Interstellar cloud collisions [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 1985
On decrit les resultats d'une simulation numerique en 3 dimensions de nuages interstellaires isothermes en l'absence de champs magnetiques. Les collisions, en general, ne donnent pas naissance a un ou plusieurs nuages.

Matrix Isolation and Solvation of the Benzonitrile Radical Anion. [PDF]

open access: yesChemistry
Hydrated electrons are potent reducing agents that may play significant roles in chemical evolution within astrochemical and prebiotic environments. Benzonitrile, a molecule present in the interstellar medium (ISM), can capture electrons in amorphous water ice at cryogenic temperatures, forming a radical anion.

Dissociative Recombination of Rotationally Cold OH+ and Its Implications for the Cosmic Ray Ionization Rate in Diffuse Clouds

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
Observations of OH ^+ are used to infer the interstellar cosmic ray ionization rate in diffuse atomic clouds, thereby constraining the propagation of cosmic rays through and the shielding by interstellar clouds, as well as the low energy cosmic ray ...

Complex Reactive Acids from Methanol and Carbon Dioxide Ice: Glycolic Acid (HOCH2COOH) and Carbonic Acid Monomethyl Ester (CH3OCOOH)

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The formation of complex organic molecules by simulated secondary electrons generated in the track of galactic cosmic rays was investigated in interstellar ice analogs composed of methanol and carbon dioxide.

SPITZER observations of dust destruction in the Puppis A supernova remnant [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The interaction of the Puppis A supernova remnant (SNR) with a neighboring molecular cloud provides a unique opportunity to measure the amount of grain destruction in an SNR shock.

Interstellar Scintillation and Clouds of the Interstellar Turbulent Plasma [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Astronomical Union Colloquium, 2001
AbstractData on interstellar diffraction and refraction scintillation of pulsars are analyzed. Comparison between theory and the observational data shows that two types of spectra for electron density fluctuations are realized in the interstellar medium: pure power law and piecewise with a break. The distribution of turbulent plasma in the Galaxy has a

CLOUD STRUCTURE OF INTERSTELLAR MATTER. OBSERVATIONAL PARAMETERS

open access: yesOdessa Astronomical Publications, 2017
Parameters of 7600 HI clouds were determined on the base of HI RATAN-600 Survey in the second and third quadrants of galactic longitudes. The spectra of cloud linear diameters, HI densities and masses are obtained first for such huge population of clouds.

Discovery of the Elusive Carbonic Acid (HOCOOH) in Space

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
A quarter century after the detection of the last interstellar carboxylic acid, acetic acid (CH _3 COOH), we report the discovery of a new one, the cis-trans form of carbonic acid (HOCOOH), toward the Galactic center molecular cloud G+0.693–0.027. HOCOOH

Technology requirements of exploration beyond Neptune by solar sail propulsion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
This paper provides a set of requirements for the technology development of a solar sail propelled Interstellar Heliopause Probe mission. The mission is placed in the context of other outer solar systems missions, ranging from a Kuiper Belt mission ...

Ionize Hard: Interstellar PO+ Detection

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2022
We report the first detection of the phosphorus monoxide ion (PO+) in the interstellar medium. Our unbiased and very sensitive spectral survey toward the G+0.693–0.027 molecular cloud covers four different rotational transitions of this molecule, two of ...
