Detection of Deuterated Hydrocarbon Nanoparticles in the Whirlpool Galaxy, M51
B. T. Draine, Karin Sandstrom, Daniel A. Dale +29
Deuteration of hydrocarbon material, including polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), has been proposed to account for the low gas-phase abundances of D in the interstellar mediu…
