Collisional excitation of E- and Z-ethanimine to model cold molecular clouds

Francesca Tonolo, Vivek Vijay, Ernesto Quintas-Sánchez +5

Context. Ethanimine is a prebiotically relevant complex organic molecule that has been proposed as a key precursor of amino acids in the interstellar medium. To date, both its E an…

Collisional energy transfer in ethanimine + He system

Vivek Vijay, Francesca Tonolo, Ernesto Quintas-Sánchez +5

The ethanimine molecule, CH3CHNH, is one of the prebiotic molecules detected by astronomers in chemically-rich molecular clouds in the Galactic Center. The observations indicate a…

Quantum and Structural Effects Captured via a Statistical Method: the SACM Applied to HCN and HNC Colliding with CO

F. Tonolo, E. Quintas-Sánchez, A. Batista-Planas +2

This work spotlights the Statistical Adiabatic Channel Model as an efficient and accurate method for deriving low temperature (de)-excitation rate coefficients for collisions induc…

Collisional excitation of HCN by CO to refine the modeling of cometary comae

Francesca Tonolo, Ernesto Quintas-Sánchez, Adrian Batista-Planas +2

We present the first dataset of collisional (de)-excitation rate coefficients of HCN induced by CO, one of the main perturbing gases in cometary atmospheres. The dataset spans the…

Ab initio quantum scattering calculations and a new potential energy surface for the HCl()-O() system: collision-induced line-shape parameters for O-perturbed R(0) 0-0 line in HCl

Artur Olejnik, Hubert Jóźwiak, Maciej Gancewski +3

The remote sensing of abundance and properties of HCl -- the main atmospheric reservoir of Cl atoms which directly participate in ozone depletion -- are important for monitoring th…

CF excitation in the interstellar medium

Benjamin Desrousseaux, François Lique, Javier R. Goicoechea +2

The detection of CF in interstellar clouds potentially allows astronomers to infer the elemental fluorine abundance and the ionization fraction in ultraviolet-illuminated molec…
