New constraints on the initial parameters of low-mass star formation from chemical modeling
Thomas H. G. Vidal, Pierre Gratier, Neil Vaytet +2
The complexity of physico-chemical models of star formation is increasing, with models that take into account new processes and more realistic setups. These models allow astrochemi…
Chemical modelling of complex organic molecules with peptide-like bonds in star-forming regions
David Quénard, Izaskun Jiménez-Serra, Serena Viti +2
Peptide bonds (N-C=O) play a key role in metabolic processes since they link amino acids into peptide chains or proteins. Recently, several molecules containing peptide-like bonds…
Seeds Of Life In Space (SOLIS): The organic composition diversity at 300--1000 au scale in Solar-type star forming regions
C. Ceccarelli, P. Caselli, F. Fontani +43
Complex organic molecules have been observed for decades in the interstellar medium. Some of them might be considered as small bricks of the macromolecules at the base of terrestri…
Methyl isocyanate CH3NCO: An important missing organic in current astrochemical networks
Liton Majumdar, Jean-Christophe Loison, Maxime Ruaud +3
Methyl isocyanate (CH3NCO) is one of the important complex organic molecules detected on the comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko by Rosetta's Philae lander. It was also detected in hot…
Seeds of Life in Space (SOLIS) III. Formamide in protostellar shocks: evidence for gas-phase formation
C. Codella, C. Ceccarelli, P. Caselli +47
Context: Modern versions of the Miller-Urey experiment claim that formamide (NHCHO) could be the starting point for the formation of metabolic and genetic macromolecules. Intri…
SOLIS II. Carbon-chain growth in the Solar-type protocluster OMC2-FIR4
F. Fontani, C. Ceccarelli, C. Favre +42
The interstellar delivery of carbon atoms locked into molecules might be one of the key ingredients for the emergence of life. Cyanopolyynes are carbon chains delimited at their tw…
