Charge transfer of polyatomic molecules in ion-atom hybrid traps: Stereodynamics in the millikelvin regime
Alexandre Voute, Alexander Dörfler, Laurent Wiesenfeld +4
Rate constants for the charge transfer reaction between NH and Rb in the mK regime are measured in an ion-atom hybrid trap and are found to be lower than the Langev…
Deuteration of c-CH towards the pre-stellar core L1544
K. Giers, S. Spezzano, F. Alves +7
Context: In the centre of pre-stellar cores, the deuterium fractionation is enhanced due to the cold temperatures and high densities. Therefore, the chemistry of deuterated molecul…
Quantum nature of molecular vibrational quenching: Water - molecular hydrogen collisions
Laurent Wiesenfeld
Rates of conversions of molecular internal energy to and from kinetic energy by means of molecular collision allows to compute collisional line shapes and transport properties of g…
Modelling the abundance structure of isocyanic acid (HNCO) toward the low-mass solar type protostar IRAS 16293-2422
Antonio Hernández-Gómez, Emna Sahnoun, Emmanuel Caux +5
Isocyanic acid (HNCO), the most stable of the simplest molecules containing the four main elements essential for organic chemistry, has been observed in several astrophysical envir…
The Dense Gas Fraction in Galactic Center Clouds
E. A. C. Mills, A. Ginsburg, K. Immer +5
We present an analysis of gas densities in the central R=300 parsecs of the Milky Way, focusing on three clouds: GCM-0.02-0.07 (the 50 km/s cloud), GCM-0.13-0.08 (the 20 km/s cloud…
Theory of Gas Phase Scattering and Reactivity for Astrochemistry
Laurent Wiesenfeld, Wing-Fai Thi, Paola Caselli +13
Because of the very peculiar conditions of chemistry in many astrophysical gases (low densities, mostly low temperatures, kinetics-dominated chemical evolution), great efforts have…
