The interstellar and circumnuclear medium of active nuclei traced by H i 21 cm absorption [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astronomy and Astrophysics Review, 2018
This review summarises what we have learnt in the last two decades based on H i 21 cm absorption observations about the cold interstellar medium (ISM) in the central regions of active galaxies and about the interplay between this gas and the active ...

Low temperature MIR to submillimeter mass absorption coefficient of interstellar dust analogues [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2017
A wealth of data from the Herschel and Planck satellites and now from ALMA, revealing cold dust thermal emission, is available for astronomical environments ranging from interstellar clouds, cold clumps, circumstellar envelops, and protoplanetary disks ...

How catching the interstellar wind in the inner solar system led the way on a road to interdisciplinary research between heliophysics and astrophysics

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2023
Combined in situ observations of the interstellar wind through the solar system and of its pickup ions (PUIs), implanted after ionization in the solar wind, explain, in comparison with interstellar absorption lines of nearby stars, that the Sun is in an ...

Presumed Detection of C5 Molecule in the Interstellar Medium

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2022
The paper suggests the presence of the carbon chain C _5 molecule in translucent, interstellar H i clouds. This species, the only five atom interstellar molecule, observable in dark, translucent clouds, seems to be observable in reasonably dense clouds ...

Early-type stars observed in the ESO UVES Paranal Observatory Project - V. Time-variable interstellar absorption [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The structure and properties of the diffuse interstellar medium (ISM) on small scales, sub-au to 1 pc, are poorly understood. We compare interstellar absorption-lines, observed towards a selection of O- and B-type stars at two or more epochs, to search ...

Absorption and scattering by interstellar dust in the silicon K-edge of GX 5-1 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Context. We study the absorption and scattering of X-ray radiation by interstellar dust particles, which allows us to access the physical and chemical properties of dust. The interstellar dust composition is not well understood, especially on the densest

Oxygen, neon, and iron X-ray absorption in the local interstellar medium [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We present a detailed study of X-ray absorption in the local interstellar medium by analyzing the X-ray spectra of 24 galactic sources obtained with the Chandra High Energy Transmission Grating Spectrometer and the XMM-Newton Reflection Grating ...

PROBING X-RAY ABSORPTION AND OPTICAL EXTINCTION IN THE INTERSTELLAR MEDIUM USING CHANDRA OBSERVATIONS OF SUPERNOVA REMNANTS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We present a comprehensive study of interstellar X-ray extinction using the extensive Chandra supernova remnant (SNR) archive and use our results to refine the empirical relation between the hydrogen column density and optical extinction. In our analysis,

Calcium H & K and sodium D absorption induced by the interstellar and circumgalactic media of the Milky Way [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We map out calcium II & sodium I absorption (Fraunhofer H, K & D lines) induced by both the interstellar medium and the circumgalactic medium of the Milky Way.
