Supernovae (SN) generate hot gas in the interstellar medium (ISM), help setting the ISM structure and support the driving of outflows. It is important to resolve the hot gas generation for galaxy formation simulations at solar mass and…

It is shown that a number of key observations of the Galactic ISM can be understood, if it is treated as a highly compressible and turbulent medium energized predominantly by supernova explosions (and stellar winds). We have performed…

We present a hydrodynamical simulation of the turbulent, magnetized, supernova (SN)-driven interstellar medium (ISM) in a stratified box that dynamically couples the injection and evolution of cosmic rays (CRs) and a self-consistent…

We review recent 3D high resolution numerical HD and MHD studies of a multi-component and multi-phase ISM. The computational grid was chosen large enough in the disk to represent typical ISM gas patterns, and in the halo to include the full…

Supernovae (SN) explosions are thought to be an important source of dust in galaxies. At the same time strong shocks from SNe are known as an efficient mechanism of dust destruction via thermal and kinetic sputtering. A critically important…

Magnetic fields grow quickly, even at early cosmological times, suggesting the action of a small-scale dynamo (SSD) in the interstellar medium (ISM) of galaxies. Many studies have focused on idealized, isotropic, homogeneous, turbulent…

Young stars typically form in star clusters, so the supernovae (SNe) they produce are clustered in space and time. This clustering of SNe may alter the momentum per SN deposited in the interstellar medium (ISM) by affecting the local ISM…

We present three-dimensional magneto-hydrodynamical simulations of the self-gravitating interstellar medium (ISM) in a periodic (256 pc)$^3$ box with a mean number density of 0.5 cm$^{-3}$. At a fixed supernova rate we investigate the…

We study the evolution of multiple supernova (SN) explosions inside a pre-exiting cavity blown by winds from massive progenitor stars. Hydrodynamic simulations in one-dimensional spherical geometry, including radiative cooling and thermal…
