Measuring the fractal structure of interstellar clouds [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1991 To study the structure of interstellar clouds we used the so-called perimeter-area relation to estimate fractal dimensions. We studied the reliability of the method by applying it to artificial fractals and discuss some of the problems and pitfalls. Results for two different cloud types (high-

Turbulence in the interstellar medium [PDF]
, 2014 Turbulence is ubiquitous in the insterstellar medium and plays a major role in several processes such as the formation of dense structures and stars, the stability of molecular clouds, the amplification of magnetic fields, and the re-acceleration and ...

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.

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.

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

Observations of the Local Interstellar Cloud [PDF]
International Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1997 AbstractConstraints on the ambient (circumsolar) interstellar medium can be derived from observations of interstellar neutrals or their derivatives in the heliosphere. New results have been recently obtained which, when combined with optical and UV observations of the nearby stars (HST-GHRS, EUVE), remove long-standing contradictions and allow us to ...

Learning from model grids: Tracers of the ionization fraction in the ISM [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2022 The ionization fraction in neutral interstellar clouds is a key physical parameter controlling multiple physical and chemical processes, and varying by orders of magnitude from the UV irradiated surface of the cloud to its cosmic-ray dominated central ...

The 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 ...

Photodissociation of OH in Interstellar Clouds
The Astrophysical Journal, 1984 Calculations are presented of the lifetime of OH against photodissociation by the interstellar radiation field as a function of depth into interstellar clouds containing grains of various scattering properties. The effectiveness of the different photodissociation channels changes with depth into a cloud. Absorption into the repulsive - state is usually
