Probing the ubiquity of complex ices in protostars with JWST: the first systematic quantification of weak ice bands between 6.8 and 7.9 micron
Yuan Chen, Ewine F. van Dishoeck, Katerina Slavicinska +18
Complex organic molecules (COMs) are the key to understanding the chemical evolution from simple interstellar molecules to potential prebiotic material. Although COMs have been ext…
JOYS: Launching and destruction of dust in protostellar jets. The case of BHR71-IRS1 with JWST/MIRI
Åukasz Tychoniec, Logan Francis, Maria Gabriela Navarro +24
Protostellar winds can theoretically lift solids from the planet-forming disks, but direct evidence for launched dust has been scarce so far. Numerous atomic lines that are unique…
Expanding the Ice Inventory of NGC 1333 IRAS 2A with INDRA using JWST Observations: Tracing Organic Refractories and Beyond
Prathap Rayalacheruvu, Liton Majumdar, W. R. M. Rocha +7
In the era of JWST, with its unprecedented sensitivity and spectral resolution, infrared spectral surveys have revealed a rich inventory of ices, including complex organic molecule…
HDO ice detected toward an isolated low-mass protostar with JWST
Katerina Slavicinska, Åukasz Tychoniec, MarÃa Gabriela Navarro +15
Water is detected in environments representing every stage of star and solar system formation, but its chemical evolution throughout these stages remains poorly constrained. Deuter…
