Interstellar carbonaceous dust erosion induced by X-ray irradiation of water ice in star-forming regions
K. -J. Chuang, C. Jaeger, N. -E. Sie +5
The chemical inventory of protoplanetary midplanes is the basis for forming planetesimals. Among them, solid-state reactions based on CO/CO toward molecular complexity on inter…
Effects of eV Electron Impacts on Pure Carbon Monoxide Ices using the Interstellar Energetic-Process System (IEPS)
C. -H. Huang, A. Ciaravella, C. Cecchi-Pestellini +6
Pure CO ice has been irradiated with electrons of energy in the range ~eV with the Interstellar Energetic-Process System (IEPS). The main products of irradiation are carb…
Synthesis of complex organic molecules in soft x-ray irradiated ices
A. Ciaravella, A. Jiménez-Escobar, C. Cecchi-Pestellini +4
We study the chemical evolution of H2O:CO:NH3 ice mixtures irradiated with soft X-rays, in the range 250-1250 eV. We identify many nitrogen-bearing molecules such as e.g., OCN-, NH…
Photo-desorption of H2O:CO:NH3 circumstellar ice analogs: Gas-phase enrichment
A. Jimenez-Escobar, A. Ciaravella, C. Cecchi-Pestellini +4
We study the photo-desorption occurring in HO:CO:NH ice mixtures irradiated with monochromatic (550 and 900 eV) and broad band (250--1250 eV) soft X-rays generated at the N…
Soft X-ray Irradiation of Silicates: Implications on Dust Evolution in Protoplanetary Disks
A. Ciaravella, C. Cecchi-Pestellini, Y. -J. Chen +4
The processing of energetic photons on bare silicate grains was simulated experimentally on silicate films submitted to soft X-rays of energies up to 1.25 keV. The silicate materia…
