First detection of C2H+ in the interstellar medium
Arshia M. Jacob, Karl M. Menten, Sandra Brünken +10
Despite the detection of nearly 350 molecules in the interstellar medium, almost half of which are carbon chains, the pathways that build molecular complexity remain poorly underst…
High-resolution ro-vibrational and rotational spectroscopy of the open-shell, linear CCH ion ()
Kim Steenbakkers, Weslley G. D. P. Silva, Oskar Asvany +5
In this work, we report on the high-resolution infrared spectrum of CCH () recorded in the range ~cm by means of leak-out spectroscopy. This spectral ra…
PDRs4All XV: CH radical and H molecular ion in the irradiated protoplanetary disk d203-506
I. Schroetter, O. Berné, J. R. Goicoechea +20
Most protoplanetary disks experience a phase in which they are subjected to strong ultraviolet radiation from nearby massive stars. This UV radiation can substantially alter their…
Infrared Spectroscopy of Pentagon-Containing PAHs: Indenyl and Fluorenyl Anions and Indenyl Cation
Gabi Wenzel, Miguel Jiménez-Redondo, Milan OnÄák +4
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) ions are crucial intermediates in interstellar chemistry and may play a key role in the infrared emission features observed in space. Here, we…
