Clumps Unless Resisted by Strong Magnetic Fields

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
Knowledge of the initial conditions of high-mass star formation is critical for theoretical models, but are not well observed. Built on our previous characterization of a Galaxy-wide sample of 463 candidate high-mass starless clumps (HMSCs), here we ...

Masses of interstellar gas clouds

, 1983
The equilibrium masses of the interstellar gas clouds have been calculated when the clouds are imbedded with magnetic fields. It is found that the masses of these clouds may be of the order of several thousand solar masses.
