Ionization front-driven turbulence in the clumpy interstellar ...

21 Aug 2008 at 8:25am

The radiation from the star heats up the gas and creates a shock front that expands into the interstellar medium. The shock compresses the clump material while the ionizing radiation heats it up. The outcome of this "cloud-crushing" ...

Ionization front-driven turbulence in the clumpy interstellar medium

21 Aug 2008 at 4:50am

Peters, Thomas arXiv:0808.2744.

AKARI/FIS Mapping of the ISM-Wind Bow Shock around Alpha Ori ...

21 Aug 2008 at 8:25am

... as well as follow-up observations with Herschel Space Telescope and Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy for this avenue of research in revealing the nature of interaction between the stellar wind and interstellar medium.

The early stages of molecular cloud evolution in the magnetised ...

8 Aug 2008 at 11:06am

We study the properties of clumps formed in three-dimensional simulations of converging flows in the magnetised, thermally bistable, warm neutral medium (WNM). Based on these simulations we find: (1) Pockets of cold, dense molecular ...

IBEX Awaiting Launch in October

9 Aug 2008 at 3:54pm

The Sun and entire solar system are moving through a region of space referred to as the local interstellar medium, which is composed of material ejected by stellar winds, novae and supernovae. The boundary between the local interstellar ...

Blazing trails: Microquasars as head-tail sources and the seeding ...

15 Aug 2008 at 10:40am

We discuss the dynamics of microquasar jets in the interstellar medium, with specific focus on the effects of the X-ray binaries' space velocity with respect to the local Galactic standard of rest. We argue that, during late stages in ...

Galaxy

13 Aug 2008 at 12:59pm

galaxy is a massive, gravitationally bound system consisting of stars, an interstellar medium of gas and dust, and dark matter. The name is from the Greek root galaxias , meaning ?milky,? a reference to the Milky Way galaxy. ...

IBEX, The Energetic Neutral Atom Hunter

28 Jul 2008 at 2:07am

At this point, the solar wind slows down as it interacts with the interstellar medium (the tenuous gas occupying the space between the stars). There are a mix of charged ions and neutral atoms. As the heliosphere is filled with the ...

A cool toy

18 Aug 2008 at 4:54pm

In the Olden Days, when space craft were going to keep improving as quickly as after WWII, the interstellar medium was not thought to be so thin near us and that annoying Mr. Heppenheimer had not yet pointed out that Bussard ramjets ...

8/4/08: Launch Pad, day 5

5 Aug 2008 at 2:19am

Spiral arms are, in fact, standing waves in the interstellar medium. At the leading edge of these waves (the inside edge of each sickle-shaped arm), new stars are born as the interstellar medium impacts the shockwave. ...

11 Aug 2008 at 12:28am

The heliosphere, which may be considered the tenuous outer atmosphere of the Sun, extends outward past the orbit of Pluto to the heliopause, where it forms a sharp shock front boundary with the interstellar medium. ...

Hydrogen Power

1 Aug 2008 at 4:08pm

Also, Hydrogen is a useful element. Space travel will give us access to Hydrogen in its pure form. Once access to the massive, universal supply of Hydrogen in the interstellar medium is established, we will be free of energy constraints.

BEX Mission Will View the Final Frontier of the Solar System

28 Jul 2008 at 5:19pm

The solar wind velocity is supersonic for most of this distance (exceeding a million miles per hour), but the point at which it begins to interact with the interstellar medium (ISM), the solar wind drops to subsonic velocities, ...

Questions about plasma physics and other stuff

28 Jul 2008 at 4:31pm

Could stellar and interstellar medium physics(and other astrophysical plasma fields) be considered to be plasma physics or does plasma physics differ to much from stellar physics? What I mean is, if someone have studied plasma physics, ...

What's New With the Sun?

13 Aug 2008 at 8:04am

These are great findings as they demonstrate how our Sun interacts with the surrounding interstellar medium through an elongated-spherical shape, but one that is pressed inward in the southern hemisphere. ...

16 Aug 2008 at 5:31pm

The web-like infrastructure of filamentary material glows from emission of the shocked ambient gases of the interstellar medium. The second optical component is the diffuse blue glow permeating the nebula. ...

10 Aug 2008 at 7:09pm

Space is filled with low-density gas and dust, and we call this the "interstellar medium." By mass, dust is only .5 - 1 percent of interstellar space. The dust particles in space are so tiny (!) ... about the size of the particles in ...

Diffuse interstellar bands in RAVE Survey spectra [arXiv:0808.1456]

12 Aug 2008 at 3:18am

It correlates so tightly with reddening that it turns out to be a reliable tool to measure it, following the relation E(BV) = 2.72 (+/- 0.03) x EW(Ang), valid throughout the general interstellar medium of our Galaxy. ... document.getElementById('Result_Span').innerHTML = " 1 - 20 of about 204 blogs about Interstellar Medium [definition] (0.592 seconds)";
