NaH and LiH in diffuse interstellar clouds

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1978
It has been suggested that NaH may be detectable in diffuse interstellar clouds. We discuss the photodissociation process of NaH and calculate the rate of destruction by the interstellar radiation field. In the unshielded field, the mean lifetime is about 10 years. There appears to be no efficient gas-phase mechanism for the production of NaH. If it is

On the Stability of Interstellar Neutral Hydrogen Clouds at Large Z-heights

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Galactic neutral hydrogen (H i ) data drawn from several large-scale surveys have been used to study 32 small clouds found between Galactic longitudes 70° and 140° and latitudes −20° and −45°.

The formation of molecular hydrogen in the interstellar medium [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
H2 is the most abundant molecule in the interstellar medium and forms on the surface of interstellar dust grains. Laboratory studies have been conducted of HD formation on a dust grain analogue, which is a highly-oriented pyrolytic graphite surface ...

Molecular filming: A director's grammar for visualizing chemistry in motion

open access: yesBulletin of the Korean Chemical Society, Volume 47, Issue 9, Page 1042-1057, September 2026.
Molecular filming names the practice, not just the product, of ultrafast structural science. In deliberate analogy to molecular editing, which rewrites connectivity in space, molecular filming records geometry in time, assembling time‐ordered structural frames into a movie of atomic motion and recasting the field as a grammar of directorial choices ...

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 ...

An Instrument for Isomer‐Specific Action Spectroscopy of Charged Clusters: Electronic Spectra of C 14 + and Ca@C 60 +

open access: yesChemistry–Methods, Volume 6, Issue 8, August 2026.
Disentangling spectral congestion of a mixture of isomers in gas‐phase spectroscopy is critical. We present an instrument combining ion mobility, mass spectrometry, and spectroscopy in a cryogenic 3D Paul trap to investigate the isomer‐specific charged clusters and illustrate its performance with the electronic spectra of C14+ and Ca@C60+. Interpreting

Evidence for Spatially Distinct Galactic Dust Populations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present an implementation of a Bayesian mixture model using Hamiltonian Monte Carlo techniques to search for the spatial separation of Galactic dust populations. Utilizing intensity measurements from the Planck High Frequency Instrument, we apply this

Evaluating maturity of organic matter in hydrated C1 and CM‐like clasts and a dehydrated clast within a polymict eucrite and a howardite

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 8, Page 1965-1993, August 2026.
Abstract Volatile‐rich xenolithic clasts in different types of brecciated meteorites represent unique pristine solar system material. This study investigates the maturity and thermal history of organic matter using Raman spectroscopy and aqueous alteration effects using infrared spectroscopy in the matrix of 15 volatile‐rich clasts (C1 and CM‐like ...

Investigation into Triggered Star Formation by Radiative Driven Implosion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
When massive stars form, they emit strong, hydrogen ionising radiation fields into their molecular cloud environment, forming HII regions. This is believed to be capable of inducing effects which can trigger further star formation through a process known
