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.

The Milky Way Atlas for Linear Filaments III: Giant filaments and magnetic fields as evidence of a bubbly Galactic disk
Milky Way linear filaments exhibit no strong B-field alignment and bimodal galactic-plane orientations (parallel near midplane, perpendicular far from it), supporting a super-Alfvénic bubbly disk model.
