Chemical Demographics of Star-forming Regions

Maria N. Drozdovskaya, Timea Csengeri, Maria Teresa Beltrán +35

Our understanding of complex organic chemistry during the formation of stars and planets is shaped by a handful of cherry-picked sources with bright molecular emission lines. This…

PDRs4All XXIII. JWST-MIRI template spectra of PAHs in the Orion Bar obtained with blind signal separation

P. Amiot, O. Berné, J. Roux-Morin +12

The aromatic infrared bands (AIBs) are observed in a wide variety of astrophysical sources, and now in unprecedented detail by the James Webb space telescope (JWST). These bands ar…

H2 emission in the Orion Bar, NGC7023 and the Horsehead Nebula observed with the James Webb Space Telescope

M. Zannese, A. Sidhu, A. Guerras +25

Molecular hydrogen (H2), the most abundant molecule in the interstellar medium, is a handy tool to study Photodissociation Regions. The JWST, with its high spatial resolution, sens…

Survival of very small carbonaceous dust grains in the inner-CGM of NGC 891 from JWST/MIRI MRS

Jérémy Chastenet, Ilse De Looze, Karl D. Gordon +26

We present new spectroscopic observations of the inner circumgalactic medium (CGM) of NGC 891 taken with the Mid-Infrared Imager/Medium Resolution Spectroscopy instrument onboard J…

JWST observations of photodissociation regions. IV. Carbonaceous emission band sub-components in NGC 7023 have distinct spatial distributions

D. Van De Putte, K. D. Gordon, K. Misselt +10

We analyze JWST spectroscopy of the northwest filament of NGC7023, where the relatively soft radiation field results in a photodissociation region with an extended atomic hydrogen…

PDRs4All. X. ALMA and JWST detection of neutral carbon in the externally irradiated disk d203-506: Undepleted gas-phase carbon

Javier R. Goicoechea, J. Le Bourlot, J. H. Black +26

The gas-phase abundance of carbon, x_C = C/H, and its depletion factors are essential parameters for understanding the gas and solid compositions that are ultimately incorporated i…

JWST observations of the Horsehead photon-dominated region I. First results from multi-band near- and mid-infrared imaging

A. Abergel, K. Misselt, K. D. Gordon +14

The JWST has captured the sharpest IR images ever taken of the Horsehead nebula, a prototypical moderately irradiated PDR that is fully representative of most of the UV-illuminated…

PDRs4All VIII: Mid-IR emission line inventory of the Orion Bar

Dries Van De Putte, Raphael Meshaka, Boris Trahin +135

Mid-infrared emission features probe the properties of ionized gas, and hot or warm molecular gas. The Orion Bar is a frequently studied photodissociation region (PDR) containing l…

PDRs4All IX. Sulfur elemental abundance in the Orion Bar

Asunción Fuente, Evelyne Roueff, Franck Le Petit +31

One of the main problems in astrochemistry is determining the amount of sulfur in volatiles and refractories in the interstellar medium. The detection of the main sulfur reservoirs…

A far-ultraviolet-driven photoevaporation flow observed in a protoplanetary disk

Olivier Berné, Emilie Habart, Els Peeters +143

Most low-mass stars form in stellar clusters that also contain massive stars, which are sources of far-ultraviolet (FUV) radiation. Theoretical models predict that this FUV radiati…

Formation of the Methyl Cation by Photochemistry in a Protoplanetary Disk

Olivier Berné, Marie-Aline Martin-Drumel, Ilane Schroetter +53

Forty years ago it was proposed that gas phase organic chemistry in the interstellar medium was initiated by the methyl cation CH3+, but hitherto it has not been observed outside t…

PDRs4All. V. Modelling the dust evolution across the illuminated edge of the Orion Bar

M. Elyajouri, N. Ysard, A. Abergel +31

We study the emission of dust grains within the Orion Bar - a well-known, highly far-UV (FUV)-irradiated PDR. The Orion Bar because of its edge-on geometry provides an exceptional…

OH as a probe of the warm water cycle in planet-forming disks

Marion Zannese, Benoît Tabone, Emilie Habart +52

Water is a key ingredient for the emergence of life as we know it. Yet, its destruction and reformation in space remains unprobed in warm gas. Here, we detect the hydroxyl radical…

PDRs4All VI: Probing the Photochemical Evolution of PAHs in the Orion Bar Using Machine Learning Techniques

S. Pasquini, E. Peeters, B. Schefter +21

[Abridged] JWST observations of the Orion Bar have shown the incredible richness of PAH bands and their variation on small scales. We aim to probe the photochemical evolution of PA…

PDRs4All III: JWST's NIR spectroscopic view of the Orion Bar

Els Peeters, Emilie Habart, Olivier Berne +135

(Abridged) We investigate the impact of radiative feedback from massive stars on their natal cloud and focus on the transition from the HII region to the atomic PDR (crossing the i…

Far-ultraviolet Dust Extinction and Molecular Hydrogen in the Diffuse Milky Way Interstellar Medium

Dries Van De Putte, Stefan I. B. Cartledge, Karl D. Gordon +2

We aim to compare variations in the full-UV dust extinction curve (912-3000 Angstrom), with the HI/H/total H content along diffuse Milky Way sightlines, to investigate possible…
