The evolution of star-forming regions and their thermal balance are strongly influenced by
their chemical composition, which, in turn, is determined by the physicochemical processes …

Among all the interstellar complex organic molecules, acetaldehyde is one of the most
widely detected species. The question of its formation route (s) is, therefore, of a major …

The origin of complex organic molecules (COMs) in young Class 0 protostars has been one
of the major questions in astrochemistry and star formation. While COMs are thought to form …

To date, about two dozen low-mass embedded protostars exhibit rich spectra with lines of
complex organic molecules (COMs). These protostars seem to possess a different …

Context. The physical and chemical conditions in Class 0/I protostars are fundamental in
unlocking the protostellar accretion process and its impact on planet formation. Aims. The …

Ice mantles play a crucial role in shaping the astrochemical inventory of molecules during
star and planet formation. Small-scale molecular processes have a profound impact on large …

The chemical composition of gas and ice in disks around young stars sets the bulk
composition of planets. In contrast to protoplanetary disks (Class II), young disks that are still …

The complex organic molecules (COMs) detected in star-forming regions are the precursors
of the prebiotic molecules that can lead to the emergence of life. By studying COMs in more …

Context. Complex organic molecules (COMs) are ubiquitously detected in the gas phase
and thought to be mostly formed on icy grains. Nevertheless, there have not been any …

Context. High-quality vibrational spectra of solid-phase molecules in ice mixtures and for
temperatures of astrophysical relevance are needed to interpret infrared observations …
