Infrared photoprocessing of porous amorphous solid water with a free electron laser

J. G. M. Schrauwen, S. Ioppolo, L. Slumstrup +3

Water ice is the most abundant ice in the interstellar medium (ISM). Previous studies on porous amorphous solid water (pASW) have shown that the infrared radiation field in the ISM…

Detection of a four-carbon sugar in interstellar space

Izaskun Jimenez-Serra, Juan Garcia de la Concepcion, Herma M. Cuppen +19

Sugars are essential biomolecules, serving as metabolic fuels, nucleic acid backbone components, and structural or energy-storage polymers. A central question in origin-of-life res…

A sensitivity analysis of interstellar ice chemistry in astrochemical models

Tobias M. Dijkhuis, Thanja Lamberts, Serena Viti +1

Astrochemical models are essential to bridge the gap between the timescales of reactions, experiments, and observations. Ice chemistry in these models experiences a large computati…

Modelling methanol and hydride formation in the JWST Ice Age era

Izaskun Jiménez-Serra, Andrés Megías, Joseph Salaris +19

(Abridged) JWST observations have measured the ice composition toward two highly-extinguished field stars in the Chamaeleon I cloud. The observed extinction excess on the long-wave…

Laboratory and Computational Studies of Interstellar Ices

Herma M. Cuppen, Harold. Linnartz, Sergio Ioppolo

Ice mantles play a crucial role in shaping the astrochemical inventory of molecules during star and planet formation. Small-scale molecular processes have a profound impact on larg…
