We carry out a multiwavelength study to characterize the HI supershell designated GS 118+01-44, and to analyse its possible origin. A multiwavlength study has been carried out to study the supershell and its environs. We performed an…

In the paper, the thermodynamic parameters of the high-pressure superconducting state in the SiH$_4$ compound have been determined ($p=250$ GPa). By using the Eliashberg equations in the mixed representation, the critical temperature, the…

The Galactic HII region G353.2+0.9 is excited by the massive open cluster Pismis-24. By analyzing (sub-)mm molecular-line and -continuum we study the detailed morphology of the gas and dust, as well as their physical parameters and their…

Atomic hydrogen (HI) plays a fundamental role in fueling star formation in galaxies. However, the behavior of HI gas in interacting systems, particularly galaxy pairs, remains elusive. In this work, we investigate the HI content of major…

Molecular hydrogen (H2) is the main constituent of the gas in the planet-forming disks that surround many PMS stars. H2 can be incorporated in the atmosphere of the giant planets. HD has been detected in a few disks and can be considered…

Strong light-matter interactions in silicon metasurfaces give rise to photothermal nonlinearities. While the effect of this strong coupling on light has been extensively studied, its impact on matter remains largely unexplored. Here, we…

Collisional excitation rate coefficients play an important role in the dynamics of energy transfer in the interstellar medium. In particular, accurate rotational excitation rates are needed to interpret microwave and infrared observations…
