Thermal desorption of interstellar ices. A review on the controlling parameters and their implications fromsnowlines to chemical complexity

Marco Minissale, Yuri Aikawa, Edwin Bergin +16

The evolution of star-forming regions and their thermal balance are strongly influenced by their chemical composition, that, in turn, is determined by the physico-chemical processe…

Dust temperature and time-dependent effects in the chemistry of photodissociation regions

Gisela Esplugues, Stephanie Cazaux, Paola Caselli +2

When studying the chemistry of PDRs, time dependence becomes important as visual extinction increases, since certain chemical timescales are comparable to the cloud lifetime. Dust…

Warm dust surface chemistry. H2 and HD formation

W. F. Thi, S. Hocuk, I. Kamp +4

Molecular hydrogen (H2) is the main constituent of the gas in the planet-forming disks that surround many PMS stars. H2 can be incorporated in the atmosphere of the giant planets.…

Warm dust surface chemistry in protoplanetary disks. Formation of phyllosilicates

W. F. Thi, S. Hocuk, I. Kamp +5

The origin of the reservoirs of water on Earth is debated. The Earth's crust may contain at least three times more water than the oceans. This crust water is found in the form of p…

Parameterizing the interstellar dust temperature

S. Hocuk, L. Szucs, P. Caselli +3

The temperature of interstellar dust particles is of great importance to astronomers. It plays a crucial role in the thermodynamics of interstellar clouds, because of the gas-dust…

Surface chemistry in photodissociation regions

G. B. Esplugues, S. Cazaux, R. Meijerink +2

The presence of dust can strongly affect the chemical composition of the interstellar medium. We model the chemistry in photodissociation regions (PDRs) using both gas-phase and du…
