Abundance Ratios of OH/CO and HCO+/CO as Probes of the Cosmic-Ray Ionization Rate in Diffuse Clouds
The cosmic-ray ionization rate (CRIR, ζ _2 ) is one of the key parameters controlling the formation and destruction of various molecules in molecular clouds. However, the current most commonly used CRIR tracers, such as ${{\rm{H}}}_{3}^{+}$ , OH ^+ , and

Astrochemistry: overview and challenges [PDF]
This paper provides a brief overview of the journey of molecules through the Cosmos, from local diffuse interstellar clouds and PDRs to distant galaxies, and from cold dark clouds to hot star-forming cores, protoplanetary disks, planetesimals and ...

Adsorption of Helium on Cationic or Anionic Tetracene and Pentacene
How does the arrangement of helium atoms that are adsorbed on tetracene or pentacene ions change with increasing coverage? When does the adsorption layer change from 1D to 2D, and to 3D? Is the transition abrupt? Are the helium atoms localized? Is the arrangement the same for cations and anions? What changes as the acene grows in length?

Mapping Galactic Dust Emission and Extinction with H I, H II, and H2
Neutral hydrogen (H i ) emission closely traces the dust column density at high Galactic latitudes and is thus a powerful tool for predicting dust extinction. However, the relation between H i column density N _HI and high-latitude dust emission observed

Surveys of the Milky Way and Magellanic System in the λ21-cm line of atomic hydrogen
In the next three years, surveys of the Northern and Southern skies using focal plane arrays on aperture synthesis radio telescopes will lead to a breakthrough in our knowledge of the warm and cool atomic phases of the interstellar medium and their ...

Sodium depletion within diffuse interstellar clouds
Having derived estimates of the densities and radiation fields within several interstellar clouds from the observed populations of the H$sub 2$ rotational levels, we can estimate the amount of sodium and calcium depletion within different clouds.

A Reanalysis of the Carbon Abundance in the Translucent Cloud toward HD 24534 [PDF]
We have reanalyzed the Goddard High Resolution Spectrograph data set presented by Snow et al. which contains the interstellar intersystem C II] 2325A line through the translucent cloud toward HD 24534 (X Persei). In contrast to the results of Snow et al.,

Kinetics and Thermodynamics of Tautomerization Reactions of 1,1‐ and 1,2‐Ethenediols
ABSTRACT Tautomerism is a common phenomenon amongst organic molecules with easily interconvertible isomers, which can impact drug action and toxicity. Here we are interested in the enols of carboxylic acids, which are known to be much less stable than their acid counterparts.
