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…

Thioacetaldehyde (CH3CHS) on interstellar ices: a key molecule to unravel two chemical dichotomies in the ISM

María Mallo, Miguel Sanz-Novo, Marcelino Agúndez +6

Thioacetaldehyde (CH3CHS), recently detected in TMC-1, has an abundance approximately 36 times lower than its oxygen analog, acetaldehyde (CH3CHO). This makes the CH3CHS/CH3CHO pai…

Atmospheric molecular blobs shape up circumstellar envelopes of AGB stars

L. Velilla-Prieto, J. P. Fonfría, M. Agúndez +8

During their thermally pulsing phase, Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB) stars eject material that forms extended dusty envelopes. Visible polarimetric imaging found clumpy dust clouds…

Formation of the Methyl Cation by Photochemistry in a Protoplanetary Disk

Olivier Berné, Marie-Aline Martin-Drumel, Ilane Schroetter +53

Forty years ago it was proposed that gas phase organic chemistry in the interstellar medium was initiated by the methyl cation CH3+, but hitherto it has not been observed outside t…

Aromatic cycles are widespread in cold clouds

M. Agundez, N. Marcelino, B. Tercero +1

We report the detection of large hydrocarbon cycles toward several cold dense clouds. We observed four sources (L1495B, Lupus-1A, L483, and L1527) in the Q band (31-50 GHz) using t…

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…
