First detection of cyanamide (NHCN) towards solar-type protostars

A. Coutens, E. R. Willis, R. T. Garrod +11

Searches for the prebiotically-relevant cyanamide (NHCN) towards solar-type protostars have not been reported in the literature. We here present the first detection of this spe…

ALMA Detection of Interstellar Methoxymethanol (CHOCHOH)

Brett A. McGuire, Christopher N. Shingledecker, Eric R. Willis +10

We report the detection of interstellar methoxymethanol (CHOCHOH) in ALMA Bands 6 and 7 toward the MM1 core in the high-mass star-forming region NGC 6334I at ~0.1" - 1" spa…

Rotational and high-resolution infrared spectrum of HCN: global ro-vibrational analysis and improved line catalogue for astrophysical observations

Luca Bizzocchi, Filippo Tamassia, Jacob Laas +12

HCN is an ubiquitous molecule in interstellar environments, from external galaxies, to Galactic interstellar clouds, star forming regions, and planetary atmospheres. Observatio…

Kinetic Monte Carlo simulations of the grain-surface back-diffusion effect

Eric R. Willis, Robin T. Garrod

Back-diffusion is the phenomenon by which random walkers revisit binding sites on a lattice. This phenomenon must occur on interstellar dust particles, slowing down dust-grain reac…

Complex organic molecules in diffuse clouds along the line of sight to Sgr B2

V. Thiel, A. Belloche, K. M. Menten +2

Up to now, mostly relatively simple molecules have been detected in interstellar diffuse molecular clouds in our galaxy, but more complex species have been reported in the diffuse/…

Complex Organic Molecules Towards Embedded Low-Mass Protostars

Jennifer B. Bergner, Karin I. Öberg, Robin T. Garrod +1

Complex organic molecules (COMs) have been observed towards several low-mass young stellar objects (LYSOs). Small and heterogeneous samples have so far precluded conclusions on typ…
