Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.Two previously uncharacterized heterocyclic imines, 3‐iminooxetane and 3‐oxazoline, are generated simultaneously by irradiation of 3‐azidooxetane under matrix isolation conditions. The infrared spectra provide reference data for future gas‐phase studies and may facilitate their search in the interstellar medium.

The Astrophysical JournalThe abundance of elements in the interstellar medium is a key facet for many fields of astrophysical study. In the soft X-ray spectra, absorption by interstellar gas can result in deep absorption features that affect continuum measurements. In this paper,

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.Thin solid films of pure glycine or alanine (thicknesses ranging from 10 to 700 nm) were prepared on MgF2 windows using a vacuum sublimation/recondensation method. VUV‐UV spectroscopy of these films enabled us to characterize new absorption cross sections for glycine and alanine for VUV‐UV radiations between 120 and 300 nm.

The Astrophysical JournalThe physics of recombination lines in the He i singlet system is expected to be relatively simple, supported by accurate atomic models. We examine the intensities of He i singlets λ 3614, λ 3965, λ 5016, λ 6678, and λ 7281 and the triplet He i λ 5876

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We present a new model of interstellar dust in which large grains are a single composite material, “astrodust,” and nanoparticle-sized grains come in distinct varieties including polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). We argue that a single-composition

On Our Cosmic (In)significance
Ratio, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This article discusses three interpretations of cosmic significance, all of which reveal something important about the notion of significance. Along the way, it proposes a unified view of significance by combining elements of each of the views.

A Definitive Determination of the Interstellar Carbon Abundance toward ρ Ophiuchi A and B
The Astrophysical Journal LettersWe present the results of an effort to derive interstellar gas-phase C ii abundances along the lines of sight toward ρ Oph A and B. Our analysis is based on high-resolution near-ultraviolet and far-ultraviolet archival spectra acquired with the Space ...

International Journal of Chemical Kinetics, Volume 58, Issue 12, Page 1136-1145, December 2026.ABSTRACT We present chemical kinetic rate constants for the cis to trans isomerisation or rotamerization of monomeric seleno‐, thio‐, and formic acids and that of three of their dimeric species, based on variational transition state theory and multidimensional tunneling calculations in the gas‐phase, from 10 K to 300 K. These provide, firstly, reliable

The Astronomical JournalDeuterium fractionation, as studied through mono-deuterated methanol, is frequently used as a diagnostic tool to trace the physical conditions and chemical evolution of interstellar sources. This study investigates methanol deuteration in the disk around
