Chemical Complexity in the Early Stages of Star Formation in the SKAO Era
Eleonora Bianchi, Mathilde Bouvier, Claudio Codella +44
About 350 molecules have been identified in the interstellar medium (ISM), including complex molecules relevant to prebiotic chemistry. A remarkable level of molecular diversity ha…
FAUST XXXI. Grain properties and variability of three sources in GSS 30
Q. Yang, H. Baobab Liu, S. Feng +55
To advance our understanding of dust properties in class 0/I young stellar objects, it is crucial to resolve their structures at multiple wavelengths and investigate how grain grow…
Testing the Physical Parameter Constraining Power of HCN and HNC with Neural Networks
Erica Behrens, Jeffrey G. Mangum, Mathilde Bouvier +2
We quantify the utility of HCN and HNC to characterize gas conditions in the nearby starburst galaxy NGC 253. We use measurements from the Atacama Large Millimeter/Submillimeter Ar…
The molecular diversity of the ISM in galaxies across cosmic time
Mathilde Bouvier, Yiqing Song, Michael Romano +7
Submillimetre molecular lines (e.g., CO, HCN, SiO) provide a uniquely powerful view of the physical and chemical processes that govern star formation (SF) and galaxy evolution. Yet…
A vision for ground-based astronomy beyond the 2030s: How to build ESO's next big telescope sustainably
Laurane Fréour, Mathilde Bouvier, Tony Mroczkowski +8
Astronomy is the study of the Universe and all the objects that it comprises. Our attention is therefore usually focused beyond Earth, home to the only form of life known today. Ho…
Investigating the chemical link between HCO and CHOH within the CMZ of NGC 253
K. -Y. Huang, E. Behrens, M. Bouvier +3
Formaldehyde (HCO) and methanol (CHOH) have served as traditional tracers of the star formation process for decades. Studies of the environments which produce these species…
