Star formation across cosmic time

open access: yesFundamental Plasma Physics
The interstellar medium of galaxies is composed of multiple phases, including molecular, atomic, and ionized gas, as well as dust. Stars are formed within this medium from cold molecular gas clouds, which collapse due to their gravitational attraction ...

The Interstellar Environment of our Galaxy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
We review the current knowledge and understanding of the interstellar medium of our galaxy. We first present each of the three basic constituents - ordinary matter, cosmic rays, and magnetic fields - of the interstellar medium, laying emphasis on their ...

Spaceborne and spaceborn: Physiological aspects of pregnancy and birth during interplanetary flight

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Crewed interplanetary return missions that are on the planning horizon will take years, more than enough time for initiation and completion of a pregnancy. Pregnancy is viewed as a sequence of processes – fertilization, blastocyst formation, implantation, gastrulation, placentation, organogenesis, gross morphogenesis, birth and neonatal ...

The Local Group L-band Survey: The First Measurements of Localized Cold Neutral Medium Properties in the Low-metallicity Dwarf Galaxy NGC 6822

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Measuring the properties of the cold neutral medium (CNM) in low-metallicity galaxies provides insights into heating and cooling mechanisms in early Universe-like environments.

Magnetic Misalignment of Interstellar Dust Filaments

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present evidence for scale-independent misalignment of interstellar dust filaments and magnetic fields. We estimate the misalignment by comparing millimeter-wave dust-polarization measurements from Planck with filamentary structures identified in ...

Mapping the interstellar medium in galaxies with Herschel/SPIRE [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The standard method of mapping the interstellar medium in a galaxy, by observing the molecular gas in the CO 1-0 line and the atomic gas in the 21-cm line, is largely limited with current telescopes to galaxies in the nearby universe.

Tautomerization Kinetics of Thiouracils at Low Temperatures Driven Solely by Quantum‐Mechanical Tunnelling: Predictions of Suitable Candidates for Future Experiments

open access: yesInternational Journal of Chemical Kinetics, Volume 58, Issue 6, Page 269-277, June 2026.
ABSTRACT In the past two decades numerous experiments have been conducted on the kinetics of reactions occurring at low temperatures on inert matrices. In particular, unimolecular proton‐transfer photo‐reactions of compounds containing a carbon–sulfur double bond, or thione group C═S, can lead to the formation of higher energy isomers or tautomers with

H i Kinematics and the E(B − V)/N(H i) Ratio

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The λ 21 cm H i emission that is used to trace the gas-to-dust ratio at high Galactic latitudes has contributions from material beyond the Milky Way disk, with uncertain and likely subsolar metallicity and dust content.

Where Does the Energy Go during the Interstellar NH3 Formation on Water Ice? A Computational Study

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
In the coldest (10–20 K) regions of the interstellar medium, the icy surfaces of interstellar grains serve as solid-state supports for chemical reactions.

Physical Properties of Giant Molecular Clouds in the Large Magellanic Cloud [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The Magellanic Mopra Assessment (MAGMA) is a high angular resolution CO mapping survey of giant molecular clouds (GMCs) in the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds using the Mopra Telescope. Here we report on the basic physical properties of 125 GMCs in the
