Chemical modelling of interstellar MgS
M. Rey-Montejo, I. Jimenez-Serra, T. Millar +8
The detection of magnesium sulphide (MgS) and sodium sulphide (NaS) towards the Galactic Center molecular cloud G+0.693 constitutes the first detection of metal sulphides in the in…
A detection of sulfur-bearing cyclic hydrocarbons in space
Mitsunori Araki, Miguel Sanz-Novo, Christian P. Endres +13
Molecules harbouring sulfur are thought to have played a key role in the biological processes of life on Earth, and thus, they are of much interest when found in space. Here we rep…
Measuring metal sulfides in interstellar dust with PRIMA
Izaskun Jiménez-Serra, Shaoshan Zeng, Yao-Lun Yang +5
Sulfur is known to undergo severe depletion when moving from diffuse clouds to the denser regimes of the interstellar medium in molecular clouds. The form in which sulfur gets depl…
Chemical templates of the Central Molecular Zone. Shock and protostellar object signatures under Galactic Center conditions
Katarzyna M. Dutkowska, Gijs Vermariën, Serena Viti +21
(Abridged) The Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) of the Milky Way exhibits extreme conditions, including high gas densities, elevated temperatures, enhanced cosmic-ray ionization rates,…
Determining the methanol deuteration in the disk around V883 Orionis with laboratory measured spectroscopy
Shaoshan Zeng, Jae-Hong Jeong, Takahiro Oyama +3
Deuterium fractionation, as studied through mono-deuterated methanol, is frequently used as a diagnostic tool to trace the physical conditions and chemical evolution of interstella…
On the abiotic origin of dimethyl sulfide: discovery of DMS in the Interstellar Medium
Miguel Sanz-Novo, VÃctor M. Rivilla, Christian P. Endres +14
Following the discovery of dimethyl sulfide (CHSCH, DMS) signatures in comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko, we report the first detection of this organosulfur species in the in…
