The Molecular Hydrogen Explorer H2EX

F. Boulanger, J. P. Maillard, P. Appleton +12

The Molecular Hydrogen Explorer, H2EX, was proposed in response to the ESA 2015 - 2025 Cosmic Vision Call as a medium class space mission with NASA and CSA participations. The miss…

Multi-wavelength observations of a nearby multi-phase interstellar cloud

C. Nehme, C. Gry, F. Boulanger +3

High-resolution spectroscopic observations (UV HST/STIS and optical) are used to characterize the physical state and velocity structure of the multiphase interstellar medium seen t…

Dissipative structures of diffuse molecular gas: I - Broad HCO(1-0) emission

E. Falgarone, G. Pineau Des Forêts, P. Hily-Blant +1

Results: We report the detection of broad HCO+(1-0) lines (10 mK < T < 0.5 K). The interpretation of 10 of the HCO+ velocity components is conducted in conjunction with that of the…

A far UV study of interstellar gas towards HD34078: high excitation H2 and small scale structure - Based on observations performed by the FUSE mission and at the CFHT telescope

P. Boisse, F. Le Petit, E. Rollinde +5

To investigate the presence of small scale structure in the spatial distribution of H2 molecules we have undertaken repeated FUSE UV observations of the runaway O9.5V star, HD34078…

Temporal evolution of magnetic molecular shocks II. Analytics of the steady state and semi-analytical construction of intermediate ages

P. Lesaffre, J. -P. Chièze, S. Cabrit +1

In the first paper of this series (Paper I) we computed time dependent simulations of multifluid shocks with chemistry and a transverse magnetic field frozen in the ions, using an…
