We measure the energy-differential cross sections for collisional excitation of the soft X-ray electric-dipole K$\alpha$ ($x+y+w$) emission from He-like oxygen (O VII), using an electron beam ion trap. Values near their excitation…
Motivated by recent observations with Herschel/PACS, and the availability of new rate coefficients for the collisional excitation of CO (Yang et al. 2010), the excitation of warm astrophysical CO is revisited with the use of numerical and…
The branching fraction ratios of $\overline{B}^0\to D^+\tau^-\overline{\nu}_{\tau}$ and $\overline{B}^0\to D^{*+}\tau^-\overline{\nu}_{\tau}$ decays are measured with respect to their muonic counterparts, using a data sample corresponding…
Previous luminescence and absorption experiments in Co-doped ZnO revealed two ionization and one intrashell transition of $d(\textrm{Co}^{2+})$ electrons. Those optical properties are analyzed within the generalized gradient approximation…
Disentangling the different stages of the star-formation process, in particular in the high-mass regime, is a challenge in astrophysics. Chemical clocks could help alleviating this problem, but their evolution strongly depends on many…

Time-dependent wave packet calculations for the reaction H+HCl and its isotopic reactions are carried out on the potential energy surface (PES) of Bian and Werner (BW2) [Bian, W.; Werner, H. -J., J. Chem. Phys. 2000, 112, 220]. Reaction…
The dynamics of the reaction H + OH $\to$ O (3P) + H2 have been studied in a series of quasi-classical trajectory (QCT) calculations and transition state theory (TST) methods using high quality 3A' and 3A'' potential energy surfaces (PESs).…
Up to now, the methods available for measuring the rate constants of reactions taking place on heterogeneous catalysts require that the catalyst be stable over long measurement times. But catalyst are often non-stationary, they may become…
The properties of synthetic CO emission from 3D simulations of forming molecular clouds are studied within the SILCC-Zoom project. Since the time scales of cloud evolution and molecule formation are comparable, the simulations include a…
