Statistics of many particle energy levels of a finite two-dimensional system of interacting electrons is numerically studied. It is shown that the statistics of these levels undergoes a Poisson to Wigner crossover as the strength of the…

We establish that there are two velocity systems along lines-of-sight that contribute to the emission-line spectrum of the the brightest parts of the Orion Nebula. These overlie the Orion-S embedded molecular cloud southwest of the dominant…
