The Hot Core around the Low-Mass Protostar IRAS 16293–2422: Scoundrels Rule!

TL;DR: In this paper, the results of an IRAM 30 m study of the molecular composition associated with the low-mass protostar IRAS 16293-2422 were reported.
Journal ArticleDOI

Non-thermal desorption from interstellar dust grains via exothermic surface reactions

TL;DR: In this article, a non-thermal desorption mechanism was proposed to break the bond between the product species and the surface of a gas-grain network of reactions in which the exothermicity of surface addition reactions was utilized to break off the bond.
Journal ArticleDOI

A KInetic Database for Astrochemistry (KIDA)

TL;DR: The KInetic Database for Astrochemistry (KIDA) as mentioned in this paper is a database of gas-phase reactions with rate coefficients and uncertainties that will be vetted to the greatest extent possible.
Journal ArticleDOI

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in dense cloud chemistry

TL;DR: In this article, the role of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in the chemistry of cold dense cores was investigated and the results confirmed that the inclusion of PAHs changes many of the calculated abundances of smaller species considerably.
