This comprehensive textbook, the inaugural volume in the Ohio State Astrophysics Series, delves into every facet of the interstellar and intergalactic medium, catering to graduate students and advanced undergraduates. The primary objective of this series is to impart the fundamental knowledge on a subject that every astrophysics graduate student should possess, without delving into exhaustive detail. This text encompasses a thorough exploration of the circumgalactic medium, which serves as a bridge between the interstellar and intergalactic gas, as well as the hot intracluster gas found within galaxy clusters. Its innovative scope sets it apart from most current textbooks, which typically treat the interstellar medium in isolation. The authors place significant emphasis on developing an order-of-magnitude understanding of the physical processes that govern the heating and cooling of the low-density gas in the universe, as well as the mechanisms of ionization, recombination, and molecule formation. Each chapter concludes with a series of problems, accompanied by online projects, data sets, and additional resources to enhance the learning experience.
