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 ...

The Interstellar Environment of our Galaxy [PDF]

open access: yes, 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 ...

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 ...

Determination of interstellar pickup ion distributions in the solar wind with SOHO and Cluster [PDF]

open access: yesAnnales Geophysicae, 1996
Over the last 10 years, the experimental basis for the study of the local interstellar medium has been substantially enhanced by the direct detection of interstellar pickup ions and of interstellar neutral helium within the heliosphere.

Infrared Emission from Interstellar Dust. II. The Diffuse Interstellar Medium [PDF]

open access: yes, 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 local interstellar medium with diffuse interstellar bands [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly 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).

Mapping The Interstellar Medium With Near-Infrared Diffuse Interstellar Bands [PDF]

open access: yes, 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.

Cosmic-ray driven dynamo in the medium of irregular galaxy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We investigate the cosmic ray driven dynamo in the interstellar medium of irregular galaxy. The observations (Chyzy et al. 2000, 2003) show that the magnetic field in irregular galaxies is present and its value reaches the same level as in spiral ...

Presumed Detection of C5 Molecule in the Interstellar Medium

open access: yesThe 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 ...
