ALMA and ROSINA detections of phosphorus-bearing molecules: the interstellar thread between star-forming regions and comets

V. M. Rivilla, M. N. Drozdovskaya, K. Altwegg +11

To understand how Phosphorus-bearing molecules are formed in star-forming regions, we have analysed ALMA observations of PN and PO towards the massive star-forming region AFGL 5142…

Effect of the isotropic collisions with neutral hydrogen on the polarization of the CN solar molecule

S. Qutub, M. Derouich, Y. N. Kalugina +2

Our work is concerned with the case of the solar molecule CN which presents conspicuous profiles of scattering polarization. We start by calculating accurate PES for the singlet an…

C-type shock modelling -- the effect of new H-H collisional rate coefficients

A. V. Nesterenok, D. Bossion, Y. Scribano +1

We consider collisional excitation of H molecules in C-type shocks propagating in dense molecular clouds. New data on collisional rate coefficients for (de-)excitation of H…

Collisional excitation of NH(3Σ-) by Ar: A new ab initio 3D potential energy surface and scattering calculations

D. Prudenzano, F. Lique, R. Ramachandran +2

Collisional excitation of light hydrides is important to fully understand the complex chemical and physical processes of atmospheric and astrophysical environments. Here, we focus…

Formation of interstellar SH from vibrationally excited H: Quantum study of S + H SH + H reactions and inelastic collisions

Alexandre Zanchet, Francois Lique, Octavio Roncero +2

The rate constants for the formation, destruction, and collisional excitation of SH are calculated from quantum mechanical approaches using two new SH potential energy su…
