THE IMPLICATIONS OF A HIGH COSMIC-RAY IONIZATION RATE IN DIFFUSE INTERSTELLAR CLOUDS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Diffuse interstellar clouds show large abundances of H+3 which can only be maintained by a high ionization rate of H2. Cosmic rays are the dominant ionization mechanism in this environment, so the large ionization rate implies a high cosmic-ray flux, and

ON THE DENSITY DISTRIBUTION IN STAR-FORMING INTERSTELLAR CLOUDS [PDF]

open access: yesTeraGrid Conference, 2010
We use deep adaptive mesh refinement simulations of isothermal self-gravitating supersonic turbulence to study the imprints of gravity on the mass density distribution in molecular clouds.

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

Tidal Disruption of “Snow Clouds” by Unassociated Stars

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
It has been suggested that star-forming galaxies may host a substantial, dark reservoir of gas in the form of planetary-mass molecular clouds that are so cold that H _2 can condense.

How catching the interstellar wind in the inner solar system led the way on a road to interdisciplinary research between heliophysics and astrophysics

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2023
Combined in situ observations of the interstellar wind through the solar system and of its pickup ions (PUIs), implanted after ionization in the solar wind, explain, in comparison with interstellar absorption lines of nearby stars, that the Sun is in an ...

Two-component model of the interaction of an interstellar cloud with surrounding hot plasma

open access: yes, 2011
We present a two-component gasdynamic model of an interstellar cloud embedded in a hot plasma. It is assumed that the cloud consists of atomic hydrogen gas, interstellar plasma is quasineutral.

On the structure of the turbulent interstellar clouds . Influence of the equation of state on the dynamics of 3D compressible flows [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Context. It is well established that the atomic interstellar hydrogen is filling the galaxies and constitutes the building blocks of molecular clouds. Aims. To understand the formation and the evolution of molecular clouds, it is necessary to investigate

Formation of interstellar clouds: Parker instability with phase transitions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We numerically follow the nonlinear evolution of the Parker instability in the presence of phase transitions from a warm to a cold H i interstellar medium in two spatial dimensions.

Valence Threshold Photoionization Spectra of C5$_5$H and C5$_5$H2$_2$ Isomers

open access: yesChemPhysChem, Volume 27, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.
Mass‐selected threshold photoelectron spectra (TPES) of l‐C5H, HC5H, and c–C3H‐CCH were recorded using double‐imaging photoelectron‐photoion coincidence spectroscopy. These transient species were generated in situ by hydrogen abstraction from cyclopropylacetylene and 1,3‐pentadiyne.
