LightCube: A Parsec-Resolution 3D Model of the Local Far-Ultraviolet Interstellar Radiation Field

Hannah V. Bish, J. E. G. Peek, Catherine Zucker +5

We present a three-dimensional model of the local interstellar radiation field (ISRF) in the ultraviolet (UV). Using UV flux measurements from the TD1 catalog and stellar distances…

Scylla: Observational Evidence for an Order of Magnitude in Dust Mass Opacity Evolution with ISM Density in the Large Magellanic Cloud

Christina W. Lindberg, Christopher J. R. Clark, Claire E. Murray +11

The emissivity of dust is known to vary greatly with radiative environment, density, grain chemistry, and geometry. Discrepancies between dust mass surface densities derived from f…

A Nearby Dark Molecular Cloud in the Local Bubble Revealed via H Fluorescence

Blakesley Burkhart, Thavisha E. Dharmawardena, Shmuel Bialy +20

A longstanding prediction in interstellar theory posits that significant quantities of molecular gas, crucial for star formation, may be undetected due to being ``dark" in commonly…

The Origin of the Cluster of Local Interstellar Clouds

Catherine Zucker, Seth Redfield, Sara Starecheski +2

The interstellar medium within of the Sun consists of a complex of fifteen diffuse, partially ionized clouds. Located within the Local Bubble, these clouds, k…

Characterizing the 3D Structure of Molecular Cloud Envelopes in the "Cloud Factory" Simulations

Elijah Mullens, Catherine Zucker, Claire E. Murray +1

We leverage recent numerical simulations of highly resolved star-forming regions in a Milky Way-like Galaxy to explore the nature of extended gaseous envelopes around molecular clo…

Dense Gas in a Giant Molecular Filament

Y. Wang, H. Beuther, N. Schneider +10

Recent surveys of the Galactic plane in the dust continuum and CO emission lines reveal that large (~pc) and massive (~) filaments, know as giant…
