The Molecular Cloud Lifecycle. [PDF]
Space Sci Rev, 2020 AbstractGiant molecular clouds (GMCs) and their stellar offspring are the building blocks of galaxies. The physical characteristics of GMCs and their evolution are tightly connected to galaxy evolution. The macroscopic properties of the interstellar medium propagate into the properties of GMCs condensing out of it, with correlations between e.g.

Ice-nucleating particles in northern Greenland: annual cycles, biological contribution and parameterizations [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2023 Ice-nucleating particles (INPs) can initiate ice formation in clouds at temperatures above −38 ∘C through heterogeneous ice nucleation. As a result, INPs affect cloud microphysical and radiative properties, cloud lifetime, and precipitation behavior and

Nebula-Relay Hypothesis: The Chirality of Biological Molecules in Molecular Clouds
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2022 The chiral puzzle of biological molecules is thought to be closely related to the origin of life and is still a mystery so far. Previously, we proposed a new model on the origin of life, Nebula-Relay hypothesis, which assumed that the life on Earth ...

Anatomy of Orion Molecular Clouds—The Astrochemistry Perspective/Approach
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2021 The Orion molecular cloud (OMC) complex is the nearest and perhaps the best-studied giant molecular cloud complex within which low-mass and massive star formation occur. A variety of molecular species, from diatomic molecules to complex organic molecules

A Velocity Structure Analysis of Giant Molecular Cloud Associated with HII Region S152 [PDF]
Journal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2005 S152 is a small bright emission nebula located in the Perseus arm. Its optical diameter corresponds to 1.5 pc for an adopted distance 3.5 kpc. However, S152 is a part of a giant molecular cloud complex, which consists of several dense cores, containing ...
