Mixing Time Scales in a Supernova-Driven Interstellar Medium
We study the mixing of chemical species in the interstellar medium (ISM). Recent observations suggest that the distribution of species such as deuterium in the ISM may be far from homogeneous. This raises the question of how long it takes for inhomogeneities to be erased in the ISM, and how this depends on the length scale of the inhomogeneities. We added a tracer field to the three-dimensional...
متن کاملThe Distribution of Pressures in a Supernova-Driven Interstellar Medium
Observations have suggested substantial departures from pressure equilibrium in the interstellar medium (ISM) in the plane of the Galaxy, even on scales under 50 pc. Nevertheless, multi-phase models of the ISM assume at least locally isobaric gas. The pressure then determines the density reached by gas cooling to stable thermal equilibrium. We use two different sets of numerical models of the I...
متن کاملSelf-regulating supernova heating in interstellar medium simulations
Numerical simulations of the multi-phase interstellar medium have been carried out, using a 3D, nonlinear, magnetohydrodynamic, shearing-box model, with random motions driven by supernova explosions. These calculations incorporate the effects of magnetic fields and rotation in 3D; these play important dynamical roles in the galaxy, but are neglected in many other simulations. The supernovae dri...
متن کاملLong-Term Evolution of Supernova Remnants in Magnetized Interstellar Medium
The evolution of supernova remnants (SNRs) is studied, with particular attention to the effect of magnetic fields with axisymmetric two-dimensional magnetohydrodynamical simulations. The evolution of magnetic SNRs is the same as non-magnetic ones in the adiabatic Sedov stage. After a thin shell is formed, the shell is driven by the pressure of the hot interior gas (bubble). Evolution in the pre...
متن کاملThe Supernova Rate - Velocity dispersion Relation in the Interstellar Medium
We investigate with three-dimensional numerical simulations of supernova driven turbulence in the interstellar medium (ISM) the relationship between the velocity dispersion of the gas and the supernova rate and feedback efficiency. Our simulations aim to explore the constancy of the velocity dispersion profiles in the outer parts of galactic disk at ∼ 6 − 8 km s, and the transition to the starb...
