Detection of a four-carbon sugar in interstellar space
Izaskun Jimenez-Serra, Juan Garcia de la Concepcion, Herma M. Cuppen +19
Sugars are essential biomolecules, serving as metabolic fuels, nucleic acid backbone components, and structural or energy-storage polymers. A central question in origin-of-life res…
Molecular precursors of the RNA-world in space: new nitriles in the G+0.693-0.027 molecular cloud
Víctor M. Rivilla, Izaskun Jiménez-Serra, Jesus Martín-Pintado +10
Nitriles play a key role as molecular precursors in prebiotic experiments based on the RNA-world scenario for the origin of life. These chemical compounds could have been partially…
ALMA imaging of the cold molecular and dusty disk in the type 2 active nucleus of the Circinus galaxy
Konrad R. W. Tristram, C. M. Violette Impellizzeri, Zhi-Yu Zhang +9
We aim to shed light on the physical properties and kinematics of the molecular material in the nucleus of one of the closest type 2 active galaxies. To this end, we obtained high…
Methanol masers in NGC 253 with ALCHEMI
P. K. Humire, C. Henkel, A. Hernández-Gómez +23
Context: Methanol masers of Class I (collisionally-pumped) and Class II (radiatively-pumped) have been studied in great detail in our Galaxy in a variety of astrophysical environme…
