First detection of interstellar S2H

Asunción Fuente, Javier R. Goicoechea, Jerome Pety +11

We present the first detection of gas phase S2H in the Horsehead, a moderately UV-irradiated nebula. This confirms the presence of doubly sulfuretted species in the interstellar me…

Methyl isocyanate CH3NCO: An important missing organic in current astrochemical networks

Liton Majumdar, Jean-Christophe Loison, Maxime Ruaud +3

Methyl isocyanate (CH3NCO) is one of the important complex organic molecules detected on the comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko by Rosetta's Philae lander. It was also detected in hot…

The interstellar chemistry of C3H and C3H2 isomers

Jean-Christophe Loison, Marcelino Agundez, Valentine Wakelam +6

We report the detection of linear and cyclic isomers of C3H and C3H2 towards various starless cores and review the corresponding chemical pathways involving neutral (C3Hx with x=1,…

State-to-state chemistry and rotational excitation of CH in photon-dominated regions

A. Faure, P. Halvick, T. Stoecklin +9

We present a detailed theoretical study of the rotational excitation of CH due to reactive and nonreactive collisions involving C, H, CH, H and free electrons.…

On the reservoir of sulphur in dark clouds : chemistry and elemental abundance reconciled

Thomas H. G. Vidal, Jean-Christophe Loison, Adam Yassin Jaziri +3

Sulphur-bearing species are often used to probe the physical structure of star forming regions of the interstellar medium, but the chemistry of sulphur in these regions is still po…

Binding energies: new values and impact on the efficiency of chemical desorption

V. Wakelam, J. -C. Loison, R. Mereau +1

Recent laboratory measurements have confirmed that chemical desorption (desorption of products due to exothermic surface reactions) can be an efficient process. The impact of inclu…
