Feeding vs Falling. The growth and collapse of molecular clouds in a turbulent interstellar medium

, 2017
In order to understand the origin of observed molecular cloud properties, it is critical to understand how clouds interact with their environments during their formation, growth and collapse.

AI Based Velocity Calibration for Cassini's Cosmic Dust Analyzer (CDA)

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract This paper presents a novel AI‐based velocity calibration method for the Cosmic Dust Analyzer (CDA) onboard the Cassini spacecraft, in particular for impacts on the large Impact Ionization Detector (IID). The legacy polynomial calibration function, derived from laboratory measurements at a dust accelerator facility, assigns a velocity ...

Dynamical Effects of Stellar Winds and Associated HII Regions on the Interstellar Medium [PDF]

Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1987
A dynamical model has been developed, describing the joint evolution of a stellar wind and an associated HII region during the main sequence life time of an OB-star. It is proposed that in case of spherical symmetry all dynamical features are obtained by dividing the flow into spatially homogenous regions separated by discontinuities (shock fronts ...

Latitude Survey of Neutrons and Muons to Determine Cosmic Ray Neutron Sensing Yield Functions

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Cosmic Ray Neutron Sensing (CRNS) is a ground‐based technique that utilizes epithermal neutron measurements as a proxy for environmental hydrogen content. Similarly to other ground‐based cosmic ray detectors (e.g., neutron monitors), CRNS detectors are affected by the solar cycle and space weather events.

Near‐Earth Cosmic Ray Modulation Index ϕ and Neutron Monitor Cutoff Rigidities at Hourly Cadence: Toward an Improved Monitoring of Solar‐Terrestrial Radiation Environment, Space Weather, and Space Climate

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Cosmic rays (CRs) are energetic particles originating from galactic and extragalactic sources. When arriving into the solar system and the Sun's heliosphere, they are diverted and modulated by the magnetic activity of the Sun. This modulation can be quantified by the modulation parameter ϕ $\phi $ determined with the Force‐field approximation (

Additional acceleration of solar-wind particles in current sheets of the heliosphere [PDF]

, 2015
Particles of fast solar wind in the vicinity of the heliospheric current sheet (HCS) or in a front of interplanetary coronal mass ejections (ICMEs) often reveal very peculiar energy or velocity profiles, density distributions with double or triple peaks,

Classical, large-scale 3D magneto-hydrodynamic simulations of interacting pulsar wind nebulae

Astronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Magnetised rotating neutron stars, or pulsars, are a possible end product of massive star evolution. Their relativistic wind successively interacts with the supernova ejecta of their defunct progenitor, then with the circumstellar medium of the ...

Jovian Auroral Proton Precipitation

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The total power of the Jovian aurora is about 1013–1014 W with ultraviolet emission observed in the Lyman and Werner bands of molecular hydrogen. X‐ray, radio, and infrared emissions have also been observed. The Jovian Auroral Distributions Experiment and the Jovian Energetic Particle Detector Instrument onboard the Juno spacecraft, orbiting ...

Simulating supernova feedback in galaxy disks [PDF]

, 2012
In this thesis I examine supernova feedback in hydrodynamical simulations of galaxy disks. Understanding this process entails the numerical evaluation of cooling in radiative shocks, and we present a set of simulations using two widely used numerical ...

Interstellar Neutral Hydrogen in the Heliosphere: New Horizons Observations in the Context of Models

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
Interstellar neutral (ISN) hydrogen is the most abundant species in the outer heliosheath and the very local interstellar medium (VLISM). Charge-exchange collisions in the outer heliosheath result in filtration, reducing the ISN hydrogen density inside ...
