Cis–Trans Rotational Isomerism of Formic Acid, Sulfur, and Selenium Analogues and Their Dimers: Chemical Kinetics Under Interstellar Conditions

open access: yesInternational Journal of Chemical Kinetics, EarlyView.
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 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 ...

The futuristic manifolds of REM sleep

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, Volume 34, Issue 2, April 2025.
Summary Since one of its first descriptions 70 years ago, rapid eye movement sleep has continually inspired and excited new generations of sleep researchers. Despite significant advancements in understanding its neurocircuitry, underlying mechanisms and microstates, many questions regarding its function, especially beyond the early neurodevelopment ...

Survey of CH3NH2 and its Formation Process

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present the observational results of a precursor of glycine, methylamine (CH _3 NH _2 ), together with methanol (CH _3 OH) and methanimine (CH _2 NH) for the high-mass star-forming regions NGC 6334I, G10.47+0.03, G31.41+0.3, and W51 e1/e2 using the ...

VUV and mid‐UV photoabsorption cross sections of thin films of glycine and alanine: Application to their photochemistry in the solar system

open access: yesPhotochemistry 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 SPHEREx Target List of Ice Sources (SPLICES)

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
One of the primary objectives of the SPHEREx mission is to understand the origin of molecules such as H _2 O, CO _2 , and other volatile compounds at the early stages of planetary system formation.

Interstellar molecules: guides for new chemistry

open access: yes, 2010
Interstellar space is among the most remarkable chemical laboratories in the universe. The existence of many unstable species with low-valent main group elements in the interstellar medium inspired us to investigate the feasibility of laboratory ...

Deep Search for Phosphine in a Prestellar Core

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
Understanding in which chemical forms phosphorus exists in star- and planet-forming regions and how phosphorus is delivered to planets are of great interest from the viewpoint of the origin of life on Earth.
