Abstract -- The strengths of magnetic fields in interstellar gas clouds are obtained through observations of the circular polarization of spectral line radiation. ... To infer information about these irregularities from the observational data, we develop statistical relationships between the rms values of the irregular component of the magnetic field and spatial variations in the circular polarization of the spectral line radiation. ...

Close binary systems of the RS CVn and Algol type are characterized by a highly variable radio emission, from typical flux densities of a few mJy during low-activity (quiescent) periods, up to 1 Jy during strong flares. The origin of this radio emission is attributed to the gyrosynchrotron mechanism. Several observations of these stars have shown an evolution of the radio spectrum during both the rising and decay phases of flares. ...

... The high angular resolution CGPS images of atomic hydrogen emission reveal a wide-spread, cold atomic hydrogen component of the interstellar medium in the form of dark self-absorption cloud complexes. These clouds resemble molecular cloud complexes in structure and trace the spiral arm structure of the Galaxy. ... Nevertheless, continuum absorption studies show that some of the cold atomic hydrogen clouds have temperatures as low as 15 - 20 K --- similar to dense molecular clouds. ...
