Aims: A unique environment to study how interstellar Complex Organic Molecules (iCOMs) can be formed is the shocked gas along low-mass protostellar outflows, as the dust mantles co…
Hot Corinos Chemical Diversity: Myth or Reality?
Marta De Simone, Cecilia Ceccarelli, Claudio Codella +14
After almost 20 years of hunting, only about a dozen hot corinos, hot regions enriched in interstellar complex organic molecules (iCOMs), are known. Of them, many are binary system…
Complex organic molecules in low-mass protostars on solar system scales -- I. Oxygen-bearing species
M. L. van Gelder, B. Tabone, Ł. Tychoniec +8
Complex organic molecules (COMs) are thought to form on icy dust grains in the earliest phase of star formation. The evolution of these COMs from the youngest Class 0/I protostella…
