Temperature spectra of interstellar dust grains heated by cosmic-rays II: dark cloud cores
Juris Kalvāns
Cosmic-ray (CR) induced heating of whole interstellar grains is an important desorption mechanism for grain surface molecules in interstellar molecular clouds. This study aims to p…

The efficiency of photodissociation for molecules in interstellar ices
Juris Kalvans
Processing by interstellar photons affects the composition of the icy mantles on interstellar grains. The rate of photodissociation in solids differs from that of molecules in the…

The Effects of Subsurface Chemistry in the Grain Mantles on the Deuterium Chemistry in Molecular Clouds
Juris Kalvans, Ivar Shmeld
The deuterium enrichment in molecules in dark molecular cloud cores and starforming regions is usually attributed to gas-phase chemistry. Here we examine the effects of surface and…
