Deuterium fractionation of nitrogen hydrides: detections of NHD and ND
A. Bacmann, A. Faure, P. Hily-Blant +5
Although ammonia is an abundant molecule commonly observed towards the dense interstellar medium, it has not yet been established whether its main formation route is from gas-phase…
Seeds of Life in Space (SOLIS) III. Formamide in protostellar shocks: evidence for gas-phase formation
C. Codella, C. Ceccarelli, P. Caselli +47
Context: Modern versions of the Miller-Urey experiment claim that formamide (NHCHO) could be the starting point for the formation of metabolic and genetic macromolecules. Intri…
SOLIS II. Carbon-chain growth in the Solar-type protocluster OMC2-FIR4
F. Fontani, C. Ceccarelli, C. Favre +42
The interstellar delivery of carbon atoms locked into molecules might be one of the key ingredients for the emergence of life. Cyanopolyynes are carbon chains delimited at their tw…
DNC/HNC and N2D+/N2H+ ratios in high-mass star forming cores
F. Fontani, T. Sakai, K. Furuya +3
Chemical models predict that the deuterated fraction (the column density ratio between a molecule containing D and its counterpart containing H) of N2H+, Dfrac(N2H+), is high in ma…
