The gas-phase reaction of NH2 with formaldehyde (CH2O) is not a source of formamide (NH2CHO) in interstellar environments

Kevin M. Douglas, Daniel Lucas, Catherine Walsh +3

The first experimental study of the low-temperature kinetics of the gas-phase reaction of NH2 with formaldehyde (CH2O) has been performed. This reaction has previously been suggest…

Fevering Interstellar Ices Have More CH3OD

Beatrice M. Kulterer, Maria N. Drozdovskaya, Stefano Antonellini +2

Mono-deuterated methanol is thought to form during the prestellar core stage of star formation. Observed variations in the CH2DOH/CH3OD ratio suggest that its formation is strongly…

Surface astrochemistry: a computational chemistry perspective

H. M. Cuppen, A. Fredon, T. Lamberts +3

Molecules in space are synthesized via a large variety of gas-phase reactions, and reactions on dust-grain surfaces, where the surface acts as a catalyst. Especially, saturated, hy…

Astrochemical modelling of infrared dark clouds

Negar Entekhabi, Jonathan C. Tan, Giuliana Cosentino +8

Infrared dark clouds (IRDCs) are cold, dense regions of the interstellar medium (ISM) that are likely to represent the initial conditions for massive star formation. It is thus imp…

Molecules with ALMA at Planet-forming Scales (MAPS) IV: Emission Surfaces and Vertical Distribution of Molecules

Charles J. Law, Richard Teague, Ryan A. Loomis +32

The Molecules with ALMA at Planet-forming Scales (MAPS) Large Program provides a unique opportunity to study the vertical distribution of gas, chemistry, and temperature in the pro…

Molecules with ALMA at Planet-forming Scales (MAPS) XII: Inferring the C/O and S/H ratios in Protoplanetary Disks with Sulfur Molecules

Romane Le Gal, Karin I. Öberg, Richard Teague +24

Sulfur-bearing molecules play an important role in prebiotic chemistry and planet habitability. They are also proposed probes of chemical ages, elemental C/O ratio, and grain chemi…
