Shocks and Molecules in Diffuse Interstellar Cloud Pairs

William T. Reach, Carl Heiles

The diffuse interstellar medium is dynamic, and its chemistry and evolution is determined by shock fronts as well as photodissociation. Shocks are implied by the supersonic motions…

The Measurement of Polarization in Radio Astronomy

Timothy Robishaw, Carl Heiles

Modern dual-polarization receivers allow a radio telescope to characterize the full polarization state of incoming insterstellar radio waves. Many astronomers incorrectly consider…

Spectral Polarization of the Redshifted 21 cm Absorption Line Toward 3C 286

Arthur M. Wolfe, Regina A. Jorgenson, Timothy Robishaw +2

A re-analysis of the Stokes-parameter spectra obtained of the z=0.692 21 cm absorption line toward 3C 286 shows that our original claimed detection of Zeeman splitting by a line-of…

On Measuring Accurate 21-cm Line Profiles with the Robert C. Byrd Green Bank Telescope

Timothy Robishaw, Carl Heiles

We use observational data to show that 21 cm line profiles measured with the Green Bank Telescope (GBT) are subject to significant inaccuracy. These include ~10% errors in the cali…

An 84 microGauss Magnetic Field in a Galaxy at Redshift z=0.692

Arthur M. Wolfe, Regina A. Jorgenson, Timothy Robishaw +2

The magnetic field pervading our Galaxy is a crucial constituent of the interstellar medium: it mediates the dynamics of interstellar clouds, the energy density of cosmic rays, and…

Magnetic Fields in Irregular Galaxies

Amanda A. Kepley, Stefanie Muehle, Eric M. Wilcots +4

Magnetic fields are an important component of the interstellar medium, especially in low-mass galaxies like irregulars where the magnetic pressure may be significant. However, few…
