Turbulence in the interstellar medium [PDF]

open access: yesNonlinear Processes in Geophysics, 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 ...

Supernovae and the Interstellar Medium [PDF]

open access: bronzeSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1970
The nature of the supernova event is still poorly understood. A variety of models has been proposed and the interpretation of the observations remains ambiguous. About all that is certain is that in the supernova event much of the matter is ejected at speeds of typically 10 000 km sec−1 and that about 1049 erg of visible light is emitted. The amount of

The Interstellar Medium of Dwarf Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesGalaxies, 2022
Dwarf galaxies are by far the most numerous galaxies in the Universe, showing properties that are quite different from those of their larger and more luminous cousins. This review focuses on the physical and chemical properties of the interstellar medium

Measurement of MHD Turbulence Properties by Synchrotron Radiation Techniques

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2022
It is well known that magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence is ubiquitous in astrophysical environments. The correct understanding of the fundamental properties of MHD turbulence is a pre-requisite for revealing many key astrophysical processes.

Mass Distribution for Single-lined Hot Subdwarf Stars in LAMOST

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Masses for 664 single-lined hot subdwarf stars identified in LAMOST were calculated by comparing synthetic fluxes from spectral energy distribution with observed fluxes from a Virtual Observatory service.

Hot Subdwarf Stars Identified in LAMOST DR8 with Single-lined and Composite Spectra

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
A total of 222 hot subdwarf stars were identified with LAMOST DR8 spectra, among which 131 stars show composite spectra and have been decomposed, while 91 stars present single-lined spectra.

Interstellar Polarization Survey. II. General Interstellar Medium

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
Magnetic fields permeate the entire Galaxy and are essential to, for example, the regulation of several stages of the star formation process and cosmic-ray transportation.
