AlF is a relevant molecule in astrochemistry as a tracer of F-bearing molecules. Additionally, AlF presents diagonal Franck-Condon factors and can be created very efficiently in the lab, which makes it a prototypical molecular for laser cooling. However,

Geochemistry of the cretaceous-tertiary transition boundary at Blake Nose (N. W. Atlantic): Cosmogenic Ni [PDF]
The Cretaceous-Tertiary (KT) boundary transition at the Blake Nose Plateau recovered by ODP Leg 171B (site 1049, hole A, core 17X, section 2) contains an ejecta bed (thickness ca. 17 cm) marking a late Cretaceous asteroid impact.

The astrochemistry of life [PDF]
There are many unanswered astronomical questions about the chemical basis of life; a meeting held in August this year by the Astrophysical Chemistry Group of the RAS and the Royal Society of Chemistry took as its starting point the understanding of a number of questions, and reviews of progress towards the answers, report Anita Richards and Peter Sarre.

Gas-phase Ortho-to-para Ratio of Formaldehyde Formed at Low Temperatures in Laboratory Ices
The ortho-to-para ratio (OPR) of formaldehyde (H _2 CO) has been used as a probe to estimate the formation temperature of molecules in interstellar, circumstellar, and cometary environments, relying on the assumption that nuclear spin conversion is ...

Infrared Spectra and Vapor Pressures of Crystalline C2N2, with Comparisons to Crystalline HCN
In a continuation of our work on nitriles, we have examined cyanogen (C _2 N _2 ) as a crystalline solid, comparing the results to our recent work on crystalline hydrogen cyanide (HCN).

Exploring outer space biophysical phenomena via SpaceLID
Extensive investigations in outer space have revealed not only how life adapts to the space environment, but also that interesting biophysical phenomena occur. These phenomena affect human health and other life forms (animals, plants, bacteria, and fungi)
