Abstract:

Study’s Excerpt/Novelty This study provides a comprehensive computational analysis of the thermodynamic properties of isoelectronic diatomic interstellar molecular species containing oxygen and sulfur atoms, spanning a wide range of interstellar temperatures. By investigating entropy, free energy, heat capacity, and internal energy, the research reveals unique trends, such as the earlier responsiveness of sulfur-containing molecules to temperature changes and the significant impact of molecular size on thermodynamic properties. These insights into the isoelectronic effects and thermodynamic be

Abstract:

Substantial enrichment of deuterium, D, in certain components of chondritic meteorites is interpreted as a record of isotopic fractionation during ion-molecule reactions at the very low temperatures characteristic of dense interstellar clouds. Whether those meteorites still contain the actual molecules that were synthesised in the presolar interstellar medium, or whether the interstellar material was recycled into a later generation of molecules within the early solar system is not known.

Abstract:

Understanding the organic chemistry of molecular clouds, particularly the formation of biologically important molecules, is fundamental to the study of the processes which lead to the origin, evolution and distribution of life in the Galaxy. Determining the level of molecular complexity attainable in the clouds, and the nature of the complex organic material available to protostellar disks and the planetary systems that form from them, requires an understanding of the possible chemical pathways and is therefore a central question in astrochemistry. We have thus searched for prebiologically imp

Abstract:

AbstractWe present high-resolution and high signal-to-noise spectroscopic observations of interstellar molecular lines of C2 towards early-type stars. C2 is particularly interesting because it is the simplest multicarbon molecule and its abundances give information on the chemistry of interstellar clouds, especially on the pathway of formation of (hydro)carbon chains and PAHs which may be considered as possible carriers of diffuse interstellar bands (DIBs). Homonuclear diatomic molecules have negligible dipol moments and hence radiative cooling of excited rotational levels may go only trough t

Abstract:

Several new interstellar species have recently been detected in the molecular gas, including rotationally-excited CH, vibrationally-excited HCN, and a new molecular ion, HCNH+. These detections have raised some interesting questions concerning the relative importance of “shock” or “high temperature” chemistry vs. ion-molecule reactions in the synthesis of interstellar molecules in dense clouds.

Abstract:

The asymmetric rotor molecule methanol (CH3OH) has hundreds of transitions at centimeter-, millimeter-, and submillimeter wavelengths. Many of these are excited in the hot (T ≳ 150 K), dense (n ≳ 106 cm−3) molecular cloud cores surrounding newly formed massive stars or protostars. The high temperatures in these cores cause evaporation of icy grain mantles, releasing copious amounts of complex molecules, such as methanol, in the gas phase, which in hot cores has abundances (up to 10−6 relative to H2) that are two or more orders of magnitude higher than in cold dark clouds.

Abstract:

Molecules in the interstellar space are exposed to interstellar radiation, so that they are destroyed by photodissociation processes, leading to the production of smaller molecules and ions, which in turn can react with other molecular species. Therefore, dissociation rates and dissociation products are important for the chemistry of interstellar molecules. This holds true also for relatively opaque and dense clouds (τ ≲ 10 in the visual), due to the multiple scattering of UV radiation by dust.

Abstract:

Over 130 molecules have been identified in the interstellar gas and circumstellar shells, the largest among them is a carbon chain with 13 atoms and molecular weight of 147 (twice that of the simplest amino acid glycine). The high reliability of astronomical identifications, as well as the fairly accurate quantitative analysis which can often be achieved, is emphasized. Glycine itself has been claimed, but a recent analysis indicates that few, if any, of the astronomical radio lines attributed to glycine are actually from that molecule. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) have long been pr

In the interstellar medium, highly excited states of molecules can form a state of matter called Rydberg Matter. Mainly, they are formed by the promotion of an electron from the lower layers of the molecule to the highly excited ones. However, these can also be formed by temporarily capturing an electron in high energy orbitals following its collisions with cations. This paper focuses on the latter, the collisional approach, which is more suitable for explaining these highly excited states that can be found in this environment. It should be mentioned that in this environment cations are abunda
