Evaporation and Thermal Balance of Tiny HI Clouds
Jonathan D. Slavin
We discuss the thermal evaporation of tiny HI clouds in the interstellar medium. Cold neutral clouds will take ~10^6 - 10^7 yr to evaporate if they are embedded in warm neutral gas…
Evidence for a High Carbon Abundance in the Local Interstellar Cloud
Jonathan D. Slavin, Priscilla C. Frisch
The nature of the Local Interstellar Cloud (LIC) is highly constrained by the combination of in situ heliospheric and line-of-sight data towards nearby stars. We present a new inte…
The Sun's Journey Through the Local Interstellar Medium: The PaleoLISM and Paleoheliosphere
P. C. Frisch, J. D. Slavin
Over the recent past, the galactic environment of the Sun has differed substantially from today. Sometime within the past ~130,000 years, and possibly as recent as ~56,000 years ag…
Short-term Variations in the Galactic Environment of the Sun
Priscilla C. Frisch, Jonathan D. Slavin
The galactic environment of the Sun varies over short timescales as the Sun and interstellar clouds travel through space. Small variations in the dynamics, ionization, density, and…
