CHemical Evolution in MassIve star-forming COres (CHEMICO). II. Molecular ions, electron fraction, and cosmic-ray ionisation rate
F. Fontani, E. Roueff, V. M. Rivilla +5
Molecular ions are crucial in initiating and regulating the formation of molecules in the interstellar medium, and are expected to be sensitive tracers of evolution in star-forming…
Physical conditions in PDRs revealed by IGRINS ro-vibrational H2 observations
Aurélien Piluso, Vincent Maillard, Raphael Meshaka +10
We compare H2 high ro-vibrational observations of 5 PDRs (S140, IC63, Horsehead Nebula, NGC 2023 and Orion Bar) obtained with the IGRINS spectrograph to PDR models produced with th…
Gas phase Elemental abundances in Molecular cloudS (GEMS) XII. First look into the para-to-ortho ratio of c-C3D2 towards prestellar cores
J. Ferrer Asensio, A. Fuente, E. Roueff +3
Symmetric molecules with identical nuclei form distinct nuclear spin isomers (ortho and para) that cannot interconvert via radiative or inelastic transitions, preserving clues abou…
Chemical diversity of dense cores in Orion B: The role of the environment
Helena J. Mazurek, Maryvonne Gerin, Pierre Gratier +26
Prestellar cores are the sites of the earliest stages of star formation. Dust continuum observations are often used to identify and characterize their properties yet only a small f…
Spatial distribution of organics in the Horsehead nebula: Signposts of chemistry driven by atomic carbon
Claudio Hernández-Vera, Viviana V. Guzmán, Jérôme Pety +10
(Abridged) Complex organic molecules (COMs) are considered essential precursors to prebiotic species. While COMs were once expected to be efficiently destroyed under UV-irradiated…
PDRs4All XVII: Formation and excitation of HD in photodissociation regions. Application to the Orion Bar
Marion Zannese, Jacques Le Bourlot, Evelyne Roueff +12
The James Webb Space Telescope enabled the first detection of several rovibrational emission lines of HD in the Orion Bar, a prototypical photodissociation region. This provides an…
