Magnetohydrodynamics of Cloud Collisions in a Multi-phase Interstellar Medium
We extend previous studies of the physics of interstellar cloud collisions by beginning investigation of the role of magnetic fields through 2D magnetohydrodynamical (MHD) numerical simulations. In particular, we study head-on collisions between equal mass, mildly supersonic diffuse clouds similar to our previous study. Here we include a moderate magnetic field, corresponding to β = pg/pb = 4, ...
متن کاملMulti-wavelength observations of isolated neutron stars
Forty years elapsed since the optical identification of the first isolated neutron star (INS), the Crab pulsar. 25 INSs have been now identified in the optical (O), near-ultraviolet (nUV), or near-infrared (nIR), hereafter UVOIR, including rotation-powered pulsars (RPPs), magnetars, and X-ray-dim INSs (XDINSs), while deep investigations have been carried out for compact central objects (CCOs), ...
متن کاملMulti-wavelength Diameters of Nearby Miras and Semiregulars
We have used optical interferometry to obtain multi-wavelength visibility curves for eight red giants over the wavelength range 650–1000 nm. The observations consist of wavelengthdispersed fringes recorded with MAPPIT (Masked APerture-Plane Interference Telescope) at the 3.9-m Anglo-Australian Telescope. We present results for four Miras (R Car, o Cet, R Hya, R Leo) and four semi-regular variab...
متن کاملIs the Solar System Entering a Nearby Interstellar Cloud?
A model, based on different observations of the local interstellar medium, indicates the presence of a very close interstellar cloud in front of the Scorpius-Ophiuchus association (almost in the direction of the galactic center) approaching the solar system from a distance of about 0.03 pc at a velocity of about 15-20 km s. These observations are as follows: 1. The strong gradient of the hydrog...
متن کاملMulti-Wavelength Observations of 1ES1959+650 in a Flaring State
In May 2002, the BL Lacertae object (BL Lac), 1ES1959+650, was detected in the Very High Energy (VHE) regime by the VERITAS collaboration using the Whipple γ-ray observatory. During the following two months, the VERITAS collaboration observed episodes of flaring; at times, the nightly average VHE signal was three times as bright as the Crab Nebula, the standard candle in VHE astronomy. 1ES1959+...
