Gliding on ice in search of accurate and cost-effective computational methods for astrochemistry on grains: the puzzling case of the HCN isomerization [PDF]

open access: greenJournal of Chemical Theory and Computation, 2022
The isomerization of hydrogen cyanide to hydrogen isocyanide on icy grain surfaces is investigated by an accurate composite method (jun-Cheap) rooted in the coupled cluster ansatz and by density functional approaches.

Cluster Beam Study of (MgSiO3)+-Based Monomeric Silicate Species and Their Interaction with Oxygen: Implications for Interstellar Astrochemistry

open access: hybridACS Earth and Space Chemistry, 2022
Silicates are ubiquitously found as small dust grains throughout the universe. These particles are frequently subject to high-energy processes and subsequent condensation in the interstellar medium (ISM), where they are broken up into many ultrasmall ...

Gas-phase Chemistry in the Interstellar Medium: The Role of Laboratory Astrochemistry

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2022
“Who” and how? In this simple question the complexity of the interstellar chemistry is encapsulated. “Who” refers to what molecules are present in the interstellar medium (ISM) and “how” to the mechanisms that led to their formation.

Astrochemistry of Sub-Millimeter Sources in Orion: Studying the Variations of Molecular Tracers with Changing Physical Conditions [PDF]

open access: bronze, 2003
Cornerstone molecules (CO, H_2CO, CH_3OH, HCN, HNC, CN, CS, SO) were observed toward seven sub-millimeter bright sources in the Orion molecular cloud in order to quantify the range of conditions for which individual molecular line tracers provide ...

Grain Surface Models and Data for Astrochemistry [PDF]

open access: yesSpace Science Reviews, 2017
The cross-disciplinary field of astrochemistry exists to understand the formation, destruction, and survival of molecules in astrophysical environments. Molecules in space are synthesized via a large variety of gas-phase reactions, and reactions on dust ...

Metal-ion mediated photolytic regulation of diphenylalanine stability: Implications for prebiotic chemical evolution [PDF]

open access: yesiScience
Summary: Early Earth’s UV-rich environment, together with abundant transition metals, likely shaped the stability of biomolecules. We investigated how cations influence the UV (254 nm) stability of diphenylalanine (FF).

Is Phenylnitrene a Missing Link in the Formation of Polycyclic Aromatic Nitrogen Heterocycles? [PDF]

open access: yesAngew Chem Int Ed Engl
A new formation pathway for polycyclic aromatic nitrogen heterocycles (PANHs) has been found. The reaction of phenylnitrene and the propargyl radical leads to quinoline, proving that nitrenes are suitable precursors for nitrogen incorporation mechanisms.
