Ionization-Driven Dehydrogenation and Molecular Growth in Gas-Phase Adamantane Clusters

Sumit Srivastav, Per Eng-Johnsson, Raimund Feifel +4

We investigate fragmentation and molecular growth induced by keV ions in initially neutral gas-phase adamantane clusters, the simplest diamondoid molecule (Ad, CH). U…

Isomer effects on neutral-loss dissociation channels of nitrogen-substituted PAH dications

Sumit Srivastav, Sylvain Maclot, Alicja Domaracka +2

We investigate two nitrogen-containing isomers of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), quinoline (Q) and isoquinoline (IQ), of composition CHN in collisions with 7~keV…

Cosmic-ray induced sputtering of interstellar formaldehyde ices

M. Faure, A. Bacmann, A. Faure +4

H2CO is a ubiquitous molecule in the ISM and in the gas phase of prestellar cores, and is likely present in ice mantles, but its main desorption mechanism is unknown. In this paper…

Bond breaking and making in mixed clusters of fullerene and coronene molecules following keV-ion impact

Naemi Florin, Alicja Domaracka, Patrick Rousseau +2

We have performed classical molecular dynamics simulations of 3 keV Ar + collisions where and…

Non-thermal desorption of complex organic molecules: Cosmic-ray sputtering of CH3OH embedded in CO2 ice

E. Dartois, M. Chabot, A. Bacmann +3

Methanol ice is embedded in interstellar ice mantles present in dense molecular clouds. We aim to measure the sputtering efficiencies starting from different ice mantles of varying…

Cosmic ray sputtering yield of interstellar H2O ice mantles : Ice mantle thickness dependence

E. Dartois, M. Chabot, T. Id Barkach +5

Interstellar grain mantles present in dense interstellar clouds are in constant exchange with the gas phase via accretion and desorption mechanisms such as UV, X-ray photodesorptio…
