Effects of Forcing on Shocks and Energy Dissipation in Interstellar and Intracluster Turbulences

Hyunjin Cho, Dongsu Ryu, Hyesung Kang

Observations indicate that turbulence in the interstellar medium (ISM) is supersonic ($M_{\mathrm{turb}}\gg 1$) and strongly magnetized ($\beta \sim 0.01-1$), while in the intracluster medium…
