On the Formation of Interstellar Gas Clouds [PDF]
Reviews of Modern Physics, 1958 The characteristic features of interstellar gas clouds—existence of large density fluctuations, their connection with cosmic dust, stretching along the magnetic fields, and so on—may be described by a shock wave theory in interstellar space.The author has developed a theory of stationary shock waves accompanied by losses of energy by means of radiation.

Dust in the Local Interstellar Wind [PDF]
, 1999 The gas-to-dust mass ratios found for interstellar dust within the Solar System, versus values determined astronomically for the cloud around the Solar System, suggest that large and small interstellar grains have separate histories, and that large ...

CaFe interstellar clouds* [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2007 A new kind of interstellar cloud is proposed. These are rare (just a few examples among ∼300 lines of sight) objects with the Ca I 4227-A, Fe I 3720-A and 3860-A lines stronger than those of K I (near 7699 A) and Na I (near 3302 A). We propose the name ‘CaFe’ for these clouds.

FORMATION OF SMALL-SCALE STRUCTURES IN THEINTERSTELLAR MEDIUM
Odessa Astronomical Publications, 2008 We consider formation of small scale structures in the process of interstellar cloud destruction by shock waves. We calculate statistical properties of HI column densities, optical depth and brightness temperature in 21 cm line.

Evidence for the naphthalene cation in a region of the interstellar medium with anomalous microwave emission [PDF]

Turbulence in Interstellar Clouds [PDF]
International Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1989 Above masses of the order of lOO M⊙, molecular clouds have masses and sizes which scale like those of self-gravitating polytropes bounded by an external pervading pressure. It is unlikely that this scaling is due to mere observational bias. But the physics underlying this behaviour is far from being understood.

Large Interstellar Polarisation Survey, II : UV/optical study of cloud-to-cloud variations of dust in the diffuse ISM [PDF]
, 2018 It is well known that the dust properties of the diffuse interstellar medium exhibit variations towards different sight-lines on a large scale. We have investigated the variability of the dust characteristics on a small scale, and from cloud-to-cloud. We
