Realistic ISM fluctuations from TIGRESS-NCR MHD simulations drive stellar radial heating with σ_R ∝ t^{1/2} (early, cold) and t^{1/5} (late, warm) plus substantial migration explained by quasilinear theory with λ_* ~600 pc and τ_* ~70 Myr.

A model based on Chandrasekhar's 1951 time-invariant quantity quantitatively explains the Mach-number dependence of the density power spectrum slope in isothermal supersonic turbulence and demonstrates that the slope cannot reliably determine the Mach number.
Multiphase observations show molecular gas mass loading factors 10 times higher than ionised gas in ESO 484-036, creating a 3.5 dex discrepancy with cosmological simulations that underpredict cold gas outflows.
ALMA CO observations of NGC 4565 reveal a thin non-flaring molecular disk with a central gap, consistent GMC properties to 17 kpc, and a prominent star-forming ring feature.
Massive young star clusters clear their natal gas faster than lower-mass clusters, based on HST and JWST imaging of four galaxies.
Observational study of MBM12 shows CO-to-H2 conversion factor near galactic average with density-dependent variations, high virial parameters decreasing at small scales, broken power-law mass-size relations indicating external pressure, and magnetic field orientation transition at N(H2) = 4.5e21 cm-
Observational study of 100 LMC GMCs finds median 13CO(2-1)/12CO(2-1) line ratio of 0.078, nearly linear with luminosity, and higher in clouds hosting IR-bright young stellar objects.
ALMA CO data in NGC 3351's CMZ shows a size-linewidth slope of 0.58, ordered motions stronger above 30 pc and random motions below, with free-fall times comparable to ordered crossing times across scales.
Dwarf irregular galaxies form stars sequentially in dispersed HI clouds and on expanding cavity rims at ~1% efficiency per free-fall time, comparable to spiral galaxy clouds but without CO due to lower metallicity.

Interstellar Medium-Driven Orbital Transport -- I. Radial Heating and Migration
Realistic ISM fluctuations from TIGRESS-NCR MHD simulations drive stellar radial heating with σ_R ∝ t^{1/2} (early, cold) and t^{1/5} (late, warm) plus substantial migration explained by quasilinear theory with λ_* ~600 pc and τ_* ~70 Myr.

The slope of the power spectrum of the density field in isothermal supersonic compressible turbulence
A model based on Chandrasekhar's 1951 time-invariant quantity quantitatively explains the Mach-number dependence of the density power spectrum slope in isothermal supersonic turbulence and demonstrates that the slope cannot reliably determine the Mach number.
