S. P. Trevino-Morales, A. Fuente, A. Sanchez-Monge +12
The CO+ reactive ion is thought to be a tracer of the boundary between a HII region and the hot molecular gas. In this study, we present the spatial distribution of the CO+ rotatio…
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and molecular hydrogen in oxygen-rich planetary nebulae: the case of NGC6720
N. L. J. Cox, P. Pilleri, O. Berne +2
Evolved stars are primary sources for the formation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and dust grains. Their circumstellar chemistry is usually designated as either oxygen…
The infrared signatures of very small grains in the Universe seen by JWST
Paolo Pilleri, Olivier Berné, Christine Joblin
The near- and mid-IR spectrum of many astronomical objects is dominated by emission bands due to UV-excited polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) and evaporating very small grains…
