Exchange Processes in a Multi-Phase ISM

چکیده
Abstract. We present a new particle based code with a multi-phase description of the ISM implemented in order to follow the chemo-dynamical evolution of galaxies. The multi-phase ISM consists of clouds (sticky particles) and diffuse gas (SPH): Exchange of matter, energy and momentum is achieved by drag (due to ram pressure) and condensation or evaporation. Based on time scales we show that in Milky-Waylike galaxies the drag force is for molecular clouds only important, if their relative velocities exceed 100 km/s. For the mass exchange we find that clouds evaporate only if the temperature of the ambient gas is higher than one million Kelvin. At lower temperatures condensation takes place at time scales of the order of 1–10 Gyr.

Star Formation in a Multi-Phase ISM
We present a 3d code for the dynamical evolution of a multi-phase interstellar medium (ISM) coupled to stars via star formation (SF) and feedback processes. The multi-phase ISM consists of clouds (sticky particles) and diffuse gas (SPH): exchange of matter, energy and momentum is achieved by drag (due to ram pressure) and condensation or evaporation processes. The cycle of matter is completed b...
متن کاملFuzzy Multi-Objective Two-Stage DEA Model for Evaluating the Performance of Companies Listed on Tehran Stock Exchange
The aim of this study is to provide a new two-stage DEA model with fuzzy multi-objective programming approach for evaluating the performance of companies listed in the Tehran Stock Exchange. In this study, a two-stage DEA model, different from the traditional model, we introduce for performance analysis. In this regard, the stable operation of companies, into two sub-process, have divided, whic...
متن کاملEffective Star Formation Rates for Cosmological Applications
Effective star formation rates in tabular form are computed which yield a prescription for the star formation activity in model galaxies as a function of ambient density, metallicity, and stellar feedback. The effects of supernova explosions on the thermal balance of the Interstellar Medium (ISM) and the presence of a multi-phase ISM are explicitly included. The resulting grid of models can be ...
متن کاملChemo-dynamical Evolution of the ISM in Galaxies
Chemo-dynamical models have been introduced in the late eighties and are a generally accepted tool for understanding galaxy evolution. They have been successfully applied to one-dimensional problems, e.g. the evolution of nonrotating galaxies, and two-dimensional problems, e.g. the evolution of disk galaxies. Recently, also three-dimensional chemo-dynamical models have become available. In thes...
متن کاملThe effect of parameter estimation on Phase II control chart performance in monitoring financial GARCH processes with contaminated data
The application of control charts for monitoring financial processes has received a greater focus after recent global crisis. The Generelized AutoRegressive Conditional Heteroskedasticity (GARCH) time series model is widely applied for modelling financial processes. Therefore, traditional Shewhart control chart is developed to monitor GARCH processes. There are some difficulties in financial su...
