New measurement of the diffusion of carbon dioxide on non-porous amorphous solid water

Jiao He, Paula Caroline Pérez Rickert, Tushar Suhasaria +5

The diffusion of molecules on interstellar grain surfaces is one of the most important driving forces for the molecular complexity in the interstellar medium. Due to the lack of la…

Ammonia, carbon dioxide and the non-detection of the 2152 cm CO band

Jiao He, Giulia Perotti, Shahnewaz M. Emtiaz +4

CO is one of the most abundant ice components on interstellar dust grains. When it is mixed with amorphous solid water (ASW) or located on its surface, an absorption band of CO at…

Refractive index and extinction coefficient of vapor-deposited water ice in the UV-Vis range

Jiao He, Sharon J. M. Diamant, Siyu Wang +4

Laboratory results of the optical properties of vapor-deposited water ice, specifically the refractive index and extinction coefficient, are available mainly for a selective set of…

The Effective Surface Area of Amorphous Solid Water Measured by the Infrared Absorption of Carbon Monoxide

Jiao He, Aspen R. Clements, SM Emtiaz +3

The need to characterize ices coating dust grains in dense interstellar clouds arises from the importance of ice morphology in facilitating the diffusion and storage of radicals an…

The CO and CO Absorption Bands as Tracers of the Thermal History of Interstellar Icy Grain Mantles

Jiao He, SM Emtiaz, Adwin Boogert +1

Analyses of infrared signatures of CO in water dominated ices in the ISM can give information on the physical state of CO in icy grains and on the thermal history of the ic…

Measurements of diffusion of volatiles in amorphous solid water: application to interstellar medium environments

Jiao He, SM Emtiaz, Gianfranco Vidali

The diffusion of atoms and molecules in ices covering dust grains in dense clouds in interstellar space is an important but poorly characterized step in the formation of complex mo…

Mechanism of Atomic Hydrogen Addition Reactions on np-ASW

Jiao He, Shahnewaj M. Emtiaz, Gianfranco Vidali

Hydrogen, being the most abundant element, is the driver of many if not most reactions occurring on interstellar dust grains. In hydrogen atom addition reactions, the rate is usual…

Characterization of thin film CO ice through the infrared combination mode

Jiao He, Gianfranco Vidali

Carbon dioxide is abundant in ice mantles of dust grains; some is found in the pure crystalline form as inferred from the double peak splitting of the bending profile at about 650…

Binding Energy of Molecules on Water Ice: Laboratory Measurements and Modeling

Jiao He, Kinsuk Acharyya, Gianfranco Vidali

We measured the binding energy of N, CO, O, CH, and CO on non-porous (compact) amorphous solid water (np-ASW), of N and CO on porous amorphous solid water (p-AS…

Sticking of molecules on non-porous amorphous water ice

Jiao He, Kinsuk Acharyya, Gianfranco Vidali

Accurate modeling of physical and chemical processes in the interstellar medium requires detailed knowledge of how atoms and molecule adsorb on dust grains. However, the sticking c…

Formation of hydroxylamine on dust grains via ammonia oxidation

Jiao He, Gianfranco Vidali, Jean-Louis Lemaire +1

The quest to detect prebiotic molecules in space, notably amino acids, requires an understanding of the chemistry involving nitrogen atoms. Hydroxylamine (NHOH) is considered a…
