Aims. We investigate the properties of hydrocarbon grains in the galactic superwind of M 82. Methods. With AKARI, we performed near-infrared (2.5 - 4.5 um) spectroscopic observations of 34 regions in M 82 including its northern and southern halos ...

Formation of PAHs and Carbonaceous Solids in Gas-Phase Condensation Experiments [PDF]
Carbonaceous grains represent a major component of cosmic dust. In order to understand their formation pathways, they have been prepared in the laboratory by gas-phase condensation reactions such as laser pyrolysis and laser ablation.

An efficient Scholl–based strategy enables precise control of the C–C bond to access the first hexabenzocoronene–containing helical twistacene (NG2). The resulting nanographene shows pronounced helical distortion, high stability, enhanced solubility, and promising redox and optoelectronic properties.

Bacteria-mediated PAH degradation in soil and sediment [PDF]
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are ubiquitous in the natural environment and easily accumulate in soil and sediment due to their low solubility and high hydrophobicity, rendering them less available for biological degradation. However, microbial

Abstract Oil sands tailings ponds, such as those in northeastern Alberta, present environmental challenges due to slow sedimentation, water entrapment, and toxic naphthenic acids (NAs), which hinder water reclamation. This study assessed the tolerance and biodegradation potential of Chlorella vulgaris (C.

Strategies for producing biochars with minimum PAH contamination [PDF]
With the aim to develop initial recommendations for production of biochars with minimal contamination with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), we analysed a systematic set of 46 biochars produced under highly controlled pyrolysis conditions.

The electronic spin state of two Chichibabin radicals is investigated using 2‐dimensional hyperfine correlated Electron Nuclear Double Resonance. The protons (I=1/2) act as a reference for the electronic spin quantum number (S) via their hyperfine interactions.

Relationship between the molecular composition, visible light absorption, and health-related properties of smoldering woodsmoke aerosols [PDF]
Organic aerosols generated from the smoldering combustion of wood critically impact air quality and health for billions of people worldwide; yet, the links between the chemical components and the optical or biological effects of woodsmoke aerosol (WSA ...

Nanodust in the Interstellar Medium in Comparison to the Solar System
Nanodust, which undergoes stochastic heating by single starlight photons in the interstellar medium, ranges from angstrom-sized large molecules containing tens to thousands of atoms (e.g.

The ionization of anthracene, acridine, and phenazine has been explored, along with the removal of one and two hydrogen atoms, to provide valuable information for astrochemists and to understand the behavior of the resulting structures and their electronic reorganization. Abstract In this study, we systematically explored the stability and isomerism of
