Journal ArticleDOI
The Neutral Atomic Phases of the ISM in the Galaxy
TL;DR: In this article, the authors provided an analytic approximation for P_min as a function of metallicity, far-ultraviolet radiation field, and the ionization rate of atomic hydrogen.

TL;DR: In this paper, a photoelectric heating rate from small grains and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) was proposed to account for the size distribution of particles extending from 100 to 3 A radius.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article, the extinction ratio between two filters, e.g. A(J)/A(K), is calculated from the color distributions of observed stars, and the mean values of the color excess ratios (A(λ)-A(k))/(A(J)-A (K)) are calculated from those measured ratios.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article, far-infrared and sub-millimeter photometry from the Herschel Space Observatory is presented for 61 nearby galaxies from the Key Insights on Nearby Galaxies: A Far-Infrared Survey with Herschel (KINGFISH) sample.
