Extractions: Warm (5,000-10,000 K) gas in the interstellar medium is seen only in isolated clouds that can be identified by their kinematics, temperatures, and metal depletions on to grains. High resolution HST and FUSE spectra covering the 912-3000 A region contain many absorption lines formed in warm clouds. The Sun is located just inside one such cloud, the Local Interstellar Cloud (LIC) , and within 100 pc of the Sun there are other clouds with different kinematic and physical properties. We are building a three-dimensional model of the warm gas clouds within 100 pc of the Sun and developing models for the ionization balance of these clouds. See the Webpage of the Colorado Model of the Local Interstellar Cloud . A view of the LIC looking down from the North Galactic Pole showing that the Sun (located at 0,0) lies barely inside the LIC. Model the structure and kinematics of warm clouds in the interstellar medium out to about 100 pc. Determine the physical properties (temperature, density, and ionization state) of warm clouds in the local interstellar medium.

Extractions: The Stellar Radiation Field and the Interstellar Medium The interstellar medium (ISM) is the galactic atmosphere which fills the space between stars. The ISM plays a vital role in galactic evolution through a complex feedback process. When clouds within the ISM collapse, stars are born; when stars die, they return their matter to the surrounding gas. GAIA will have a key role to play in future studies of the ISM for gas components within 10 kpc of the Sun. Once a large fraction of the intrinsically luminous stars have been accurately pinpointed within the ISM, it will be possible to examine in detail how they interact with their environment. Future and current optical, radio and millimeter interferometers will produce detailed kinematic maps of the warm, neutral and molecular components of the ISM. With the aid of a self-consistent dynamical model for the Galaxy derived from the GAIA data, the spectral information can be inverted to produce accurate density distributions for the different phases in Galactic coordinates, The ISM is heated by both extended sources (e.g. coronal gas) and by compact sources (e.g. stars). The former have already been mapped by far-UV, x-ray and gamma-ray satellites. However, unlike stars, the extended sources cannot be inverted directly to provide a 3-d emissivity distribution.

Extractions: Credit: J. Dickey ( UMn ), F. Lockman ( NRAO SkyView Explanation : Interstellar space is filled with extremely tenuous clouds of gas which are mostly Hydrogen. The neutral hydrogen atom (HI in astronomer's shorthand) consists of 1 proton and 1 electron. The proton and electron spin like tops but can have only two orientations; spin axes parallel or anti-parallel. It is a rare event for Hydrogen atoms in the interstellar medium to switch from the parallel to the anti-parallel configuration, but when they do they emit radio waves with a wavelength of 21 centimeters (about 8 inches) and a corresponding frequency of exactly 1420 MHz. Tuned to this frequency radio telescopes have mapped the neutral Hydrogen in the sky. The above image represents such an all-sky HI survey with the plane of our Milky Way Galaxy running horizontally through the center. In this false color image no

Extractions: Next: 3.1.4 Formation and Evolution Up: 3.1.3 Galaxy Evolution and Previous: Radio Continuum Imaging The interstellar medium is the matrix within which the processes of galaxy evolution occur. It exists in many states: atomic and ionized hydrogen, relativistic plasma, molecular gas, and dust, each containing velocity and density structures over a vast range of scales. At the low spatial scales, a highly disturbed state is maintained by point-like energy input from stars at all phases of the stellar lifecycle. On the other end of the scale, energy input can take the form of global, large-scale phenomena, such as viscous dissipation or magnetic stress from Galactic rotation, and the motion of spiral arm density waves. Despite the apparent flux of energy on all scales, pockets of relative quiescence exist, where cold gas can self-gravitate and the process of star formation begins. The life cycle of stars, and the state and evolution of the ISM environment, are intimately intertwined. Previous sections have discussed the imaging power of SKA for atomic hydrogen, relativistic plasma, and ionized medium in galaxies. In the Milky Way the resolving power of the SKA will allow images of these components of the ISM on scales of AU anywhere in the Galaxy, and below an AU within 1 kpc from the Sun. We will be able to study processes in the ISM that require imaging on the scale of stellar dimensions, for example, the final stages of the formation of stars, energy injection from stars into the ISM, shock propagation, and the interface boundaries between ISM states and conditions.

Extractions: A group of astronomers has recently studied the chemical make-up of distant galaxies in the "redshift desert," which is a virtually unexplored region of space between eight billion and ten billion light years away. Because the light from these galaxies moves at a finite speed, the galaxies are being seen when the Universe was between 20% and 40% of its present age. Studying the properties of galaxies at this particular time is important because it corresponds to a special age in the history of the Universe - a time during which it is thought to have made most of its stars. These observations were undertaken using the Gemini North telescope and a uniquely capable instrument, the Gemini Multi-Object Spectrograph (GMOS), which is able to target extraordinarily faint galaxies using a newly developed technique known as "nod and shuffle." This work is reported in scheduled to appear in The Astrophysical Journal , vol. 602, no. 1, February 10, 2004, and authored by Sandra Savaglio (Johns Hopkins University) and her colleagues in the Gemini Deep Deep Survey (GDDS). The GDDS is an ambitious observing program executed on Gemini North during the last year. Data from this survey will soon be publicly available (see
