Densities of clouds detected in molecular absorption

The volume densities of giant molecular clouds in M 83

Using observed GALEX far-ultraviolet (FUV) fluxes and VLA images of the 21-cm HI column densities, along with estimates of the local dust abundances, we measure the volume densities of a sample of actively star-forming giant molecular clouds (GMCs) in the nearby spiral galaxy M83 on a typical resolution scale of 170 pc. Our approach is based on an equilibrium model for the cycle of molecular hy...

CN excitation and electron densities in diffuse molecular clouds

Utilizing previous work by the authors on the spin-coupled rotational cross-sections for electron–CN collisions, data for the associated rate coefficients are presented. Data on rotational, fine-structure and hyperfine-structure transition involving rotational levels up to N = 20 are computed for temperatures in the range 10–1000 K. Rates are calculated by combining Born-corrected R-matrix calc...

Diffuse Molecular Cloud Densities from UV Measurements of CO Absorption

Absorption of Solar Radiation in Broken Clouds

It is recognized now that the plane-parallel model unsatisfactorily describes the transfer of radiation through broken clouds and that, consequently, the radiation codes of general circulation models (GCMs) must be refined. However, before any refinement in a GCM code is made, it is necessary to investigate the dependence of radiative characteristics on the effects caused by the random geometry...

molecular and physiological characterizations of floral scent production in rosa damascena mill.

گل محمدی (r. damascena mill.)مهمترین گونه ای است که در تولید گلاب، عطر و اسانس، در صنعت عطرسازی و دارویی کاربرد دارد. با وجود اهمیت عطر گل محمدی، پژوهش های مولکولی و بیوشیمیایی عطر گل این گونه هنوز در مراحل ابتدایی است. در این پژوهش، ویژگی های مولکولی و فیزیولوژیکی تولید عطر در گل محمدی در آزمایش های مختلف مورد بررسی قرار گرفتند. در آزمایش اول، پژوهشی به منظور بررسی تنوع شیمیایی اسانس میان 44 ت...
