Loose threads: parsec-scale filamentation in the high Galactic latitude molecular clouds MBM 3 and MBM 16

Marco Monaci, Loris Magnani, Steven N. Shore

The existence of high galactic latitude molecular clouds has been known for several decades, and studies of their dust and gas distributions reveal complicated morphological struct…

Hydrodynamical shear mixing in subsonic boundary layers and its role in the thermonuclear explosion of classical novae

Marco Bellomo, Steven N. Shore, Jordi José

The transition zone between the white dwarf (WD) envelope and a circumstellar accretion disk in classical novae, the boundary layer, is a region of strong dissipation and intense v…

The mixing of dust and gas in the high latitude translucent cloud MBM 40

Marco Monaci, Loris Magnani, Steven N. Shore

Context. High latitude molecular clouds (hereafter HLMCs) permit the study of interstellar gas dynamics and astrochemistry with good accuracy due to their proximity, generally clea…

Fermi Reveals New Light on Novae in Gamma rays

C. C. Cheung, P. Jean, S. N. Shore +2

Novae are now firmly established as a high-energy (>100 MeV) gamma-ray source class by the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT). In symbiotic binary systems such as V407 Cyg 2010, ther…

Simulations of micrometeoroid interactions with the Earth atmosphere

G. Briani, E. Pace, S. N. Shore +3

Micrometeoroids (cosmic dust with size between a few m and 1 mm) dominate the annual extraterrestrial mass flux to the Earth. We investigate the range of physical processe…

Sub-surface convection zones in hot massive stars and their observable consequences

M. Cantiello, N. Langer, I. Brott +6

We study the convection zones in the outer envelope of hot massive stars which are caused by opacity peaks associated with iron and helium ionization. We determine the occurrence a…
