Methyl Isocyanate Formation from Oxygen Insertion in Methyl Cyanide Ices

Michelle R. Brann, Karin I. Öberg, Mahesh Rajappan

In cold molecular clouds, UV photolysis of icy grain mantles generates radicals that lead to new molecule formation. When radical diffusion is limited by low temperatures, oxygen a…

Ice origins of OCS and chemistry of CS2-bearing ice mantles

Rafael Martin-Domenech, Karin I. Öberg, Guillermo M. Muñoz Caro +3

Understanding the formation of carbonyl sulfide (OCS) in interstellar ices is key to constrain the sulfur chemistry in the interstellar medium (ISM), since it is the only ice S-bea…

Organic chemistry in the H2-bearing, CO-rich interstellar ice layer at temperatures relevant to dense cloud interiors

Rafael Martín-Doménech, Alexander DelFranco, Karin I. Öberg +1

Ice chemistry in the dense, cold interstellar medium (ISM) is probably responsible for the formation of interstellar complex organic molecules (COMs). Recent laboratory experiments…

Formation of c-C6H5CN ice using the SPACE TIGER experimental setup

Pavlo Maksyutenko, Rafael Martin-Domenech, Elettra Piacentino +2

Benzonitrile (c-C6H5CN) has been recently detected in cold and dense regions of the interstellar medium (ISM), where it has been used as a signpost of a rich aromatic organic chemi…

Exploring the chemistry induced by energetic processing of the H2-bearing, CO-rich apolar ice layer

Rafael Martin-Domenech, Pavlo Maksiutenko, Karin I. Oberg +1

Interstellar ice mantles on the surfaces of dust grains are thought to have a bi-layered structure, with a H2O-rich polar layer, covered by a CO-rich apolar layer that probably har…

CO and N desorption energies from water ice

Edith C. Fayolle, Jodi Balfe, Ryan Loomis +4

The relative desorption energies of CO and N are key to interpretations of observed interstellar CO and N abundance patterns, including the well-documented CO and NH$^+…

CO diffusion into amorphous H2O ices

Trish Lauck, Leendertjan Karssemeijer, Katherine Shulenberger +3

The mobility of atoms, molecules and radicals in icy grain mantles regulate ice restructuring, desorption, and chemistry in astrophysical environments. Interstellar ices are domina…
