A Search for Gas-Rich Dwarf Galaxies in the Local Universe with ALFALFA and the WIYN One Degree Imager

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
We present results from an optical search for Local Group dwarf galaxy candidates associated with the Ultra-Compact High Velocity Clouds (UCHVCs) discovered by the ALFALFA neutral hydrogen survey.

The Hi Mass Function of Star-forming Galaxies at z ≈ 1

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
We present the first estimate, based on direct H i 21 cm observations, of the H i mass function (H i MF) of star-forming galaxies at z ≈ 1, obtained by combining our measurement of the scaling relation between H i mass ( M _H _i ) and B -band luminosity (

The influence of galactic cosmic rays on ion-neutral hydrocarbon chemistry in the upper atmospheres of free-floating exoplanets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The authors highlight financial support of the European Community under the FP7 by an ERC starting grant.Cosmic rays may be linked to the formation of volatiles necessary for prebiotic chemistry.

Star Formation Drives Production of Low-energy Cosmic Rays

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
For over a century, the origin of low-energy cosmic rays (LECRs), the dominant heaters and ionizers of dense interstellar gas, has remained elusive owing to solar modulation and uncertain transport processes.

A comprehensive investigation on the formation of organo-sulfur molecules in dark clouds via neutral-neutral reactions

open access: yes, 2002
Fifteen reactions on the doublet HCnS and singlet/triplet ${\rm H_2C}_n{\rm S} (n=1,2)$ potential energy surfaces have been investigated theoretically via electronic structure calculations to unravel the formation of hydrogen deficient, sulfur bearing ...

Neutral hydrogen absorption towards Fast Radio Bursts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
If Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) are truly at astronomical, in particular cosmological, distances, they represent one of the most exciting discoveries in astrophysics of the past decade.

Mapping Galactic Dust Emission and Extinction with H I, H II, and H2

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Neutral hydrogen (H i ) emission closely traces the dust column density at high Galactic latitudes and is thus a powerful tool for predicting dust extinction. However, the relation between H i column density N _HI and high-latitude dust emission observed

Magnetic Misalignment of Interstellar Dust Filaments

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present evidence for scale-independent misalignment of interstellar dust filaments and magnetic fields. We estimate the misalignment by comparing millimeter-wave dust-polarization measurements from Planck with filamentary structures identified in ...

Upper Limits on the Space Density of Intergalactic Neutral Hydrogen Clouds

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1981
A survey in the 21 cm line of H I of 153 square degrees of sky out in a distance corresponding to 3000 km s/sup -1/ and with a limiting sensitivity of 3 x 10/sup 6/D/sup 2/ M/sub sun/ has failed to turn up any convincing detections that are unassociated with a visible counterpart.

High velocity clouds in nearby disk galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
Clouds of neutral hydrogen in our galaxy with the absolute value of v greater than 100 km/s cover approximately 10 percent of the sky to a limiting column density of 1 x 10(exp 18) cm(exp -2).
