Filamentary

It was subsequently realised that the magnetic field signature is not consistent with this simple picture, leading us to speculate that there exists a more filamentary Birkeland current system with the observed variability linked to the highly dynamic and variable nature of the Enceladus outgassing. ❋ Unknown (2010)

New Hubble images taken on Jan. 25 and 29 show a complex X-pattern of filamentary structures near the nucleus. ❋ Unknown (2010)

"The filamentary appearance of P/2010 A2 is different from anything seen in Hubble images of normal comets, consistent with the action of a different process," Jewitt said. ❋ Ianrandalstrock (2010)

"The filamentary appearance of P/2010 A2 is different from anything seen in Hubble images of normal comets, consistent with the action of a different process," said David Jewitt, an astronomer at the University of California Los Angeles, in a press release. ❋ Unknown (2010)

What do these filamentary structures of dust represent? ❋ Unknown (2010)

Maps of the distribution of calcium have never been made before, and they reveal that the Local Cavity contains numerous filamentary structures of partially ionized gas that appear to form in a honeycomb-like pattern of small interstellar cells. ❋ Unknown (2010)

Although massive filamentary structures have been often observed at relatively small distances from us, solid proof of their existence in the more distant Universe has been lacking until now. ❋ Unknown (2009)

Birkeland currents often show filamentary, or twisted "rope-like" magnetic structure, and they create the aurora Borealis and Australis when they reach the upper atmosphere. ❋ Unknown (2009)

Deep prints of a red sensitive Schmidt plate Arp and Sulentic 1991 show unmistakable filamentary dust features reaching back along the minor axis direction toward M31. ❋ Unknown (2009)
