Molecular hydrogen formation on interstellar PAHs through Eley-Rideal abstraction reactions
N. Foley, S. Cazaux, D. Egorov +3
We present experimental data on H2 formation processes on gas-phase polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) cations. This process was studied by exposing coronene radical cations, co…
The sequence to hydrogenate coronene cations: A journey guided by magic numbers
Stéphanie Cazaux, Leon Boschman, Nathalie Rougeau +6
The understanding of hydrogen attachment to carbonaceous surfaces is essential to a wide variety of research fields and technologies such as hydrogen storage for transportation, pr…
H2 formation on PAHs in photodissociation regions: a high-temperature pathway to molecular hydrogen
Leon Boschman, Stéphanie Cazaux, Marco Spaans +2
Molecular hydrogen is the most abundant molecule in the Universe. It is thought that a large portion of H2 forms by association of hydrogen atoms to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon…
Hydrogenation of PAH cations: a first step towards H2 formation
L. Boschman, G. Reitsma, S. Cazaux +4
Molecular hydrogen is the most abundant molecule in the universe. A large fraction of H2 forms by association of hydrogen atoms adsorbed on polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs),…
When sticking influences H2 formation
S. Cazaux, S. Morisset, M. Spaans +1
Aims. Interstellar dust grains, because of their catalytic properties, are crucial to the formation of H2, the most abundant molecule in the Universe. The formation of molecular hy…
Molecular hydrogen formation on grain surfaces
S. Cazaux, P. Caselli, A. G. G. M. Tielens +2
We reconsider H2 formation on grain surfaces. We develop a rate equation model which takes into account the presence of both physisorbed and chemisorbed sites on the surface, inclu…
