The ALMA-PILS survey: First detections of ethylene oxide, acetone and propanal toward the low-mass protostar IRAS 16293-2422
J. M. Lykke, A. Coutens, J. K. Jørgensen +14
One of the open questions in astrochemistry is how complex organic and prebiotic molecules are formed. Aims. Our aim is to start the process of compiling an inventory of oxygen-bea…
CO Infrared Phonon Modes in Interstellar Ice Mixtures
Ilsa R. Cooke, Edith C. Fayolle, Karin I. Öberg
CO ice is an important reservoir of carbon and oxygen in star and planet forming regions. Together with water and CO, CO sets the physical and chemical characteristics of i…
Kinetics and mechanisms of the acid-base reaction between NH and HCOOH in interstellar ice analogs
Jennifer B. Bergner, Karin I. Oberg, Mahesh Rajappan +1
Interstellar complex organic molecules (COMs) are commonly observed during star formation, and are proposed to form through radical chemistry in icy grain mantles. Reactions betwee…
The ALMA Protostellar Interferometric Line Survey (PILS): First results from an unbiased submillimeter wavelength line survey of the Class 0 protostellar binary IRAS 16293-2422 with ALMA
J. K. Jørgensen, M. H. D. van der Wiel, A. Coutens +14
The inner regions of the envelopes surrounding young protostars are characterised by a complex chemistry, with prebiotic molecules present on the scales where protoplanetary disks…
The ALMA-PILS survey: First detections of deuterated formamide and deuterated isocyanic acid in the interstellar medium
A. Coutens, J. K. Jørgensen, M. H. D. van der Wiel +15
Formamide (NHCHO) has previously been detected in several star-forming regions and is thought to be a precursor for different prebiotic molecules. Its formation mechanism is st…
