Lyα Processing of Solid-state Ethanolamine: Potential Precursors to Sugar and Peptide Derivatives

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Ethanolamine (EA), a key component of phospholipids, has recently been detected in the interstellar medium within molecular clouds. To understand this observation, laboratory studies of its formation and destruction are essential and should be ...

The chemistry of dense interstellar clouds

open access: yes, 1991
The basic theme of this program is the study of molecular complexity and evolution in interstellar and circumstellar clouds incorporating the biogenic elements.

Fractional abundances of molecules in dense interstellar clouds: A compendium of recent model results

open access: yes, 2017
In this paper we present calculated fractional abundances in dense interstellar clouds for selected atomic and molecular species using three different homogeneous, pseudo-time-dependent models discussed by Bettens, Lee, & Herbst (1995): the new ...

Binding Energies and Vibrational Spectral Features of S n Species on Amorphous Water-ice Mantles: A Quantum Mechanical Study

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
In the denser and colder regions of the interstellar medium (ISM), gas-phase sulfur is depleted by 2 or 3 orders of magnitude with respect to its cosmic abundance. Thus, which species are the main carriers of sulfur is an open question.

Geomagnetism, volcanoes, global climate change, and predictability. A progress report

open access: yesAnnals of Geophysics, 1994
A model is investigated, by which the encounters of the solar system with dense interstellar clouds ought to trigger either geomagnetic field reversals or excursions, that produce extra electric currents within the Earth dynamo, that cause extra Joule's ...

Desorption of large molecules from grains in dense interstellar clouds

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1991
Laboratory data on the nondestructive desorption of whole leucine (131 amu) molecules from surfaces induced by fast, heavy-ion bombardment are used to propose that heavy ions in the cosmic-ray flux may induce desorption of large molecules from the surfaces of grains in molecular, interstellar ...

Multi-Wavelength View of Supernova Remnants

open access: yesActa Polytechnica CTU Proceedings, 2014
This contribution gives a very short overview on the emission of supernova remnants and the processes that are responsible for both the thermal and non-thermal origins of the emission, typically observed in radio, X-rays, and up to gamma-rays. We discuss

A reanalysis of the HCO(+)/HOC(+) abundance ratio in dense interstellar clouds

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1986
New theoretical and experimental results have prompted a reinvestigation of the HCO+/HOC+ abundance ratio in dense interstellar clouds. These results pertain principally but not exclusively to the reaction between HOC+ and H2, which was previously calculated by DeFrees, McLean, and Herbst to possess a large activation energy barrier. New calculations,

Dark ice chemistry in interstellar clouds

open access: yes, 2020
This thesis is largely an experimental study on the formation of solid-state simple and complex organic molecules in the H2O-rich and CO-rich ice phases of dense interstellar clouds and dark cores. Astronomical ice observations are also presented and are
