Interstellar absorption lines toward Cep OB4 [PDF]

Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2004
An analysis of optical echelle spectra towards nine stars in the Cep OB4 association is presented. Interstellar absorption lines which arise in the (1, 0) and (2,0) bands of the CN A 2 Π - X 2 Σ + red system towards BD+66° 1661, BD+66° 1674, and BD+66° 1675 are used to infer accurate CN column densities N(CN).

Tautomerization Kinetics of Thiouracils at Low Temperatures Driven Solely by Quantum‐Mechanical Tunnelling: Predictions of Suitable Candidates for Future Experiments

International Journal of Chemical Kinetics, Volume 58, Issue 6, Page 269-277, June 2026.
ABSTRACT In the past two decades numerous experiments have been conducted on the kinetics of reactions occurring at low temperatures on inert matrices. In particular, unimolecular proton‐transfer photo‐reactions of compounds containing a carbon–sulfur double bond, or thione group C═S, can lead to the formation of higher energy isomers or tautomers with

Al2O Photochemistry

The Astrophysical Journal
The chemistry within the interstellar medium (ISM) is notably influenced by the interplay between kinetics and photochemical processes, which play significant roles in both the formation and destruction of molecular species.

Shaken or Stirred: The Diffuse Interstellar Medium with Exceptionally High SiO Abundance

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Interstellar shocks, a key element of stellar feedback processes, shape the structure of the interstellar medium (ISM) and are essential for the chemistry, thermodynamics, and kinematics of interstellar gas.

X-Ray Absorption and Scattering by Interstellar Grains

, 2016
Interstellar abundance determinations from fits to X-ray absorption edges often rely on the incorrect assumption that scattering is insignificant and can be ignored.

δ Orionis: Further temporal variability and evidence for small-scale structure in the interstellar medium [PDF]

, 2001
We report here the detection of both spatial and temporal variations in interstellar absorption in the line of sight to δ Orionis. First, we present new high-resolution (R≈110 000) observations of the interstellar D lines of Na i towards both δ Ori A and

Interstellar absorption toward HD 14633

The Astrophysical Journal, 1983
Observations are reported of optical interstellar absorption lines of Ti II, Ca II, and Na I in the spectrum of HD 14633, a probable runaway O star ejected from the Perseus spiral arm. Unusually high gas-phase abundances of the normally depleted elements Ca and Ti are found in three high-velocity interstellar line components; the light paths to only a ...

Modeling the Detectability of Energetic Heliospheric Ions at Pluto During the New Horizons Flyby

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract We investigate the detectability of heliospheric helium ions at energies up to 100 keV by the New Horizons (NH) spacecraft during its flyby through Pluto's induced magnetosphere. The Pluto Energetic Particle Spectrometer Science Investigation energetic ion detector observed a reduction in their flux by an order of magnitude as the spacecraft ...

A Nest of Diffuse Interstellar Bands—Likely of Common Origin

The Astronomical Journal
Diffuse interstellar bands (DIBs) have been proposed to cluster into distinct “families” each potentially linked to a single carrier molecule. In our study, we focus on identifying such a family within the spectral range of approximately 4945–4990 Å ...

Spectroscopic Investigation of Thioacrolein by Variational and Perturbational Approaches

Journal of Computational Chemistry, Volume 47, Issue 10, 15 April 2026.
The vibrational and rotational spectra of trans and cis‐thioacrolein were studied by high levels of electronic and vibrational structure theory. Comparisons with experimental results are provided for several molecular quantities. ABSTRACT The vibrational spectra of trans and cis‐thioacrolein have been studied by 2nd order vibrational perturbation ...
