Investigating solid-state CH3OH formation with chemical modelling
K. -Y. Huang, E. Méndez-Robayo, S. Viti +1
Context. Recent Monte Carlo simulations and laboratory studies of interstellar ices have proposed an alternative pathway involving the radical-molecule H-atom abstraction reaction…
Investigating the chemical link between HCO and CHOH within the CMZ of NGC 253
K. -Y. Huang, E. Behrens, M. Bouvier +3
Formaldehyde (HCO) and methanol (CHOH) have served as traditional tracers of the star formation process for decades. Studies of the environments which produce these species…
An ALCHEMI inspection of sulphur-bearing species towards the central molecular zone of NGC 253
M. Bouvier, S. Viti, E. Behrens +19
Sulphur-bearing species are detected in various environments within Galactic star-forming regions and are particularly abundant in the gas phase of outflows and shocks, and photo-d…
High-energy neutrinos from the vicinity of the supermassive black hole in NGC 1068
P. Padovani, E. Resconi, M. Ajello +12
We present a comprehensive multi-messenger study of NGC 1068, the prototype Seyfert II galaxy recently associated with high-energy IceCube neutrinos. Various aspects of the source,…
Multi-transition study of methanol towards NGC 1068 with ALMA
K. -Y. Huang, D. Abbink, S. Viti +1
The outflowing molecular gas in the circumnuclear disk (CND) of the nearby (D=14 Mpc) AGN-starburst composite galaxy NGC 1068 is considered as a manifestation of ongoing AGN feedba…
Molecular isotopologue measurements toward super star clusters and the relation to their ages in NGC253 with ALCHEMI
J. Butterworth, S. Viti, P. P. Van der Werf +18
Determining the evolution of the CNO isotopes in the interstellar medium (ISM) of starburst galaxies can yield important constraints on the ages of superstar clusters (SSCs), or on…
