Modeling the ortho-to-para abundance ratio of cyclic C3H2 in cold dense cores

In Hee Park, Valentine Wakelam, Eric Herbst

We report a detailed attempt to model the ortho-to-para abundance ratio of c-C3H2 so as to reproduce observed values in the cores of the well-known source TMC-1. According to obser…
