Reliable nebular emission line diagnostics are essential for accurately inferring the physical properties (e.g. electron temperature, density, pressure, and metallicity) of H II regions from spectra. When interpreting spectra, it is typical…
We carry out direct numerical simulations of turbulent astrophysical media exposed to the redshift zero metagalactic background. The simulations assume solar composition and explicitly track ionizations, recombinations, and ion-by-ion…
We carry out direct numerical simulations of turbulent astrophysical media that explicitly track ionizations, recombinations, and species-by-species radiative cooling. The simulations assume solar composition and follows the evolution of…
We present results from two-dimensional numerical simulations of a supersonic turbulent flow in the plane of the galactic disk, incorporating shear, thresholded and discrete star formation (SF), self-gravity, rotation and magnetic fields. A…
We study, by means of adaptive mesh refinement hydro- and magnetohydrodynamical simulations that cover a wide range of scales (from kpc to sub-parsec), the dimension of the most dissipative structures and the injection scale of the…
Our knowledge of the circumgalactic medium (CGM) is mostly based on quasar absorption-line measurements. These have uncovered a multiphase medium that is likely highly turbulent, but constraints of this turbulence are limited to…
Radiation transport plays important roles in stellar atmospheres, but the effects of turbulence are being obscured by other effects such as stratification. Using radiative hydrodynamic simulations of forced turbulence, we determine the…
The statistical properties of interstellar turbulence are studied by means of three-dimensional high-resolution HD and MHD simulations of a SN-driven ISM. It is found that the longitudinal and transverse turbulent length scales have time…
A substantial fraction of the light emitted from young or star-forming galaxies at ultraviolet to near-infrared wavelengths comes from the ionized interstellar medium in the form of emission lines and a nebular continuum. At high redshifts,…
By combining optical and near-IR observations from the Hubble Space Telescope with NIR photometry from the Spitzer Space Telescope it is possible to measure the rest-frame UV-optical colours of galaxies at z=4-8. The UV-optical spectral…
The circumgalactic medium (CGM) of nearby star-forming galaxies shows clear indications of OVI absorption accompanied by little to no detectable NV absorption. This unusual spectral signature, accompanied by highly non-uniform absorption…
Infrared and nebular lines provide some of our best probes of the physics regulating the properties of the interstellar medium (ISM) at high-redshift. However, interpreting the physical conditions of high-redshift galaxies directly from…
Momentum deposition by radiation pressure from young, massive stars may help to destroy molecular clouds and unbind stellar clusters by driving large-scale outflows. We extend our previous numerical radiation hydrodynamic study of…
Turbulence plays a critical role in regulating star formation in molecular clouds and is also observed in simulations of primordial halos that host Population III (Pop III) stars. The relative velocity between baryons and dark matter at the…
We study the physical origin and spectroscopic impact of extreme nebular emission in high-redshift galaxies. The nebular continuum, which can appear during an extreme starburst, is of particular importance as it tends to redden UV slopes…
We present an analysis of the residual velocities from a sample of 105 Galactic planetary nebulae (PNe), the largest done to date on this subject. The analysis has been carried out with long-slit, high dispersion echelle spectra. The data…
We present a photoionization model study of the effects of micro-turbulence and dissipative heating on emission lines for number and column densities, elemental abundances, and ionizations typical for the narrow emission line regions (NLRs)…
We present the results of three-dimensional simulations of supersonic Euler turbulence with grid resolutions up to 1024^3 points. Our numerical experiments describe nonmagnetized driven turbulent flows with an isothermal equation of state…
Direct Numerical Simulations (DNS) of turbulent channel flow at a shear Reynolds number of $Re_{*}=360$ for Newtonian and Herschel-Bulkley fluids in smooth and rough channels has been performed. The rough surface was made of irregular…
Turbulence influences the structure and dynamics of molecular clouds, and plays a key role in regulating star formation. We therefore need methods to accurately infer turbulence properties of molecular clouds from position-position-velocity…
