JWST OPENS A NEW ERA IN ASTROCHEMISTRY [PDF]
Historical sketch: Charlie Townes and I are the only two astronomical spectroscopists who switched to infrared after a few years of radio astronomy. Townes did atomic spectroscopy and discovered the black hole at the center of the Galaxy.ᵃ I switched ...

Thermal desorption of water ice in the interstellar medium
Water (H2O) ice is an important solid constituent of many astrophysical environments. To comprehend the role of such ices in the chemistry and evolution of dense molecular clouds and comets, it is necessary to understand the freeze-out, potential surface

ABSTRACT In the interstellar medium, chemical reactions proceed under conditions vastly different to those on Earth; these include extremely low temperatures and densities and take place in the gas phase and on water–ice grains. Understanding the energetics and more importantly the kinetics of such reactions is of relevance to the consequences on how ...

Hydrogen Atom Transfer: An Intramolecular Main‐Group Metal‐Ligand Cooperative Biradical Pathway
The molecular system consisting of a main‐group metal and a redox‐active ligand, ((2,6‐iPr2C6H3)NC(Me))2AlCl(THF), has been shown to react with azides and diazomethanes, yielding products through both a biradical intermediate and a hydrogen atom transfer process.

Cretaceous-Tertiary boundary deposits in Denmark: A diachroneity [PDF]
The lateral distribution of predominantly terrestrial kerogen or humics enriched with copper(II) porphyrins (Cu-P) across the Danish marine basin implies that the alleged Cretaceous-Tertiary (KT) boundary deposits in western Denmark (at the Nye Kløv ...
