Interstellar Absorption and Dust Scattering
The study of the interstellar medium (ISM) in the X-rays has entered a golden age with the advent of the X-ray observatories XMM-Newton and Chandra.... -
Ultraviolet spectropolarimetry with polstar: interstellar medium science
Continuum polarization over the UV-to-microwave range is due to dichroic extinction (or emission) by asymmetric, aligned dust grains. Scattering can...

Spectroscopic sizing of interstellar icy grains with JWST
Clouds of gas and dust in the Galaxy are nurseries in which stars and planetary systems are born. During their journey from the diffuse interstellar...

Radioactive isotopes in the interstellar medium
Radioactive components of the interstellar medium provide an entirely-different and new aspect to the studies of the interstellar medium. Injected...

Interstellar Absorption and Dust Scattering
The study of the interstellar medium (ISM) in the X-rays has entered a golden age with the advent of the X-ray observatories XMM-Newton and Chandra.... -
A possible direct exposure of the Earth to the cold dense interstellar medium 2–3 Myr ago
Cold, dense clouds in the interstellar medium of our Galaxy are 4–5 orders of magnitude denser than their diffuse counterparts. Our Solar System has...

Direct Exoplanet Investigation Using Interstellar Space Probes
Experience in exploring our own solar system has shown that direct investigation of planetary bodies using space probes invariably yields scientific... -
Observations of the Outer Heliosphere, Heliosheath, and Interstellar Medium
The Voyager spacecraft have left the heliosphere and entered the interstellar medium, making the first observations of the termination shock,...

The Heliosphere and Local Interstellar Medium from Neutral Atom Observations at Energies Below 10 keV
As the heliosphere moves through the surrounding interstellar medium, a fraction of the interstellar neutral helium, hydrogen, and heavier species...

In Situ Observations of Interstellar Pickup Ions from 1 au to the Outer Heliosphere
Interstellar pickup ions are an ubiquitous and thermodynamically important component of the solar wind plasma in the heliosphere. These PUIs are born...

Comparison of the Eulerian and Lagrangian Approaches to Studying the Peculiarities of the Interstellar Dust Distribution in the Heliosphere in the Framework of the Cold Gas Model
AbstractInterstellar dust grains penetrate into the heliosphere (region in which the solar wind propagates) due to the relative motion of the Sun and...
