Chlorine in dense interstellar clouds - The abundance of HCl in OMC-1 [PDF]

open access: yes, 1985
We report the first detection of a chlorine-bearing molecular species in the interstellar medium via emission from the J = 1 → 0 transition of HCl at 625.9 GHz toward OMC-1.

Clouds, Clumps, Cores & Comets - a Cosmic Chemical Connection?

open access: yes, 2008
We discuss the connection between the chemistry of dense interstellar clouds and those characteristics of cometary matter that could be remnants of it. The chemical evolution observed to occur in molecular clouds is summarized and a model for dense core ...

Proton and Electron Irradiations of CH4:H2O Mixed Ices

open access: yesAtoms, 2023
The organic chemistry occurring in interstellar environments may lead to the production of complex molecules that are relevant to the emergence of life. Therefore, in order to understand the origins of life itself, it is necessary to probe the chemistry ...

The Ionization Rate in Dense Interstellar Clouds [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1987
Measurements of the abundances of OH, HCO+ and DCO+ are employed to derive the ionization rate in molecular clouds.

Kinematics of H I Envelopes Associated with Molecular Clouds

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
We investigate the evolution of molecular clouds through the kinematics of their atomic hydrogen (H I ) envelopes, using ^12 CO and 21 cm emission to trace the molecular and atomic gas, respectively.

Sulfur chemistry in dense interstellar clouds

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1982
A model is presented for the gas phase chemistry of molecules containing sulfur in dense interstellar clouds. The sulfur chemistry is different from that used in previous models as a result of an extensive search of the recent literature and the availability of new laboratory data.

A High-mass, Young Star-forming Core Escaping from Its Parental Filament

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We studied the unique kinematic properties in massive filament G352.63-1.07 at 10 ^3 au spatial scale with the dense molecular tracers observed with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array.

Mind and Cosmos as Throughput Systems: A Convergence Through the Throughput Model

open access: yesSystems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper advances a conceptual and mathematical foundations approach by applying the throughput model (TPM) to cosmic phenomena, reframing the universe as an extended information processing system. TPM's four stages, Perception, Information, Judgement and Decision Choice, are reformulated in explicit information‐theoretic and dynamical ...

The H2 Glow of a Quiescent Molecular Cloud Observed with JWST

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
We report JWST MIRI/MRS observations of the H _2 S (1) 17.04 μ m transition in two regions in the boundary of the Taurus molecular cloud. The two regions, denoted “Edge” (near the relatively sharp boundary of the ^13 CO J  = 1 → 0 emission) and “Peak ...
