Dissociation and destruction of PAHs and PAH clusters induced by absorption of X-rays in protoplanetary discs around T Tauri stars
K. Lange, C. Dominik, A. G. G. M. Tielens
Only 8% of the protoplanetary discs orbiting a T Tauri star show emission features of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). As PAHs are strong absorbers of UV radiation, they co…
The need for spatially resolved observations of PAHs in protoplanetary discs
K. Lange, C. Dominik, A. G. G. M. Tielens
The signatures of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) have been observed in protoplanetary discs, and their emission features obtained from spectral energy distributions (SED)…
Turbulent processing of PAHs in protoplanetary discs -- Coagulation and freeze-out leading to depletion of gas-phase PAH
K. Lange, C. Dominik, A. G. G. M. Tielens
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) have been detected in numerous circumstellar discs. We propose the continuous processing of PAHs through clustering, adsorption on dust grai…
Stability of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon Clusters in Protoplanetary Disks
K. Lange, C. Dominik, A. G. G. M. Tielens
The infrared signature of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are present in many protostellar disks and these speciesare thought to play an important role in heating of the ga…
