Electron irradiation and temperature-programmed desorption of layered ethanolamine-water-methanol ices
Tara L. Stoib, Alejandro Guerrero-Caicedo, Duncan V. Mifsud +12
Ethanolamine (EtA) is a recently detected interstellar complex organic molecule and a potential precursor to more functionalised N-bearing species. We investigate the electron-driv…
Sulfur Ion Implantations Into Condensed CO2: Implications for Europa
D. V. Mifsud, Z. Kaňuchová, P. Herczku +12
The ubiquity of sulfur ions within the Jovian magnetosphere has led to suggestions that the implantation of these ions into the surface of Europa may lead to the formation of SO2.…
Energetic Electron Irradiations of Amorphous and Crystalline Sulphur-Bearing Astrochemical Ices
Duncan V. Mifsud, Péter Herczku, Richárd Rácz +10
Laboratory experiments have confirmed that the radiolytic decay rate of astrochemical ice analogues is dependent upon the solid phase of the target ice, with some crystalline molec…
Ozone Production in Electron Irradiated CO2:O2 Ices
Duncan V. Mifsud, Zuzana Kaňuchová, Sergio Ioppolo +9
The detection of ozone (O3) in the surface ices of Ganymede, Jupiters largest moon, and of the Saturnian moons Rhea and Dione, has motivated several studies on the route of formati…
Laboratory Experiments on the Radiation Astrochemistry of Water Ice Phases
Duncan V. Mifsud, Perry A. Hailey, Péter Herczku +8
Water (H2O) ice is ubiquitous component of the universe, having been detected in a variety of interstellar and Solar System environments where radiation plays an important role in…
On the origin of molecular oxygen on the surface of Ganymede
A. Migliorini, Z. Kanuchova, S. Ioppolo +6
Since its first identification on the surface of Ganymede in 1995, molecular oxygen (O2) ice has been at the center of a scientific debate as the surface temperature of the Jovian…
Comparative Electron Irradiations of Amorphous and Crystalline Astrophysical Ice Analogues
Duncan V. Mifsud, Perry A. Hailey, Péter Herczku +8
Laboratory studies of the radiation chemistry occurring in astrophysical ices have demonstrated the dependence of this chemistry on a number of experimental parameters. One experim…
Mid-IR and VUV Spectroscopic Characterisation of Thermally Processed and Electron Irradiated CO2 Astrophysical Ice Analogues
DV Mifsud, Z Kaňuchová, S Ioppolo +19
The astrochemistry of CO2 ice analogues has been a topic of intensive investigation due to the prevalence of CO2 throughout the interstellar medium and the Solar System, as well as…
Electron Irradiation and Thermal Chemistry Studies of Interstellar and Planetary Ice Analogues at the ICA Astrochemistry Facility
Duncan V. Mifsud, Zoltán Juhász, Péter Herczku +10
The modelling of molecular excitation and dissociation processes relevant to astrochemistry requires the validation of theories by comparison with data generated from laboratory ex…
The Ice Chamber for Astrophysics-Astrochemistry (ICA): A New Experimental Facility for Ion Impact Studies of Astrophysical Ice Analogues
Péter Herczku, Duncan V. Mifsud, Sergio Ioppolo +11
The Ice Chamber for Astrophysics-Astrochemistry (ICA) is a new laboratory end-station located at the Institute for Nuclear Research (Atomki) in Debrecen, Hungary. The ICA has been…
Sulfur Ice Astrochemistry: A Review of Laboratory Studies
Duncan V. Mifsud, Zuzana Kanuchova, Peter Herczku +6
Sulfur is the tenth most abundant element in the universe and is known to play a significant role in biological systems. Accordingly, in recent years there has been increased inter…
A Systematic Study on the Absorption Features of Interstellar Ices in Presence of Impurities
Prasanta Gorai, Milan Sil, Ankan Das +12
Spectroscopic studies play a key role in the identification and analysis of interstellar ices and their structure. Some molecules have been identified within the interstellar ices…
Thermal and energetic processing of astrophysical ice analogues rich in SO
Z. Kanuchova, Ph. Boduch, A. Domaracka +3
Sulfur is an abundant element in the cosmos and it is thus an important contributor to astrochemistry in the interstellar medium and in the Solar System. Astronomical observations…

Tadeusz Jan Jopek, Zuzana Kanuchova
Currently, the meteor shower part of Meteor Data Center database includes: 112 established showers, 563 in the working list, among them 36 have the pro tempore status. The list of…
A new study of an old sink of sulfur in hot molecular cores: the sulfur residue
Paul M. Woods, Angela Occhiogrosso, Serena Viti +3
Sulfur appears to be depleted by an order of magnitude or more from its elemental abundance in star-forming regions. In the last few years, numerous observations and experiments ha…
