We examine observational characteristics of multi-phase turbulent flows in the diffuse interstellar medium (ISM) using a synthetic radiation field of atomic and molecular lines. We consider the multi-phase ISM which is formed by thermal instability under the irradiation of UV photons with moderate visual extinction AV ∼ 1. Radiation field maps of C, C, and CO line emissions were generated by ca...

The long-term evolution of supernova remnants (SNRs) in the primordial interstellar medium (ISM) with an inhomogeneous structure is calculated to investigate metal enrichment of the primordial gas. For this purpose, we have constructed a parallel 3-D hydrodynamics code incorporating the radiative cooling and self-gravity. The self-gravity and radiative cooling develop the inhomogeneous structur...

OBJECTIVE To describe the clinical features of invagination of the sphenoid sinus mucosa (ISM) and compare them with other similar cases using a visual analog scale (VAS) to assess the various nasal symptoms and to discuss its clinical significance and means of prevention. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective chart review at a tertiary referral center. METHODS Between 2010 and 2015, 8 patients who ha...

We present measurements of the oxygen abundance of the Milky Way’s ISM by observing the K-shell X-ray photoionization edge towards galaxy clusters. This effect is most easily observed towards objects with galactic columns (nH) of a few times 1021 cm−2. We measure X-ray column densities towards 11 clusters and find that at high galactic columns above approximately 1021 cm−2 the X-ray columns are...

By now many Canadians know that February is heart month, thanks to annual canvassing of the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada. February, it turns out, is the peak month for heart attacks, but did you ever wonder why? If you subscribe to the notion that high cholesterol is the main or major risk factor for heart attacks, then you would be surprised to know that seasonal differences in choles...

We study the hydrodynamical evolution of galactic winds in disky dwarf galaxies moving through an intergalactic medium. In agreement with previous investigations, we find that when the ram pressure stripping does not disrupt the ISM, it usually has a negligible effect on the galactic wind dynamics. Only when the IGM ram pressure is comparable to the central ISM thermal pressure the stripping an...

We present results from two Chandra/ACIS-I observations and one XMM-Newton observation of X-ray emission from the interstellar medium (ISM) and the inner radio lobes of the nearby radio galaxy Centaurus A. The ISM has an average radial surface brightness profile that is well described by a -model profile with index 1⁄4 0:40 0:04 and a temperature of kBTISM 0:29 keV beyond 2 kpc from the nucleus...

The response of the Indian summer monsoon (ISM) circulation and precipitation to Middle East dust aerosols on sub-seasonal timescales is studied using observations and the Weather Research and Forecasting model coupled with online chemistry (WRF-Chem). Satellite data show that the ISM rainfall in coastal southwest India, central and northern India, and Pakistan is closely associated with the Mi...
