Boron abundances in diffuse interstellar clouds [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2009
AbstractWe present a comprehensive survey of B abundances in diffuse interstellar clouds from HST/STIS observations along 56 Galactic sight lines. Our sample is the result of a complete search of archival STIS data for the B II λ1362 resonance line, with each detection confirmed by the presence of absorption from other dominant ions at the same ...

Discovery and Initial Investigation of a New Low Surface Brightness Planetary Nebula Candidate at High Galactic Latitude

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, Volume 347, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Planetary nebulae represent a late evolutionary phase of low‐ to intermediate‐mass stars. In this article, we present the serendipitous discovery of a previously unknown, faint potential Galactic planetary nebula (PN) in the constellation Camelopardalis, identified during a survey‐inspection, aiming at the detection of dwarf companions of the ...

The H2 Glow of a Quiescent Molecular Cloud Observed with JWST

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
We report JWST MIRI/MRS observations of the H _2 S (1) 17.04 μ m transition in two regions in the boundary of the Taurus molecular cloud. The two regions, denoted “Edge” (near the relatively sharp boundary of the ^13 CO J  = 1 → 0 emission) and “Peak ...

High-resolution Observations of H i in the IC 63 Reflection Nebula

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
Photodissociation regions (PDRs), where the (far-)ultraviolet light from hot young stars interact with the gas in surrounding molecular clouds, provide laboratories for understanding the nature and role of feedback by star formation on the interstellar ...

Modeling sulfur depletion in interstellar clouds [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2019
Context. The elemental depletion of interstellar sulfur from the gas phase has been a recurring challenge for astrochemical models. Observations show that sulfur remains relatively non-depleted with respect to its cosmic value throughout the diffuse and translucent stages of an interstellar molecular cloud, but its atomic and molecular gas-phase ...

Confined Chemistry in Space: Zeolite‐Supported Fe13 Nanoclusters Modulate CS Reactivity

open access: yesSmall Structures, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2026.
The study explores how an Fe13 cluster confined in chabazite reshapes the reaction of CS and H2 under astrochemical conditions. Confinement promotes C–S bond cleavage over hydrogenation, directing chemistry toward CH4 and H2S formation. Additional CS enables CS2 and C2 species. Microkinetic analysis identifies protoplanetary environments where zeolites

Strength Ratios of Diffuse Interstellar Bands in Slightly Reddened Objects

open access: yesUniverse
The disk of the Milky Way fills the interstellar medium in the form of discrete clouds, many (∼30) light-years across. The average density of this medium is 1 hydrogen atom per cm3 (Oort limit), in the clouds—several dozen atoms, and between the clouds ...

Atmospheric and Deposition Responses of 10Be to Volcanic Eruptions Inferred From the Aerosol‐Climate Model ECHAM6.3‐HAM2.3‐SALSA2.0: 10Be

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 4, 28 February 2026.
Abstract 10Be deposition in ice cores is widely used for solar reconstructions, but its interpretation is complicated by volcanic influences. Using the state‐of‐the‐art aerosol‐climate model ECHAM6.3‐HAM2.3‐SALSA2.0: 10Be, we assess the impacts of three major volcanic eruptions: Agung (1963), El Chichón (1982) and Pinatubo (1991). All eruptions enhance

Modeling the Optical Colors of Galactic Cirrus Clouds in the Stripe 82 Region

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Observations have shown that the optical colors of Galactic cirrus clouds differ significantly from those of extragalactic sources; thus, they can be used to distinguish Galactic cirrus from extragalactic low surface brightness (LSB) features.

On the Spatial Distribution of 13CO Structures within 12CO Molecular Clouds

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We look into the 2851 ^12 CO molecular clouds harboring ^13 CO structures to reveal the distribution of the projected angular separations and radial velocity separations between their internal ^13 CO structures.
