A Potential New Dimension of Astrophysical Aromatic Functionalization: Phosphaethynyl (CP) Derivatives
Reace H. J. Willis, Vincent J. Esposito, Thomas H. Speak +2
Quantum chemical computations outline a thermodynamically viable, low-temperature, gas-phase formation pathway for phosphaethynyl cyclopropenylidene (-CHCP), resulting from…
Detection of the Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon Phenalene (CH) in the Very Low Luminosity Object (VeLLO) MC27/L1521F
Gabi Wenzel, Thomas H. Speak, Ci Xue +12
To date, 14 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) ranging in size from two to seven (including five- and six-membered) carbon rings have been detected in the starless dense core…
The impact of hydrogen atom tunneling on aromatic chemistry in TMC-1
Reace H. J. Willis, Thomas H. Speak, Alex N. Byrne +2
Hydrogen atom tunneling likely plays a substantial role in the gas-phase chemistry of astrochemical environments. To determine the potential effect that it has on the chemical mode…
