Evidence of a Cloud-Cloud Collision from Overshooting Gas in the Galactic Center

Savannah R. Gramze, Adam Ginsburg, David S. Meier +4

The Milky Way is a barred spiral galaxy with "bar lanes" that bring gas towards the Galactic Center. Gas flowing along these bar lanes often overshoots, and instead of accreting on…

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…
