Infrared photoprocessing of porous amorphous solid water with a free electron laser
J. G. M. Schrauwen, S. Ioppolo, L. Slumstrup +3
Water ice is the most abundant ice in the interstellar medium (ISM). Previous studies on porous amorphous solid water (pASW) have shown that the infrared radiation field in the ISM…
Formation of methane and cyclohexane through the hydrogenation of toluene
A. T. Hopkinson, F. G. Doktor, J. Pitfield +3
Methylated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) have been hypothesised to be present in the interstellar medium (ISM) through their 3.4 and 6.9 m absorption bands. To investi…
Thermal desorption of astrophysically relevant molecules from forsterite(010)
T. Suhasaria, J. D. Thrower, H. Zacharias
We present temperature programmed desorption (TPD) measurements of CO, CH, O and CO from the forsterite(010) surface in the sub-monolayer and multilayer coverage regime…
Thermal desorption of ammonia from crystalline forsterite surfaces
T. Suhasaria, J. D. Thrower, H. Zacharias
The thermal desorption of ammonia (NH) from single crystal forsterite (010) has been investigated using temperature-programmed desorption. The effect of defects on the desorpti…
Laboratory investigations of the interaction between benzene and bare silicate grain surfaces
J. D. Thrower, M. P. Collings, F. J. M. Rutten +1
Experimental results on the thermal desorption of benzene (C6H6) from amorphous silica (SiO2) are presented. The amorphous SiO2 substrate was imaged using atomic force microscopy (…
Desorption of hot molecules from photon irradiated interstellar ices
J. D. Thrower, D. J. Burke, M. P. Collings +10
We present experimental measurements of photodesorption from ices of astrophysical relevance. Layers of benzene and water ice were irradiated with a laser tuned to an electronic tr…
