The Significant Role of Hydrogen in the Formation of Silicon Carbide in Evolved Stars
Guillermo Tajuelo-Castilla, Gonzalo Santoro, Lidia Martínez +13
Cosmic dust is mainly formed in the atmospheres of evolved stars. In carbon rich stars, amorphous carbon along with silicon carbide are the main constituents of dust grains yet the…
Silicon and hydrogen chemistry under laboratory conditions mimicking the atmosphere of evolved stars
Mario Accolla, Gonzalo Santoro, Pablo Merino +10
Silicon is present in interstellar dust grains, meteorites and asteroids, and to date thirteen silicon-bearing molecules have been detected in the gas-phase towards late-type stars…
The chemistry of cosmic dust analogues from C, C, and CH in C-rich circumstellar envelopes
Gonzalo Santoro, Lidia Martínez, Koen Lauwaet +13
Interstellar carbonaceous dust is mainly formed in the innermost regions of circumstellar envelopes around carbon-rich asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars. In these highly chemical…
Improved determination of the 1(0)-0(0) rotational frequency of NH3D+ from the high resolution spectrum of the v4 infrared band
J. L. Doménech, M. Cueto, V. J. Herrero +4
The high resolution spectrum of the v4 band of NH3D+ has been measured by difference frequency IR laser spectroscopy in a multipass hollow cathode discharge cell. From the set of m…
Detection of the Ammonium Ion in Space
J. Cernicharo, B. Tercero, A. Fuente +9
We report on the detection of a narrow feature at 262816.73 MHz towards Orion and the cold prestellar core B1-bS, that we attribute to the 1(0)-0(0) line of the deuterated Ammonium…
