Evolution of supernova remnants in the interstellar medium with a large-scale density gradient
The results of the 2D modelling of Supernova remnant (SNR) RCW 86 are given. Models of this remnant, which for the first time interpret the anisotropy of surface brightness as a result of the evolution of adiabatic SNR in the interstellar medium with a large-scale gradient of density, are considered. Estimations on the basic characteristics of RCW 86 and the surrounding medium which follow from...
متن کاملDoes Tiny-scale Atomic Structure Exist in the Interstellar Medium ?
We report on preliminary results from the recent multi-epoch neutral hydrogen absorption measurements toward three pulsars, B0823+26, B1133+16 and B2016+28, using the Arecibo telescope. We do not find significant variations in optical depth profiles over periods of 0.3 and 9–10 yr, or on spatial scales of 10–20 and 70–85 AU. The large number of non detections of the tiny scale atomic structure ...
متن کاملSmall-scale structure in the interstellar medium: time-varying interstellar absorption towards κ Velorum
Ultra-high spectral resolution observations of time-varying interstellar absorption towards κ Vel are reported, using the Ultra-High Resolution Facility on the Anglo-Australian Telescope. Detections of interstellar Ca I, Ca II, K I, Na I and CH are obtained, whilst an upper limit on the column density is reported for C2. The results show continued increases in column densities of K I and Ca I s...
متن کاملThe 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...
