Aims. Photodissociation by UV light is an important destruction mechanism for carbon monoxide (CO) in many astrophysical environments, ranging from interstellar clouds to …
J Montillaud, C Joblin, D Toublanc - Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2013 - aanda.org
Context. Various studies have emphasised variations in the charge state and composition of the interstellar polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) population in photodissociation …
H Andrews, A Candian, A Tielens - Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2016 - aanda.org
Context. We have modelled the abundance distribution and IR emission of the first 3 members of the coronene family in the north-west photodissociation region of the well …
Aims. The chemistry of, and infrared (IR) emission from, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in disks around Herbig Ae/Be and T Tauri stars are investigated. PAHs can exist in …
V Le Page, TP Snow, VM Bierbaum - The Astrophysical Journal, 2009 - iopscience.iop.org
We present an alternate model for the formation of molecular hydrogen in the interstellar medium (ISM) where polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) cations may play a key role as …
S Schlemmer, W Geppert, A Wolf… - Laboratory …, 2014 - Wiley Online Library
Atoms and molecules make up a large fraction of the interstellar medium (ISM) and other astrophysical environments. Understanding how they are formed, destroyed, and altered via …
The chemical reactivity of atomic boron, B (2Pj), with inorganic and organic molecules is a fascinating subject of research from the experimental1-35 and theoretical viewpoints. 29, 30 …
The Cassini mission has investigated Titan's upper atmosphere in detail and found that, under solar irradiation, it has a well-developed ionosphere, which peaks between 1000 and …
