A neural-network model to find correlations in astrochemical space
Daniel Giovanni Vargas, Darío Barreiro-Lage, Marcelino Agúndez +3
The detection of new interstellar molecules is central to astrochemistry, and arguably the most transformative development in the field in past decade has been the increase in both…
Thermally irreversible sulfur chemisorption on silicate grains as a major sulfur reservoir in molecular clouds
Ni-En Sie, Masashi Tsuge, Yasuhiro Oba +3
Sulfur (S) chemistry in the interstellar medium remains poorly constrained due to the longstanding "missing sulfur" problem, where a significant fraction of cosmic sulfur in molecu…
Formation of adducts of CH with Na, Mg and Al metal cations by radiative association
Niyazi Bulut, Octavio Roncero, Maria Mallo +6
The Mg-bearing cations MgCH, MgCH, MgCN, and MgCN have been recently observed in the carbon-rich envelope IRC\,+10216. These species are thought to…
Can cyanide radicals drive molecular backbone growth on interstellar icy grains?
Germán Molpeceres, Joan Enrique-Romero
Motivated by the value of CN-bearing molecules as tracers of interstellar physical conditions, we investigate the reactions of adsorbed CN radicals with acetylene and ethylene (C2H…
Atom Addition Formation of Thionylimide (HNSO) on Interstellar Dust Grains: Chemical routes requiring oxygen and nitrogen atom surface diffusion
Juan Carlos del Valle, Miguel Sanz-Novo, Johannes Kästner +4
We investigate the formation of the recently detected HNSO molecule using quantum chemical calculations on ices and astrochemical models in tandem. Our results indicate that HNSO i…
A gas-phase "top-down" chemical link between aldehydes and alcohols
Christopher N. Shingledecker, Germán Molpeceres, A. Mackenzie Flowers +3
Alcohols and aldehydes represent two key classes of interstellar complex organic molecules (COMs). This work seeks to better understand their possible chemical connections, with a…
