  Carbon monoxide (CO) is detected in nearly every astronomical source from comets to high redshift quasars. It is observed in absorption in the UV, and by emission due to rotational and vibrational transitions from the near IR to submillimeter wavelengths. In most environments, CO rovibrational levels have populations far from thermal equilibrium so that the populations are determined primarily by collisions with dominant neutral species (H2, He, H). While collisional excitation of CO has been studied theoretically and experimentally for many decades, it may seem surprising that large uncertainties, orders of magnitude in some cases, remained in our knowledge of key parameters until now. It is only in recent years that computational resources and algorithms have advanced sufficiently that nearly exact, full-dimensional calculations have become feasible. In this talk I will highlight our recent computational work on full-dimensional scattering calculations, focusing on the CO-H, CO-H2, and CO-He collision complexes for rotational and vibrational excitation. I will also discuss the role of collisional data in astrophysical modeling.

  Feeding and feedback in the multi-phase interstellar medium

  

  Guest: Alex Hill, Department of Astronomy, Haverford College

  The interstellar medium is the intermediary between star formation, stellar feedback, and galaxy evolution. Our understanding of the ISM has evolved from a static three-phase model into one in which turbulence and magnetic fields regulate a much more complex, dynamic medium. I will present magnetohydrodynamic simulations of this turbulent, multi-phase ISM, demonstrating the dynamic nature of the interaction between the star-forming disk and the Galactic halo. I will also discuss the implications for infall of gas into the Galaxy which feeds future star formation.
