Using archival, high-resolution far-ultraviolet HST/STIS spectra of 34 Galactic O and B stars, we measure CI column densities and compare them with measurements from the literature of CO and H_2 with regard to understanding the presence of…
The mechanisms for photodissociation of methyl halides (CH$_3$X, X= Cl, Br, I) have been studied for these molecules when adsorbed on thin films of C$_6$H$_6$ or C$_6$F$_6$ on copper single crystals, using time-of-flight spectroscopy with…
Nowadays there are several observational studies about the 13CO/C18O abundance ratio (X) towards nearby molecular clouds. These works give observational support to the C18O selective photodissociation due to the interaction between the FUV…
We consider an ensemble of diatomic molecules resonantly coupled to an optical cavity under strong coupling conditions at normal incidence. Photodissociation dynamics is examined via direct numerical integration of the coupled…
A previous study of diatomic molecules revealed that variational second-order density matrix theory has serious problems in the dissociation limit when the N-representability is imposed at the level of the usual two-index (P, Q, G) or even…
Hybrid Monte Carlo and molecular dynamics simulations were used to investigate the interaction of light interstitials in multi-element Ni-based alloys. We show that light interstitials such as boron and oxygen fundamentally alter…

We present an unbiased large-scale (9 deg$^2$) CN ($N$=1-0) and C$^{18}$O ($J$=1-0) survey of Cygnus-X conducted with the Nobeyama 45m Cygnus-X CO survey. CN and C$^{18}$O are detected in various objects towards the Cygnus-X North and South…
Photodissociation regions (PDRs) contain a large fraction of all of the interstellar matter in galaxies. Classical examples include the boundaries between ionized regions and molecular clouds in regions of massive star formation, marking…
In bright photodissociation regions (PDRs) associated to massive star formation, the presence of dense "clumps" that are immersed in a less dense interclump medium is often proposed to explain the difficulty of models to account for the…
