PDRs4All III: JWST's NIR spectroscopic view of the Orion Bar

Els Peeters, Emilie Habart, Olivier Berne +135

(Abridged) We investigate the impact of radiative feedback from massive stars on their natal cloud and focus on the transition from the HII region to the atomic PDR (crossing the i…

PDRs4All IV. An embarrassment of riches: Aromatic infrared bands in the Orion Bar

Ryan Chown, Ameek Sidhu, Els Peeters +136

(Abridged) Mid-infrared observations of photodissociation regions (PDRs) are dominated by strong emission features called aromatic infrared bands (AIBs). The most prominent AIBs ar…

PDRs4All: A JWST Early Release Science Program on radiative feedback from massive stars

Olivier Berné, Émilie Habart, Els Peeters +134

Massive stars disrupt their natal molecular cloud material through radiative and mechanical feedback processes. These processes have profound effects on the evolution of interstell…

Laboratory Rotational Spectra of Silyl Isocyanide

Kin Long Kelvin Lee, Carl A. Gottlieb, Michael C. McCarthy

The rotational spectrum of silyl isocyanide (SiHNC), an isomer of the well studied silyl cyanide (SiHCN), has been detected in the laboratory in a supersonic molecular beam…

A study of the CH isomers and isotopologues: first interstellar detection of HDCCC

S. Spezzano, H. Gupta, S. Brünken +8

The partially deuterated linear isomer HDCCC of the ubiquitous cyclic carbene (-CH) was observed in the starless cores TMC-1C and L1544 at 96.9 GHz, and a confirming lin…

Astronomical identification of CN-, the smallest observed molecular anion

M. Agundez, J. Cernicharo, M. Guelin +11

We present the first astronomical detection of a diatomic negative ion, the cyanide anion CN-, as well as quantum mechanical calculations of the excitation of this anion through co…
