Depositional ice nucleation on solid ammonium sulfate and glutaric acid particles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Heterogeneous ice nucleation on solid ammonium sulfate and glutaric acid particles was studied using optical microscopy and Raman spectroscopy. Optical microscopy was used to detect selective nucleation events as water vapor was slowly introduced into an

The State of CO and CO2 Ices in the Kuiper Belt as Seen by JWST

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal, 2023
JWST has shown that CO _2 and CO are common on the surfaces of objects in the Kuiper Belt and have apparent surface coverages even higher than that of water ice, though water ice is expected to be significantly more abundant in the bulk composition ...

CO$_2$ Infrared Phonon Modes in Interstellar Ice Mixtures

open access: yes, 2016
CO$_2$ ice is an important reservoir of carbon and oxygen in star and planet forming regions. Together with water and CO, CO$_2$ sets the physical and chemical characteristics of interstellar icy grain mantles, including desorption and diffusion energies

Dependence of the Ice Formation Activity of Dioxynaphthalenes, Fluoroglucin and Silver Iodide on the Structure of the Hydrate Shells of Their Crystals

open access: yesAdsorption Science & Technology, 1999
The 1 H NMR spectroscopy of frozen suspensions has been used to investigate the hydrate shells of Agl, fluoroglucin (FG) and dioxynaphthalenes (DON). It has been shown that the ice formation activity (IFA) of the above compounds may be correlated with ...

NMR characterizations of the ice binding surface of an antifreeze protein. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
Antifreeze protein (AFP) has a unique function of reducing solution freezing temperature to protect organisms from ice damage. However, its functional mechanism is not well understood.

Boron Nitride Nanomesh: A template for Nano-ice

open access: yes, 2009
Using variable temperature scanning tunneling microscopy and dI/dz barrier height spectroscopy, the structure of water on h-BN/Rh(111) nanomesh has been investigated. Below its desorption temperature, two distinct phases of water self-assemble within the

Near-infrared Spectroscopy for Remote Sensing of Porosity, Density, and Cubicity of Crystalline and Amorphous H2O Ices in Astrophysical Environments

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present laboratory spectra of pure amorphous and crystalline H _2 O ices in the near-infrared (NIR, 1–2.5 μ m/10,000–4000 cm ^−1 ) at 80–180 K.

Cold gas as an ice diagnostic toward low mass protostars

open access: yes, 2009
Up to 90% of the chemical reactions during star formation occurs on ice surfaces, probably including the formation of complex organics. Only the most abundant ice species are however observed directly by infrared spectroscopy.

Infrared Band Strengths of Dangling OH Features in Amorphous Water at 20 K

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Infrared (IR) spectra of vapor-deposited amorphous water at low temperatures show two weak peaks at around 3720 and 3696 cm ^−1 assigned to free-OH stretching modes of two- and three-coordinated water molecules (so-called “dangling” OH bonds ...

Characterization of individual ice residual particles by the single droplet freezing method: a case study in the Asian dust outflow region [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2018
In order to better characterize ice nucleating (IN) aerosol particles in the atmosphere, we investigated the chemical composition, mixing state, and morphology of atmospheric aerosols that nucleate ice under conditions relevant for mixed-phase clouds.
