FAUST XXXII. Chemically layered structures and ionisation in the disk and envelope of NGC 1333 IRAS 4C
Shota Notsu, Nami Sakai, Yichen Zhang +71
Recent molecular line observations with high spatial resolutions have revealed vertical chemical stratification in Class I/II disks (i.e. chemical composition changing with height…
Astrochemical Inheritance of Terrestrial Planets Water from Local Wet Silicates
Lise Boitard-Crépeau, Stefano Pantaleone, Cecilia Ceccarelli +3
The delivery of water to the inner Solar System rocky planets, including Earth, remains debated, as standard models assume that they formed from dry grains, inside the snowline of…
Carbon chain diversity in L1544 and IRAS 16293-2422: an astrochemical pathfinder study for the SKAO
Lisa Giani, Eleonora Bianchi, Anthony Remijan +12
Astrochemical observations have revealed a surprisingly high level of chemical complexity, including long carbon chains, in the earliest stages of Sun-like star formation. The orig…
The role of the pre-exponential factor on temperature programmed desorption spectra: A computational study of frozen species on interstellar icy grain mantles
S. Pantaleone, L. Tinacci, V. Bariosco +3
Temperature programmed desorption (TPD) is a well-known technique to study gas-surface processes, and it is characterized by two main quantities: the adsorbate binding energy and t…
Was Earth's water acquired locally during the earliest phases of the Solar System formation?
Lise Boitard-Crépeau, Cecilia Ceccarelli, Pierre Beck +2
The origin of the terrestrial water remains debated, as standard Solar System formation models suggest that Earth formed from dry grains, inside the snowline of the Proto-Solar Neb…
Gas-phase formation routes of dimethyl sulfide in the interstellar medium
Gabriella Di Genova, Nadia Balucani, Luca Mancini +3
Context: Dimethyl sulfide (DMS; CHSCH) is an organosulfur compound that has been suggested as a potential biosignature in exoplanetary atmospheres. In addition to its tenta…
A comprehensive study of the gas-phase formation network of HCN: theory, experiments, observations and models
Lisa Giani, Eleonora Bianchi, Martin Fournier +6
Cyanopolyynes are among the largest and most commonly observed interstellar Complex Organic Molecules in star-forming regions. They are believed to form primarily in the gas-phase,…
FAUST XIX. DCO in the outflow cavities of NGC\,1333 IRAS\,4A: recovering the physical structure of its original prestellar core
Layal Chahine, Cecilia Ceccarelli, Marta De Simone +25
Molecular deuteration is a powerful diagnostic tool for probing the physical conditions and chemical processes in astrophysical environments. In this work, we focus on formaldehyde…
FAUST XII. Accretion streamers and jets in the VLA 1623--2417 protocluster
C. Codella, L. Podio, M. De Simone +23
The ALMA interferometer has played a key role in revealing a new component of the Sun-like star forming process: the molecular streamers, i.e. structures up to thousands of au long…
Formation of interstellar complex organic molecules on water-rich ices triggered by atomic carbon freezing
Stefano Ferrero, Cecilia Ceccarelli, Piero Ugliengo +2
The reactivity of interstellar carbon atoms (C) on the water-dominated ices is one of the possible ways to form interstellar complex organic molecules (iCOMs). In this work, we rep…
Revised gas-phase formation network of methyl cyanide: the origin of methyl cyanide and methanol abundance correlation in hot corinos
Lisa Giani, Cecilia Ceccarelli, Luca Mancini +4
Methyl cyanide (CHCN) is one of the most abundant and widely spread interstellar complex organic molecules (iCOMs). Several studies found that, in hot corinos, methyl cyanide a…
Deuterium and N fractionation in NH during the formation of a Sun-like star
M. De Simone, F. Fontani, C. Codella +7
Although chemical models predict that the deuterium fractionation in NH is a good evolutionary tracer in the star formation process, the fractionation of nitrogen is still…
Seeds Of Life In Space (SOLIS): The organic composition diversity at 300--1000 au scale in Solar-type star forming regions
C. Ceccarelli, P. Caselli, F. Fontani +43
Complex organic molecules have been observed for decades in the interstellar medium. Some of them might be considered as small bricks of the macromolecules at the base of terrestri…
New quantum chemical computations of formamide deuteration support a gas-phase formation of this prebiotic molecule
D. Skouteris, F. Vazart, C. Ceccarelli +3
Based on recent work, formamide might be a potentially very important molecule in the emergence of terrestrial life. Although detected in the interstellar medium for decades, its f…
