Protonated hydrogen cyanide as a tracer of pristine molecular gas

Y. Gong, F. J. Du, C. Henkel +11

Protonated hydrogen cyanide, HCNH, plays a fundamental role in astrochemistry because it is an intermediary in gas-phase ion-neutral reactions within cold molecular clouds. H…

Deuterated molecules in regions of high-mass star formation

Igor I. Zinchenko, Andrey G. Pazukhin, Elena A. Trofimova +3

We present the results of our studies of deuterated molecules (DCN, DNC, DCO, ND and NHD) in regions of high-mass star formation, which include a survey of such reg…

Interstellar Nitrogen Isotope Ratios: New NH3 Data from the Galactic Center out to the Perseus Arm

J. L. Chen, J. S. Zhang, C. Henkel +10

Our aim is to measure the interstellar 14N/15N ratio across the Galaxy, to establish a standard data set on interstellar ammonia isotope ratios, and to provide new constraints on t…

Energizing Star Formation: The Cosmic Ray Ionization Rate in NGC 253 Derived From ALCHEMI Measurements of HO and SO

Jonathan Holdship, Jeffrey G. Mangum, Serena Viti +16

The cosmic ray ionization rate (CRIR) is a key parameter in understanding the physical and chemical processes in the interstellar medium. Cosmic rays are a significant source of en…
