Hyperfine resolved rate coefficients of HC17O+ with H2 (j = 0)
Francesca Tonolo, François Lique, Mattia Melosso +2
The formyl cation (HCO+) is one of the most abundant ions in molecular clouds and plays a major role in the interstellar chemistry. For this reason, accurate collisional rate coeff…
Molecular precursors of the RNA-world in space: new nitriles in the G+0.693-0.027 molecular cloud
Víctor M. Rivilla, Izaskun Jiménez-Serra, Jesus Martín-Pintado +10
Nitriles play a key role as molecular precursors in prebiotic experiments based on the RNA-world scenario for the origin of life. These chemical compounds could have been partially…
Precursors of the RNA-world in space: Detection of ()-1,2-ethenediol in the interstellar medium, a key intermediate in sugar formation
Víctor M. Rivilla, Laura Colzi, Izaskun Jiménez-Serra +20
We present the first detection of ()-1,2-ethenediol, (CHOH), the enol form of glycolaldehyde, in the interstellar medium towards the G+0.693-0.027 molecular cloud located in…
An improved study of HCO+ and He system: interaction potential, collisional relaxation and pressure broadening
F. Tonolo, L. Bizzocchi, M. Melosso +4
In light of its ubiquitous presence in the interstellar gas, the chemistry and reactivity of the HCO+ ion requires special attention. The availability of up-to-date collisional dat…
