Chemical evolution of some selected complex organic molecules in low-mass star-forming regions
Bratati Bhat, Rumela Kar, Suman Kumar Mondal +6
The destiny of complex organic molecules (COMs) in star-forming regions is interlinked with various evolutionary phases. Therefore, identifying these species in diversified environ…
The Automated Reaction-Pathway Search reveals the Energetically Favorable Synthesis of Interstellar CH3OCH3 and HCOOCH3
Yu Komatsu, Kenji Furuya
Recent astronomical observations have shown that interstellar complex organic molecules (COMs) exist even in cold environments (10 K), while various interstellar COMs have co…
Cosmic-ray-driven enhancement of the C/CO abundance ratio in W51C
Mitsuyoshi Yamagishi, Kenji Furuya, Hidetoshi Sano +5
We examine spatial variations of the C/CO abundance ratio () in the vicinity of the -ray supernova remnant W51C, based on [CI] (-), C…
Processing of hydroxylamine, NH2OH, an important prebiotic precursor, on interstellar ices
Gerán Molpeceres, Víctor. M. Rivilla, Kenji Furuya +3
Hydroxylamine, NH2OH, is one of the already detected interstellar molecules with the highest prebiotic potential. Yet, the abundance of this molecule found by astronomical observat…
Azimuthal C/O Variations in a Planet-Forming Disk
Luke Keyte, Mihkel Kama, Alice S. Booth +8
The elemental carbon-to-oxygen ratio (C/O) in the atmosphere of a giant planet is a promising diagnostic of that planet's formation history in a protoplanetary disk. Alongside effo…
The Detection of Hot Molecular Cores in the Small Magellanic Cloud
Takashi Shimonishi, Kei E. I. Tanaka, Yichen Zhang +1
We report the first detection of hot molecular cores in the Small Magellanic Cloud, a nearby dwarf galaxy with 0.2 solar metallicity. We observed two high-mass young stellar object…
Reaction dynamics on amorphous solid water surfaces using interatomic machine learned potentials. Microscopic energy partition revealed from the P + H -> PH reaction
Germán Molpeceres, Viktor Zaverkin, Kenji Furuya +2
Energy redistribution after a chemical reaction is one of the few mechanisms to explain the diffusion and desorption of molecules which require more energy than the thermal energy…
