A theoretical investigation of the reaction between the amidogen, NH, and the ethyl, C2H5, radicals: a possible gas-phase formation route of interstellar and planetary ethanimine
Nadia Balucani, Dimitrios Skouteris, Cecilia Ceccarelli +3
The reaction between the amidogen, NH, radical and the ethyl, C2H5, radical has been investigated by performing electronic structure calculations of the underlying doublet potentia…
Interstellar dimethyl ether gas-phase formation: a quantum chemistry and kinetics study
Dimitrios Skouteris, Nadia Balucani, Cecilia Ceccarelli +4
Dimethyl ether is one of the most abundant interstellar complex organic molecules. Yet its formation route remains elusive. In this work, we have performed electronic structure and…
Can Formamide Be Formed on Interstellar Ice? An Atomistic Perspective
Albert Rimola, Dimitrios Skouteris, Nadia Balucani +4
Interstellar formamide (NH2CHO) has recently attracted significant attention due to its potential role as a molecular building block in the formation of precursor biomolecules rele…
SOLIS IV. Hydrocarbons in the OMC-2 FIR 4 region, a probe of energetic particle irradiation of the region
C. Favre, C. Ceccarelli, A. López-Sepulcre +16
We report new interferometric images of cyclopropenylidene, c-CH, towards the young protocluster OMC-2 FIR\,4. The observations were performed at 82 and 85 GHz with the NOr…
The evolution of grain mantles and silicate dust growth at high redshift
Cecilia Ceccarelli, Serena Viti, Nadia Balucani +1
In dense molecular clouds, interstellar grains are covered by mantles of iced molecules. The formation of the grain mantles has two important consequences: it removes species from…
Seeds of Life in Space (SOLIS). III. Zooming into the methanol peak of the pre-stellar core L1544
Anna Punanova, Paola Caselli, Siyi Feng +41
Towards the pre-stellar core L1544, the methanol (CHOH) emission forms an asymmetric ring around the core centre, where CHOH is mostly in solid form, with a clear peak 4000…
