Scientific paper

The evolution and decay of the turbulent spectrum injected by a supernova explosion in the local environment is studied through an analytical solution of the dynamic equation. The results, when compared with HST high resolution absorption line data, are consistent with an explosion that occurred a few times 10(5) years ago and a turbulent outer scale ~ 10(18) cm. The study implies that the Galactic ISM must have a high porosity parameter Q to account for the observed degree of turbulence.
