A deep Search for Ethylene Glycol and Glycolonitrile in the V883 Ori Protoplanetary Disk
Abubakar M. A. Fadul, Kamber R. Schwarz, Tushar Suhasaria +3
Ethylene glycol (, hereafter EG) and Glycolonitrile (, hereafter GN) are considered molecular precursors of nucleic acids. EG is a sugar alc…
Hydroxylated Mg-rich amorphous silicates as catalysts for molecular hydrogen formation in the interstellar medium
V. Mennella, T. Suhasaria, B. Kerkeni +1
We present results from an experimental study on the interaction of atomic deuterium with Mg-rich amorphous enstatite and forsterite type silicates. Infrared spectroscopy was used…
A deep search for Complex Organic Molecules toward the protoplanetary disk of V883 Ori
Abubakar M. A. Fadul, Kamber R. Schwarz, Merel L. R. van 't Hoff +4
Complex Organic Molecules (COMs) in the form of prebiotic molecules are potentially building blocks of life. Using Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) Band 7 observ…
Ly- processing of solid-state Ethanolamine: Potential Precursors to Sugar and Peptide Derivatives
T. Suhasaria, S. M. Wee, R. Basalgète +4
Ethanolamine (EA), a key component of phospholipids, has recently been detected in the interstellar medium within molecular clouds. To understand this observation, laboratory studi…
