Turbulence in the interstellar medium [PDF]
Nonlinear 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 ...

The Interstellar Environment of our Galaxy [PDF]
, 2001 We review the current knowledge and understanding of the interstellar medium of our galaxy. We first present each of the three basic constituents - ordinary matter, cosmic rays, and magnetic fields - of the interstellar medium, laying emphasis on their ...

Infrared Emission from Interstellar Dust. II. The Diffuse Interstellar Medium [PDF]
, 2001 We present a quantitative model for the infrared emission from dust in the diffuse interstellar medium. The model consists of a mixture of amorphous silicate grains and carbonaceous grains, each with a wide size distribution ranging from molecules ...

Mapping The Interstellar Medium With Near-Infrared Diffuse Interstellar Bands [PDF]
, 2015 We map the distribution and properties of the Milky Way's interstellar medium as traced by diffuse interstellar bands (DIBs) detected in near-infrared stellar spectra from the SDSS-III/APOGEE survey.

Mapping local interstellar medium with diffuse interstellar bands [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2020 ABSTRACT With the use of the data from archives, we studied the correlations between the equivalent widths of four diffuse interstellar bands (4430, 5780, 5797, 6284 $\mathring{\rm A}$) and properties of the target stars (colour excess values, distances, and Galactic coordinates).

Presumed Detection of C5 Molecule in the Interstellar Medium
The Astrophysical Journal, 2022 The paper suggests the presence of the carbon chain C _5 molecule in translucent, interstellar H i clouds. This species, the only five atom interstellar molecule, observable in dark, translucent clouds, seems to be observable in reasonably dense clouds ...
