Journal ArticleDOI
Interstellar bubbles. II - Structure and evolution
TL;DR: In this article, the detailed structure of the interaction of a strong stellar wind with the interstellar medium is presented, including the effects of thermal conduction between the hot interior and the cold shell of swept-up interstellar matter.
Journal ArticleDOI
Consequences of a New Hot Component of the Interstellar Medium
Paul R. Shapiro,George B. Field +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined a new, hot (Tapprox.10/sup 6/ K), diffuse component of the interstellar medium in the context of both a steady-state and a time-dependent model and concluded that such a component can explain the two observations only if the pressure of the cooler interstellar medium is approx.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hydrogen molecules and the radiative cooling of pregalactic shocks
Paul R. Shapiro,Hyesung Kang +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, detailed results for the hydrodynamical, thermal, ionization, and molecular formation history of post-shock cooling flows behind steady state shocks in a primordial gas at redshifts z = 5, 10, and 20 are presented and analyzed for a wide range of shock velocities from 50 to 400 km/s.
Journal ArticleDOI
Simulating Cosmic Reionization at Large Scales I: the Geometry of Reionization
TL;DR: The first large-scale radiative transfer simulation of cosmic reionization was presented in this paper, in a simulation volume of (100 h 1 Mpc) 3, which is more than a 2 orders of magnitude improvement over previous simulations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Photoevaporation of cosmological minihaloes during reionization
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a gas dynamical simulation of the photoevaporation of cosmological minihaloes overtaken by the ionization fronts which swept through the IGM during the reionization epoch in the currently favored A cold dark matter (ACDM) universe, including the effects of radiative transfer.
