Surface Diffusion of Carbon Atoms as a Driver of Interstellar Organic Chemistry
Masashi Tsuge, Germán Molpeceres, Yuri Aikawa +1
Many interstellar complex organic molecules (COMs) are believed to be produced on the surfaces of icy grains at low temperatures. Atomic carbon is considered responsible for the sk…
Diffusion activation energy and desorption activation energy for astrochemically relevant species on water ice show no clear relation
Kenji Furuya, Tetsuya Hama, Yasuhiro Oba +3
The activation energy for desorption (Edes) and that for surface diffusion (Esd) of adsorbed molecules on dust grains are two of the most important parameters for the chemistry in…
Chemical and Physical Characterization of the Isolated Protostellar Source CB68: FAUST. IV
Muneaki Imai, Yoko Oya, Brian Svoboda +1
Chemical diversity of low-mass protostellar sources has so far been recognized, and environmental effects are invoked as its origin. In this context, observations of isolated proto…
Penetration of Non-energetic Hydrogen Atoms into Amorphous Solid Water and their Reaction with Embedded Benzene and Naphthalene
Masashi Tsuge, Akira Kouchi, Naoki Watanabe
Chemical processes on the surface of icy grains play an important role in the chemical evolution in molecular clouds. In particular, reactions involving non-energetic hydrogen atom…
Hydrogen abstraction reactions in formic and thioformic acid isomers by hydrogen and deuterium atoms. Insights on isomerism and deuteration
Germán Molpeceres, Izaskun Jiménez-Serra, Yasuhiro Oba +6
The isomerism of molecules in the interstellar medium and the mechanisms behind it are essential questions in the chemistry of organic molecules in space. In particular, for the si…
Thermal desorption of interstellar ices. A review on the controlling parameters and their implications fromsnowlines to chemical complexity
Marco Minissale, Yuri Aikawa, Edwin Bergin +16
The evolution of star-forming regions and their thermal balance are strongly influenced by their chemical composition, that, in turn, is determined by the physico-chemical processe…
