Observations of Interstellar Carbon Compounds

Infrared absorption and emission features observed spectroscopically in our Galaxy allow to probe the composition of solid dust grains, their evolution and thus follow the cycling of matter in the Galaxy. Many observables do reveal the presence of large amounts of carbonaceous particles in space, other than the PAH-like emission lines. The carbonaceous materials observed include amorphous carbo...

Plasma near the Heliosheath: Observations and Interpretations

Voyager 2 (V2) has observed heliosheath plasma since 2007 August. The plasma flux decreases by 25% before the termination shock (TS), then, as V2 moved into the heliosheath, the plasma density, temperature, and flux all decreased by an additional factor of 2. We suggest three effects combine to cause these decreases. (1) V2 moved into the lower-flux transition region between the lowand high-spe...

INTERSTELLAR TURBULENCE I: Observations and Processes

■ Abstract Turbulence affects the structure and motions of nearly all temperature and density regimes in the interstellar gas. This two-part review summarizes the observations, theory, and simulations of interstellar turbulence and their implications for many fields of astrophysics. The first part begins with diagnostics for turbulence that have been applied to the cool interstellar medium and ...

Observations of the Compact Double B 2 2050 + 36 : Constraints on Interstellar Scattering Revisited

We present multi-frequency observations with the Very Long Baseline Array of the compact double radio source B2 2050+36. Our observations are at 0.33, 0.61, 1.67, 2.3, and 8.4 GHz, with the 0.61 GHz observations forming the third epoch of observation of this source at that frequency. At 0.61 GHz, the structure of B2 2050+36 is dominated by two components 56 mas apart. Within the uncertainties o...

Space - VLBI observations of OH maser OH 34 . 26 + 0 . 15 : low interstellar scattering

We report on the first space-VLBI observations of the OH34.26+0.15 maser in two main line OH transitions at 1665 and 1667 MHz. The observations involved the space radiotelescope on board the Japanese satellite HALCA and an array of ground radio telescopes. The map of the maser region and images of individual maser spots were produced with an angular resolution of 1 milliarcsec which is several ...
