Low cosmic-ray ionisation at parsec scales in G035.39-00.33
Andrea Socci, Ashley Barnes, Jaime Pineda +11
Cosmic rays (CRs) regulate the chemical evolution of the gas and its coupling to the magnetic field in the densest and coldest regions of the interstellar medium (ISM). However, th…
The complex organic molecular content in the L1517B starless core
Andrés MegÃas, Izaskun Jiménez-Serra, Jesús MartÃn-Pintado +5
Recent observations of the pre-stellar core L1544 and the younger starless core L1498 have revealed that complex organic molecules (COMs) are enhanced in the gas phase toward their…
ATOMS: ALMA Three-millimeter Observations of Massive Star-forming regions -- XIX. The origin of SiO emission
Rong Liu, Tie Liu, Izaskun Jiménez-Serra +23
The production of silicon monoxide (SiO) can be considered as a fingerprint of shock interaction. In this work, we use high-sensitivity observations of the SiO (2-1) and HCO…
First detection of a deuterated molecule in a starburst environment within NGC 253
J. Butterworth, S. MartÃn, V. M. Rivilla +7
Deuterium was primarily created during the Big Bang Nucleosynthesis (BBN). This fact, alongside its fractionation reactions resulting in enhanced abundances of deuterated molecules…
Interaction between the Supernova Remnant W44 and the Infrared Dark Cloud G034.77-00.55: shock induced star formation?
G. Cosentino, I. Jiménez-Serra, A. T. Barnes +11
How Supernova Remnant (SNR) shocks impact nearby molecular clouds is still poorly observationally constrained. It is unclear if SNRs can positively or negatively affect clouds star…
Disruption of a massive molecular cloud by a supernova in the Galactic Centre: Initial results from the ACES project
M. Nonhebel, A. T. Barnes, K. Immer +33
The Milky Way's Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) differs dramatically from our local solar neighbourhood, both in the extreme interstellar medium conditions it exhibits (e.g. high gas,…
