A Hydrodynamical Model of a Rotating Wind Source and Its Effects on the Collapse of a Rotating Core
This work presents three‐dimensional hydrodynamical simulations with the fully parallel GAGDET2 code, to model a rotating source that emits wind in order to study the subsequent dynamics of the wind in three independent scenarios. In the first scenario we consider several models of the wind source, which is characterized by a rotation velocity Vrot and

Star Formation near Photodissociation Regions: Detection of a Peculiar Protostar near Cederblad 201 [PDF]
We present the detection and characterization of a peculiar low-mass protostar (IRAS 22129+7000) located ~0.4 pc from Ced 201 Photodissociation Region (PDR) and ~0.2 pc from the HH450 jet. The cold circumstellar envelope surrounding the object has been mapped through its 1.2 mm dust continuum emission with IRAM-30m/MAMBO.

Physicochemical Constraints on the Abiotic Polymerization of Nucleotides Into RNA
Abstract One of the key steps in the origin of life is the polymerization of nucleotides into nucleic acids like RNA. We have quantified the energetic impact of temperature, pressure, and composition on the polymerization of nucleotides into RNA using the Gibbs function. These Gibbs energies have been used to calculate the probability that a nucleotide

Protostars in the Elephant Trunk Nebula
International audienceThe optically-dark globule IC 1396A is revealed using Spitzer images at 3.6, 4.5, 5.8, 8, and 24 microns to be infrared-bright and to contain a set of previously unknown protostars.

NMA Imaging of Envelopes and Disks around Low Mass Protostars and T Tauri Stars [PDF]
We are intensively studying low mass star formation with the radio telescopes at Nobeyama in Japan. Using both the Nobeyama 45 m dish equipped with a 2 × 2 array receiver and the Nobeyama Millimeter Array (NMA), we can cover a very wide spatial range from overall molecular clouds down to compact protoplanetary disks.

SIMULATIONS ON A MOVING MESH: THE CLUSTERED FORMATION OF POPULATION III PROTOSTARS [PDF]
The cosmic dark ages ended a few hundred million years after the big bang, when the first stars began to fill the universe with new light. It has generally been argued that these stars formed in isolation and were extremely massive-perhaps 100 times as ...

Rotational Spectroscopy of the Acetone‐Water Complex: Large Amplitude Motions
The structure and dynamics of the acetone‐water complex were explored using jet‐cooled rotational spectroscopy and computational chemistry calculations. Our detailed rot‐tunneling analyses of acetone‐H2O and −D2O revealed that the interaction with water disrupts the equivalence of the two methyl rotors, resulting in a significantly lower methyl rotor ...

Formation of Methanol via Fischer‐Tropsch Catalysis by Cosmic Iron Sulphide
Periodic quantum mechanical simulations evidence the potentiality to synthesise methanol through a Fischer‐Tropsch mechanism in different astrophysical environments facilitated by the catalytic properties of cosmic FeS grains, which are enhanced by the presence of naturally‐occurring point surface defects.

Sulforaphane and ophthalmic diseases
Sulforaphane (SFN) is an organosulfur compound categorized as an isothiocyanate (ITC), primarily extracted from cruciferous vegetables like broccoli and cabbage. This review comprehensively outlines recent research on SFN, elucidates its mechanisms of action, and discusses potential therapeutic benefits for eye disorders such as age‐related macular ...
