The interstellar medium (ISM) is a key ingredient in galaxy formation and evolution as it provides the molecular gas reservoir which fuels star formation and supermassive black hole accretion. Yet the ISM is one of the least studied aspects of distant galaxies. Molecular and atomic transitions at (sub)millimetre wavelengths hold great promise in measuring macroscopic properties (e.g. masses, mo...

Context. The dust component of the interstellar medium (ISM) has been extensively studied in the past decades. Late-type stars have been assumed as the main source of dust to the ISM, but recent observations show that supernova remnants may play a role on the ISM dust feedback. Aims. In this work, we study the importance of low and high mass stars, as well as their evolutionary phase, on the IS...

2 Abstract We report the results of the Chandra ACIS sub-arcsecond resolution X-ray observation of the archetypal merger radio galaxy NGC 1316 (Fornax A). We confirm the presence of fine sub-structures in the hot Interstellar Medium (ISM). Some of these are likely to result from interaction with the radio jets, while others may be related to a complex intermingling of different phases of the IS...

We study the OVI distribution in space and time in a representative section of the Galactic disk by 3D adaptive mesh refinement HD and MHD simulations of the ISM, including the disk-halo-disk circulation. The simulations describe a supernova driven ISM on large (∼ 10 kpc) and small (∼ 1.25 pc) scales over a sufficiently large timescale (∼ 400 Myrs) in order to establish a global dynamical equil...

Ion selective membrane (ISM) is widely used in electrochemical engineering and micro-fluidic processes, yet accurate modeling of the ISM still challenging due to many scientific issues. So far, assumptions on “ideal ISM” have been most simulation studies involving ion transport electrokinetic flow concentration polarization systems, but validity or accuracy those has never investigated. In this...
