Much of the baryonic matter in the Universe is in the form of H2 which includes most of the gas in galactic and extragalactic interstellar clouds. Molecular hydrogen plays a significant role in establishing the thermal balance in many astrophysical environments and can be important as a spectral diagnostic of the gas. Modeling and interpretation of observations of such environments requires a quantitatively complete and accurate treatment of H2. Using this micro-physical model of H2, illustrative calculations of prototypical astrophysical environments are presented. This work forms the foundation for future investigations of these and other environments where H2 is an important constituent.

Resolving dense photo-dissociation regions: the structure of photochemical fronts in three-dimensional gas distributions
A three-dimensional PDR model shows that overlapping H2 dissociation and C+ recombination fronts, plus the arc-like H2 emission seen in the Orion Bar, arise from shadowing by dense clumps in a fractal gas distribution.

Unveiling Metal Mixing in a Grand-Design Spiral: A UV-optical multiphase spatially resolved study of M83
Multiphase abundance mapping of M83 reveals a persistent roughly 1.5 dex nitrogen excess in ionized gas relative to neutral gas around young clusters, indicating slow metal mixing in a massive spiral.

Direct Collapse Black Hole Candidates from Decaying Dark Matter
Axion dark matter decay injects 1-13.6 eV photons that suppress H2, enabling atomic cooling halos and direct collapse black hole seeds for axion masses 24.5-26.5 eV and couplings down to 4e-12/GeV.
