A field of order 130μG is required; by comparison, the local diffuse gas has a field 5μG (refs 24, 25).

Heiles has also been pivotal in understanding the diffuse gas in the interstellar medium, primarily through observation of the hydrogen line.

But if they are white dwarfs, they should have left detectable traces of carbon in the diffuse gas of surrounding space, and nothing like that has been observed.

None of the stars collide; instead the diffuse gas in each galaxy collides, creating a shock front like that created by a jet fighter going supersonic.

They contain large quantities of diffuse gas and are dynamically dominated by dark matter.

The hot diffuse gas in the Local Bubble emits X-rays.

It's distributed in clouds and as diffuse gas throughout interstellar space.

Limited radiospectrography suggests it is composed of solid particles admixed with diffuse gases.

This view shows large, wispy filamentary structures, smaller bright knots of gas, and patches of diffuse gas.

If he didn't soon find -- There it was: a cloud of metallic dust interspersed with diffuse gas, thick enough to obscure the rocks beyond.
