Magnetic fields and UHECR propagation [PDF]
EPJ 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 ...

STELLA—Potential European contributions to a NASA-led interstellar probe
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2022 The discovery of a myriad of exoplanets in the past decades has revolutionized the understanding of our place in the Universe. How different are exoplants and do some of them harbor life, just like Earth? To do so, their parent stars must drive a stellar

Turbulence in the Diffuse Interstellar Medium [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2011 AbstractThe diffuse interstellar medium (ISM) hosts the first steps of interstellar chemistry and the seeds of dense structures. Since its turbulent pressure by far exceeds its thermal pressure, turbulence must play a prominent role in its evolution.

Search for thermonuclear burst oscillations in the Swift/BAT data set
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space SciencesThis study comprehensively analyzes type I X-ray bursts observed by Swift/BAT from 2005 to April 2024 to search for X-ray burst oscillations (XBOs) in neutron star low-mass X-ray binaries.

CF+ excitation in the interstellar medium
Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2020 The detection of CF+ in interstellar clouds potentially allows astronomers to infer the elemental fluorine abundance and the ionization fraction in ultraviolet-illuminated molecular gas. Because local thermodynamic equilibrium (LTE) conditions are hardly fulfilled in the interstellar medium (ISM), the accurate determination of the CF+ abundance ...

Discovery of a Long Thermonuclear X-Ray Burst from the Ultracompact Binary 4U 1850–087
The Astrophysical JournalWe report the detection of a long X-ray burst from the ultracompact binary 4U 1850–087. The type I X-ray burst was observed on MJD 60171.65 by the Monitor of All-sky X-ray Image and Neutron Star Interior Composition Explorer (NICER). We analyze the NICER

ISM Simulations: An Overview of Models [PDF]
, 2012 Until recently the dynamical evolution of the interstellar medium (ISM) was simulated using collisional ionization equilibrium (CIE) conditions. However, the ISM is a dynamical system, in which the plasma is naturally driven out of equilibrium due to ...
