The Role of Magnetic Field in Molecular Cloud Formation and Evolution

Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2019
We review the role that magnetic field may have on the formation and evolution of molecular clouds. After a brief presentation and main assumptions leading to ideal MHD equations, their most important correction, namely the ion-neutral drift is described.

Advancing Heliophysics and Space Weather Modeling Through Open Science

Space Weather, Volume 24, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract We present a community‐wide effort to develop a strategy and action plan to advance heliophysics and space weather modeling through open science. While open science has the potential to enhance the quality and pace of scientific discovery, its application to scientific modeling requires more careful consideration regarding open data and open ...

Interstellar Filaments [PDF]

, 2019
In recent years, interest in studying interstellar filaments has greatly increased, because, thanks to the observational data obtained with new instruments, it became clear that they play a key role in the star formation processes.

An Origin of Narrow Extended Structure in the Interstellar Medium: An Interstellar Contrail Created by a Fast-moving Massive Object

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We investigate the thermal condensation caused by a massive object that passes through the interstellar medium with high velocity, and propose a mechanism for creating a filamentary gaseous object, or interstellar contrail.

Mind and Cosmos as Throughput Systems: A Convergence Through the Throughput Model

Systems Research and Behavioral Science, Volume 43, Issue 3, Page 1212-1228, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper advances a conceptual and mathematical foundations approach by applying the throughput model (TPM) to cosmic phenomena, reframing the universe as an extended information processing system. TPM's four stages, Perception, Information, Judgement and Decision Choice, are reformulated in explicit information‐theoretic and dynamical ...

MAGNETICALLY DOMINATED PARALLEL INTERSTELLAR FILAMENTS IN THE INFRARED DARK CLOUD G14.225-0.506* [PDF]

The Astrophysical Journal, 2016
ABSTRACT The infrared dark cloud G14.225-0.506 (IRDC G14.2) displays a remarkable complex of parallel dense molecular filaments projected on the plane of the sky. Previous studies of dust emission and molecular lines have speculated whether magnetic fields could have played an important role in the formation of such elongated structures,

A Pan-galaxy Study of Synthetic Giant Molecular Filaments: A Turbulence-dominated Life Cycle

The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
Recent surveys of the Galactic plane have revealed dozens of giant molecular filaments (GMFs), with lengths ranging from tens to hundreds of parsecs, yet their origins and life cycles remain debated. In this work, we analyze over 700 GMFs identified from

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

Astronomische 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 ...

Photometric and Spectroscopic Observations of a Diffuse Interstellar Filament in the Foreground of the Magellanic Clouds [PDF]

The Astrophysical Journal, 1998
We report the results of a photometric and spectroscopic study of stars that appear toward an infrared bright filament in the region between the LMC and SMC in the constellation Mensa. The filament was chosen for study because of its large angular size, intense IR emission, and proximity to an X-ray source observed using ROSAT.

From Filaments to Clumps: Filament Properties with Synthetic Herschel Observations

The Astrophysical Journal
Systematic surveys of filaments have been conducted to study their properties and their relationship to the process of star formation. In this paper, we use synthetic Herschel observations derived from three-dimensional (3D) numerical simulations to ...
