Water ice: temperature-dependent refractive indexes and their astrophysical implications
W. R. M. Rocha, M. G. Rachid, M. K. McClure +2
Interstellar ices are largely composed of frozen water. It is important to derive fundamental parameters for HO ice such as absorption and scattering opacities for which accura…
The edge-on protoplanetary disk HH 48 NE II. Modeling ices and silicates
J. A. Sturm, M. K. McClure, J. B. Bergner +11
The abundance and distribution of ice in protoplanetary disks (PPD) is critical to understand the linkage between the composition of circumstellar matter and the composition of exo…
The edge-on protoplanetary disk HH 48 NE I. Modeling the geometry and stellar parameters
J. A. Sturm, M. K. McClure, C. J. Law +11
Context. Observations of edge-on disks are an important tool for constraining general protoplanetary disk properties that cannot be determined in any other way. However, most radia…
Disentangling protoplanetary disk gas mass and carbon depletion through combined atomic and molecular tracers
J. A. Sturm, A. S. Booth, M. K. McClure +2
The total disk gas mass and elemental C, N, O composition of protoplanetary disks are crucial ingredients for our understanding of planet formation. Measuring the gas mass is compl…
LIDA - The Leiden Ice Database for Astrochemistry
W. R. M. Rocha, M. G. Rachid, B. Olsthoorn +3
High quality vibrational spectra of solid-phase molecules in ice mixtures and for temperatures of astrophysical relevance are needed to interpret infrared observations toward proto…
Ice Age : Chemo-dynamical modeling of Cha-MMS1 to predict new solid-phase species for detection with JWST
Mihwa Jin, Ka Ho Lam, Melissa K. McClure +6
Chemical models and experiments indicate that interstellar dust grains and their ice mantles play an important role in the production of complex organic molecules (COMs). To date,…
