The Spectacular Ionized Interstellar Medium of NGC55 [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
We present deep Halpha+[NII], [SII] (6716,6731A) and [OII] (3726,3729A) images of the highly inclined, actively star--forming SBm galaxy NGC 55, located in the nearby Sculptor Group. Due to its proximity, NGC 55 provides a unique opportunity to study the

Two Types of q$$ q $$‐Gaussian Distributions Used to Study the Diffusion in a Finite Region

open access: yesMathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this work, we explore both the ordinary q$$ q $$‐Gaussian distribution and a new one defined here, determining both their mean and variance, and we use them to construct solutions of the q$$ q $$‐deformed diffusion differential equation. This approach allows us to realize that the standard deviation of the distribution must be a function of

The futuristic manifolds of REM sleep

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, Volume 34, Issue 2, April 2025.
Summary Since one of its first descriptions 70 years ago, rapid eye movement sleep has continually inspired and excited new generations of sleep researchers. Despite significant advancements in understanding its neurocircuitry, underlying mechanisms and microstates, many questions regarding its function, especially beyond the early neurodevelopment ...

Metallicity Dependence of Molecular Cloud Hierarchical Structure at Early Evolutionary Stages

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The formation of molecular clouds out of H i gas is the first step toward star formation. Its metallicity dependence plays a key role in determining star formation throughout cosmic history.

The Interstellar Medium of Dwarf Galaxies

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

Selective sampling of asteroids, the Moon, and Mars: Factors affecting the numerical abundances of members of meteorite groups

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Meteorite collection inventories show that many related meteorite groups have very different numerical abundances (e.g., lunar versus Martian meteorites; Eagle Station pallasites versus main‐group pallasites; eucrites versus diogenites; ungrouped Antarctic irons versus ungrouped non‐Antarctic irons; carbonaceous chondrite‐related (CC) iron ...

Measurement of Interstellar Magnetization by Synchrotron Polarization Variance

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Since synchrotron polarization fluctuations are related to the fundamental properties of the magnetic field, we propose the polarization intensity variance to measure the Galactic interstellar medium (ISM) magnetization.

LAUNCHING COSMIC-RAY-DRIVEN OUTFLOWS FROM THE MAGNETIZED INTERSTELLAR MEDIUM [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We present a hydrodynamical simulation of the turbulent, magnetized, supernova (SN)-driven interstellar medium (ISM) in a stratified box that dynamically couples the injection and evolution of cosmic rays (CRs) and a self-consistent evolution of the ...

The effects of stellar winds of fast-rotating massive stars in the earliest phases of the chemical enrichment of the Galaxy

open access: yes, 2010
We use the growing data sets of very-metal-poor stars to study the impact of stellar winds of fast rotating massive stars on the chemical enrichment of the early Galaxy.
