Survey of Very Broad Diffuse Interstellar Bands [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2020
Abstract This paper considers a very special set of a few interstellar features—broad diffuse interstellar bands (DIBs) at 4430, 4882, 5450, 5779, and 6175 ÅÅ. The set is small, and measurements of equivalent widths of these DIBs are challenging because of severe stellar, interstellar, and sometimes, also telluric contaminations inside ...

Evidence for the naphthalene cation in a region of the interstellar medium with anomalous microwave emission [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We report high resolution spectroscopy of the moderately reddened (A$_V$=3) early type star Cernis 52 located in a region of the Perseus molecular cloud complex with anomalous microwave emission.

Electronic Spectroscopy of Cold Gas-Phase Ions in a Cryogenic Ion Trap: Vibronic States, Bonding Characteristics, and Photochemistry. [PDF]

open access: yesChem Asian J
Recent development of cryogenic ion‐trap‐based instrumentation has extended the scope of gas‐phase laser spectroscopy to a wide variety of nonvolatile ions, including carbocations and protonated hydrocarbons, organic dyes, host‐guest complexes, micro‐hydrated ions, hypervalent ions, metal clusters, and ionic intermediates formed in solution.

Polyacenes and diffuse interstellar bands [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2019
The identification of the carriers of the diffuse interstellar bands (DIBs) remains to be established, with the exception of five bands attributed to C60+, although it is generally agreed that DIB carriers should be large carbon-based molecules (with ~10–100 atoms) in the gas phase, such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), long carbon chains or

Electronically Excited States of Closed-Shell, Cyano-Functionalized Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon Anions

open access: yesChemistry, 2021
Few anions exhibit electronically excited states, and, if they do, the one or two possible excitations typically transpire beyond the visible spectrum into the near-infrared.

Diffuse Interstellar Bands in Emission [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of SALT Science Conference 2015 — PoS(SSC2015), 2015
AbstractRecent Fabry-Pérot observations towards the galaxy NGC 1325 with the Southern African Large Telescope (SALT) led to the serendipitous discovery of an emission feature centered at 661.3 nm arising from material in the interstellar medium (ISM) of our Galaxy; this emission feature lies at the wavelength of one of the sharper and stronger diffuse ...

Fullerenes, PAHs, Amino Acids and High Energy Astrophysics

open access: yesActa Polytechnica CTU Proceedings, 2014
We present theoretical, observational and laboratory work on the spectral properties of fullerenes and hydrogenated fullerenes. Fullerenes in its various forms (individual, endohedral, hydrogenated, etc.) can contribute to the UV bump in the extinction ...

Joint Modelling of Dust Scattering and Thermal Emission: The Spider Complex

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Observations across the electromagnetic spectrum of radiative processes involving interstellar dust—emission, absorption, and scattering—are used to constrain the parameters of dust models and more directly to aid in foreground removal of dust for ...

SpeX Near-infrared Spectroscopic Extinction Curves in the Milky Way

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2022
Interstellar dust extinction curves provide valuable information about dust properties, including the composition and size of the dust grains, and are essential to correct observations for the effects of interstellar dust.
