Molecular Evolution and Star Formation: From Prestellar Cores to Protostellar Cores
Yuri Aikawa, Valentine Wakelam, Robin T. Garrod +1
We investigate molecular evolution in a star-forming core that is initially a hydrostatic starless core and collapses to form a low-mass protostar. The results of a one-dimensional…
Chemistry in Protoplanetary Disks: A Sensitivity Analysis
A. I. Vasyunin, D. Semenov, Th. Henning +3
We study how uncertainties in the rate coefficients of chemical reactions in the RATE06 database affect abundances and column densities of key molecules in protoplanetary disks. We…
Non-thermal desorption from interstellar dust grains via exothermic surface reactions
R. T. Garrod, V. Wakelam, E. Herbst
Aims: The gas-phase abundance of methanol in dark quiescent cores in the interstellar medium cannot be explained by gas-phase chemistry. In fact, the only possible synthesis of thi…
