Exploring the formation pathways of formamide near young O-type stars

Veronica Allen, Floris F. S. van der Tak, Ana López-Sepulcre +4

Context. As a building block for amino acids, formamide (NHCHO) is an important molecule in astrobiology and astrochemistry, but its formation path in the interstellar medium i…

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…

The first steps of Interstellar Phosphorus Chemistry

Johanna Chantzos, Victor M. Rivilla, Anton Vasyunin +4

Phosphorus-bearing species are an essential key to form life on Earth, however they have barely been detected in the interstellar medium. Since only PN and PO have been identified…

Spectral Line Identification and Modelling (SLIM) in the MAdrid Data CUBe Analysis (MADCUBA) package: An interactive software for data cube analysis

S. Martín, J. Martín-Pintado, C. Blanco-Sánchez +3

In this paper we present the detailed formalism at the core of the Spectral Line Identification and Modelling (SLIM) within the MAdrid Data CUBe Analysis (MADCUBA) package and thei…

Super Hot Cores in NGC 253: Witnessing the formation and early evolution of Super Star Clusters

Fernando Rico-Villas, Jesus Martin-Pintado, Eduardo Gonzalez-Alfonso +2

Using ( pc) ALMA images of vibrationally excited HCN emission (HCN) we reveal the presence of unresolved Super Hot Cores (SHCs) in the…

Origin of the PN molecule in star-forming regions: the enlarged sample

F. Fontani, V. M. Rivilla, F. F. S. van der Tak +3

Phosphorus nitride (PN) is the P-bearing species with the highest number of detections in star-forming regions. Multi-line studies of the molecule have shown that the excitation te…
