The Average Magnetic Field Strength in Molecular Clouds: New Evidence of Super-Alfvenic Turbulence
Paolo Padoan, Raul Jimenez, Mika Juvela +1
The magnetic field strength in molecular clouds is a fundamental quantity for theories of star formation. It is estimated by Zeeman splitting measurements in a few dense molecular…

Photoelectric heating and [CII] cooling in translucent clouds: results for cloud models based on simulations of compressible MHD turbulence
M. Juvela, P. Padoan, R. Jimenez
The photoelectric heating is believed to be the main heating mechanism in cool HI clouds. The heating rate can be estimated through observations of the [CII] line emission, since t…

Structure Function Scaling in Compressible Super-Alfvenic MHD Turbulence
Paolo Padoan, Raul Jimenez, Aake Nordlund +1
Supersonic turbulent flows of magnetized gas are believed to play an important role in the dynamics of star-forming clouds in galaxies. Understanding statistical properties of such…
