Collisional energy transfer in ethanimine + He system
Vivek Vijay, Francesca Tonolo, Ernesto Quintas-Sánchez +5
The ethanimine molecule, CH3CHNH, is one of the prebiotic molecules detected by astronomers in chemically-rich molecular clouds in the Galactic Center. The observations indicate a…

Collisional excitation of HCN by CO to refine the modeling of cometary comae
Francesca Tonolo, Ernesto Quintas-Sánchez, Adrian Batista-Planas +2
We present the first dataset of collisional (de)-excitation rate coefficients of HCN induced by CO, one of the main perturbing gases in cometary atmospheres. The dataset spans the…
