We present simulations of the multi-phase interstellar medium (ISM) at solar neighbourhood conditions including thermal and non-thermal ISM processes, star cluster formation, and feedback from massive stars: stellar winds, hydrogen ionising…

We systematically perform hydrodynamics simulations of 20 km s^-1 converging flows of the warm neutral medium (WNM) to calculate the formation of the cold neutral medium (CNM), especially focusing on the mean properties of the multiphase…

We present a new particle based code with a multi-phase description of the ISM implemented in order to follow the chemo-dynamical evolution of galaxies. The multi-phase ISM consists of clouds (sticky particles) and diffuse gas (SPH):…
