Similar levels of deuteration in the pre-stellar core L1544 and the protostellar core HH211

K. Giers, S. Spezzano, P. Caselli +6

In the centre of pre-stellar cores, deuterium fractionation is enhanced due to the low temperatures and high densities. Therefore, the chemistry of deuterated molecules can be used…

High resolution study of outflows and chemical environment of First Hydrostatic Core candidate Chamaeleon-MMS1

Veronica Allen, Martin A. Cordiner, Gilles Adande +3

The earliest stages of low-mass star-formation are unclear, but it has been proposed that Chamaeleon-MMS1 is a candidate First Hydrostatic Core (FHSC), the transition stage between…

A Search for O_2 in CO-depleted Molecular Cloud Cores with Herschel

Eva S. Wirström, Steven B. Charnley, Martin A. Cordiner +1

The general lack of molecular oxygen in molecular clouds is an outstanding problem in astrochemistry. Extensive searches with SWAS, Odin and Herschel have only produced two detecti…

Ortho-to-para ratio of NH2. Herschel-HIFI observations of ortho- and para-NH2 rotational transitions towards W31C, W49N, W51 and G34.3+0.1

C. M. Persson, A. O. H. Olofsson, R. Le Gal +10

We have used the Herschel-HIFI instrument to observe both nuclear spin symmetries of amidogen (NH2) towards the high-mass star-forming regions W31C (G10.6-0.4), W49N (G43.2-0.1), W…

Cold Water Vapor in the Barnard 5 Molecular Cloud

E. S. Wirström, S. B. Charnley, C. M. Persson +3

After more than 30 years of investigations, the nature of gas-grain interactions at low temperatures remains an unresolved issue in astrochemistry. Water ice is the dominant ice fo…

On the ubiquity of molecular anions in the dense interstellar medium

M. A. Cordiner, J. V. Buckle, E. S. Wirström +2

Results are presented from a survey for molecular anions in seven nearby Galactic star-forming cores and molecular clouds. The hydrocarbon anion C6H- is detected in all seven targe…
