The interstellar medium (ISM) of galaxies is composed of a turbulent magnetized plasma. In order to quantitatively measure relevant turbulent parameters of the ISM, a wide variety of statistical techniques and metrics have been developed…
The microphysics of the intracluster medium (ICM) in galaxy clusters is still poorly understood. Observational evidence suggests that the effective viscosity is suppressed by plasma instabilities that reduce the mean free path of particles.…
