Engage in a thought-provoking discussion on multiphase gas in astrophysics as part of the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics online conference. Explore recent advances in observations, computer simulations, and analytical insights that have led to significant developments in understanding the microphysics of fluid dynamics and instabilities across various astrophysical environments. Delve into topics ranging from intergalactic and circumgalactic media to winds from AGB stars and supernova remnants interacting with the interstellar medium, as well as galactic nuclei around black holes. Examine the common challenge of comprehending the origin, nature, and mixing of multiphase gas, including the interaction between thermal components and the influence of relativistic cosmic rays and radiation. Gain insights from experts in the field as they discuss physical processes and numerical implementations relevant to modeling multiphase gas in diverse astrophysical situations. Participate in a collaborative environment that aims to bridge the gap between different regimes of study, fostering discussions and potential collaborations among specialists from various areas of astrophysics.
