Radiative shock waves show a strong cooling instability at temperatures above approximately 2 times 10^5 K. We numerically investigate this instability by simulating different astronomical objects in which colliding flows play an…
This study provides the first comprehensive analysis of how ion mobility affects electron density and temperature in hypersonic flows. We compare two ion mobility models: one derived from Gupta-Yos cross-sections, and the other from swarm…
Images of electron flow through a two-dimensional electron gas from a quantum point contact (QPC) can be obtained at liquid He temperatures using scanning probe microscopy (SPM). A negatively charged SPM tip depletes the electron gas…
Spectral analysis of the translational superfluid flow of a Bose liquid is attempted. When cooling a dissipative flow of liquid helium 4 through a capillary at the lambda temperature,a superfluid flow abruptly appears at the lambda…
We consider structure and emission properties of a pair plasma fireball that cools due to radiation. At temperatures $T \geq 0.5 m_e c^2$ the cooling takes a form of clearly defined cooling wave, whereby the temperature and pair density…
Surges are cool and dense ejections typically observed in chromospheric lines and closely related to other solar phenomena like UV bursts or coronal jets. Our aim is to address the current lack of inverted models and diagnostics of surges…
A significant impediment to solving the coronal heating problem is that we currently only observe active region (AR) loops in their cooling phase. Previous studies showed that the evolution of cooling loop densities and apex temperatures…

Using particle-in-cell simulations that label ions and electrons according to their initial inflow region, we find that during 2D collisionless magnetic reconnection, the bulk flow of the plasma from each inflow side crosses paths with…
A large class of Laboratory, Space, and Astrophysical plasmas is nearly collisionless. When a localized energy or particle sink, for example, in the form of a radiative cooling spot or a black hole, is introduced into such a plasma, it can…
A novel formulation of the electron energy relaxation terms is presented here, which is applicable to plasma flows and discharges wherein the electron temperature could be higher or lower than the gas temperature. It is demonstrated that…
Small-scale transient phenomena in the quiet Sun are believed to play an important role in coronal heating and solar wind generation. One of them named as "X-ray jet" is the subject of our study. We indent to investigate the dynamics,…
We have mapped the proto-binary source IRAS 16293-2422 in CO 2-1, 13CO 2-1, and CO 3-2 with the Submillimeter Array (SMA). The maps with resolution of 1".5-5" reveal a single small scale (~3000 AU) bipolar molecular outflow along the…
Spectral observations of the solar transition region (TR) and corona show broadening of spectral lines beyond what is expected from thermal and instrumental broadening. The remaining non-thermal broadening is significant (5-30 km/s) and…
