The Local Interstellar Medium
Substantial progress in the field of the Local Interstellar Medium has been largely due to recent launches of space missions, mostly in the UV and X–ray domains, but also to ground-based observations, mainly in high resolution spectroscopy. However, a clear gap seems to remain between the wealth of new data and the theoretical understanding. This paper gives an overview of some observational as...
متن کاملThe Local Interstellar Medium
The Local Interstellar Medium (LISM) is a unique environment that presents an opportunity to study general interstellar phenomena in great detail and in three dimensions. In particular, high resolution optical and ultraviolet spectroscopy have proven to be powerful tools for addressing fundamental questions concerning the physical conditions and three-dimensional (3D) morphology of this local m...
متن کاملOn the Relativistic Transformation of Electromagnetic Fields
a By investigating the motion of a point charge in an electro-static and in a magnetostatic field, it is shown that the rel-ativistic transformation of electromagnetic fields leads to ambiguous results. The necessity for developing an 'elec-trodynamics for moving matter' is emphasized. Classical electrodynamics, as it is taught today [1], is based on Hertz's formulation [2] of Maxwell's field e...
متن کاملOn the Absorption of X-rays in the Interstellar Medium
We present an improved model for the absorption of X-rays in the interstellar medium (ISM) intended for use with data from future X-ray missions with larger effective areas and increased energy resolution such as Chandra and the X-ray Multiple Mirror mission, in the energy range & 100 eV. Compared to previous work, our formalism includes recent updates to the photoionization cross section and r...
متن کاملOn the Crystallinity of Silicate Dust in the Interstellar Medium
An accurate knowledge of the mineralogy (chemical composition and crystal structure) of the silicate dust in the interstellar medium (ISM) is crucial for understanding its origin in evolved stars, the physical and chemical processing in the ISM, and its subsequent incorporation into protostellar nebulae, protoplanetary disks and cometary nuclei where it is subjected to further processing. While...
