Sodium depletion within diffuse interstellar clouds

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1975
Having derived estimates of the densities and radiation fields within several interstellar clouds from the observed populations of the H$sub 2$ rotational levels, we can estimate the amount of sodium and calcium depletion within different clouds.

Sampling the volcanic plumes at Io: Impact speeds and shock conditions

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 2, Page 241-271, February 2026.
Abstract The desire to sample material from the interior of Io, by flying through its volcanic plumes, requires consideration of the flyby speed and the types of sample collection techniques that can be utilized. Low speed collection (1–2.5 km s−1) would require an orbit around Io itself, which is unlikely due to the accumulated radiation dose that ...

Surveys of the Milky Way and Magellanic System in the λ21-cm line of atomic hydrogen

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2012
In the next three years, surveys of the Northern and Southern skies using focal plane arrays on aperture synthesis radio telescopes will lead to a breakthrough in our knowledge of the warm and cool atomic phases of the interstellar medium and their ...

On the chemistry of hydrides of N atoms and O$^+$ ions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Previous work by various authors has suggested that the detection by Herschel/HIFI of nitrogen hydrides along the low density lines of sight towards G10.6-0.4 (W31C) cannot be accounted for by gas-phase chemical models.

Exploring the Effects of Reduced Gravitational Field Impacts on Convective Heat Transfer: A Comprehensive Review

open access: yesHeat Transfer, Volume 55, Issue 1, Page 764-774, January 2026.
ABSTRACT This review explores the impact of gravitational instability on convective heat transfer, integrating existing research results and theoretical models. Gravitational instability is vital in promoting or hindering convective actions in different systems, such as atmospheric events, ocean currents, and industrial processes.

The Mid-Infrared Extinction Law and its Variation in the Coalsack Nebula [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In recent years the wavelength dependence of interstellar extinction from the ultraviolet (UV), optical, through the near- and mid-infrared (IR) has been studied extensively.

Photoionization and photodissociation in diffuse interstellar clouds

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1981
An accurate treatment of radiative transfer is used to explore the effects of grain scattering properties on the photoionization and photodissociation efficiencies of atomic and molecular constituents in diffuse clouds and to calculate the rates of heat deposition by photoelectric emission from grains.

Entropy Export and Chemical Reactions in Plasmas

open access: yesPlasma Processes and Polymers, Volume 23, Issue 1, January 2026.
In a non‐equilibrium plasma, energy is transferred to molecules by electron‐impact (1), collisions among excited molecules (2), and Joule heating (3). The entropy balance for this open system relates the energy available per molecule to changes in entropy, which determines plasma‐based gas conversion. ABSTRACT Is plasma truly a “fourth state of matter”?

Adsorption of Helium on Cationic or Anionic Tetracene and Pentacene

open access: yesSmall Structures, Volume 7, Issue 1, January 2026.
How does the arrangement of helium atoms that are adsorbed on tetracene or pentacene ions change with increasing coverage? When does the adsorption layer change from 1D to 2D, and to 3D? Is the transition abrupt? Are the helium atoms localized? Is the arrangement the same for cations and anions? What changes as the acene grows in length?

The Origin of the Cluster of Local Interstellar Clouds

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The interstellar medium within ≈15 pc of the Sun consists of a complex of 15 diffuse, partially ionized clouds. Located within the Local Bubble, these clouds, known as the Cluster of Local Interstellar Clouds (CLIC), constitute the interstellar ...
