dc.description.abstract	The interstellar gas in galaxies is heated by stellar radiation and cosmic rays and it also cools through radiation. We take a detailed look at these processes in order to understand the thermal state of equilibrium of the interstellar gas. This gas also manifests itself in different ‘phases’–molecular, neutral atomic and ionized, each with its characteristic temperature and density, which we attempt to understand.	en_US
