Turbulent amplification of interstellar magnetic fields [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1991
We show that the radiative cooling properties of the interstellar gas lead naturally to a scaling law for the magnetic field of the form B ∝ n 1/2 , if the magnetic field is amplified by a ...

Interstellar Magnetic Field [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1968
Roger and Shuter1 have pointed out that the recent measurement (Smith2) of the interstellar magnetic field from the Faraday rotation of the plane polarized radio waves from the pulsar CP 0950 may be interpreted as a combination of ionospheric and interstellar rotation.

Magnetic fields and UHECR propagation [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2023
I review the main observational tools used to detect and measure magnetic fields in the interstellar medium of our Galaxy (considering both the Galactic disk and the Galactic halo), in the interstellar medium of external galaxies, and in the ...

A Large Magnetic Hump in the VLISM Observed by Voyager 1 in 2020–2022

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Voyager 1 has been moving through the very local interstellar medium (VLISM) for approximately one solar cycle, from 122.58 au on 2012/DOY 238 (August 25) to 158.5 au on 2023.0. Previously, an abrupt increase (“jump”) in the magnetic field strength B and

SOFIA Observations of 30 Doradus. II. Magnetic Fields and Large-scale Gas Kinematics

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The heart of the Large Magellanic Cloud, 30 Doradus, is a complex region with a clear core-halo structure. Feedback from the stellar cluster R136 has been shown to be the main source of energy creating multiple parsec-scale expanding-shells in the outer ...

The Orientation of the Local Interstellar Magnetic Field [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 2007
The orientation of the local interstellar magnetic field introduces asymmetries in the heliosphere that affect the location of heliospheric radio emissions and the streaming direction of ions from the termination shock of the solar wind. We combined observations of radio emissions and energetic particle streaming with extensive three-dimensional ...

Magnetic Misalignment of Interstellar Dust Filaments

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present evidence for scale-independent misalignment of interstellar dust filaments and magnetic fields. We estimate the misalignment by comparing millimeter-wave dust-polarization measurements from Planck with filamentary structures identified in ...

Plasmoid Instability in the Multiphase Interstellar Medium

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
The processes controlling the complex clump structure, phase distribution, and magnetic field geometry that develop across a broad range of scales in the turbulent interstellar medium (ISM) remain unclear.

Science Opportunities for IMAP-Lo Observations of Interstellar Neutral Helium, Neon, and Oxygen during a Maximum of Solar Activity

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023
Direct-sampling observations of interstellar neutral (ISN) species and their secondary populations give information about the physical state of the local interstellar medium and processes occurring in the outer heliosheath.

Turbulence in the interstellar medium [PDF]

open access: yes, 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 ...
