This project investigates the thermal balance of the interstellar medium by examining the photoelectric effect's role in heating, using data from the Herschel and Spitzer space observatories. It aims to understand how dust grain properties influence heating efficiency in nearby galaxies, contributing to our knowledge o…
Understanding the thermal balance of the interstellar medium (ISM) is of fundamental importance for studying star-formation and the evolution of galaxies over the history of the Universe.
The photoelectric effect is the dominant source of heat in the ISM and its efficiency is determined by the properties of interstellar dust grains (their abundance, size distribution and charge state, primarily).
Our knowledge of this crucial process is currently mostly theoretical, due to the lack of necessar…
