Experimental measurements and theoretical calculations of state-to-state rate coefficients for rotational energy transfer of CO in collision with H$_2$ are reported at the very low temperatures prevailing in dense interstellar clouds (5 -…
The reactions of ground state atomic carbon, C(3P), are likely to be important in astrochemistry due to the high abundance levels of these atoms in the dense interstellar medium. Here we present a study of the gas-phase reaction between…
The reaction between D$^+$ and H$_2$ plays an important role in astrochemistry at low temperatures and also serves as a prototype for simple ion-molecule reaction. Its ground $\tilde{X}~^1A^{\prime}$ state has a very small thermodynamic…
This work presents the development of a protocol for the measurement of collisional deexcitation rate constants of N$_2$(C$^3\Pi_u$ , $\nu$ = 0-4) States by O$_2$, N$_2$, H$_2$, CO$_2$ and CH$_4$. Excited nitrogen is produced using…
We investigate the relative efficiencies of low-temperature chemical reactions in the Interstellar medium (ISM) with H$^-$ anion reacting in the gas phase with cyanopolyyne neutral molecules, leading to the formation of anionic C$_x$N$^-$…
The formation of interstellar water has been commonly accepted to occur on the surfaces of icy dust grains in dark molecular clouds at low temperatures (10-20 K), involving hydrogenation reactions of oxygen allotropes. As a result of the…
With the 30-m IRAM radio telescope, we observed several massive star forming regions at wavelengths of 3-4 and 2 mm. The temperature of the gas in the sources was estimated from the lines of CH$_{3}$CCH and from the transitions of the…
We investigate four-body nuclear reactions in stellar environments contributing to creation of light nuclei, exemplified by $^9$Be and $^{12}$C. The originally assumed process is radiative capture, where nuclear clusters combine into the…
The determination of astrophysical reaction rates requires different approaches depending on the conditions in hydrostatic and explosive burning. The focus here is on astrophysical reaction rates for radiative neutron capture reactions.…
High quality archival spectra of interstellar absorption from C I toward 9 stars, taken with the Goddard High Resolution Spectrograph on the Hubble Space Telescope, were analyzed. Our sample was supplemented by two sight lines, 23 Ori and…
Radiative association and photodissociation rates are calculated for quadrupole transitions of H2. A complete set of bound and unbound states are included in a self-consistent master equation to obtain steady-state concentrations for a…
Based on recent $Herschel$ results, the ortho-to-para ratio (OPR) of NH$_2$ has been measured towards the following high-mass star-forming regions: W31C (G10.6-0.4), W49N (G43.2-0.1), W51 (G49.5-0.4), and G34.3+0.1. The OPR at thermal…
The internal energy available in vibrationally excited H2 molecules can be used to overcome or diminish the activation barrier of various chemical reactions of interest for molecular astrophysics. In this article we investigate in detail…
The reaction between He$^+$ and CH$_3$F forming predominantly CH$_2^+$ and CHF$^+$ has been studied at collision energies $E_{\rm coll}$ between 0 and $k_{\rm B}\cdot 10$~K in a merged-beam apparatus. To avoid heating of the ions by stray…
Interstellar complex organic molecules (COMs) are commonly observed during star formation, and are proposed to form through radical chemistry in icy grain mantles. Reactions between ions and neutral molecules in ices may provide an…
The laboratory work presented here, simulates the chemistry on icy dust grains as typical for the 'CO freeze-out stage' in dark molecular clouds. It differs from previous studies in that solid-state hydrogenation and vacuum…
Hydrogenation reactions of CO in inter- and circumstellar ices are regarded as an important starting point in the formation of more complex species. Previous laboratory measurements by two groups on the hydrogenation of CO ices resulted in…
We propose a temperature-resolved Monte Carlo (MC) approach to identify the temperature regimes in which low-energy helium-burning reaction rates most strongly affect nucleosynthesis in very massive stars that undergo pair-instability…
Predictions of astrochemical models depend strongly on the reaction rate coefficients used in the simulations. We reviewed a number of key reactions for the chemistry of nitrogen-bearing species in the dense interstellar medium and proposed…
$Aims$: We revisit with new augmented accuracy the theoretical dynamics of basic isotope exchange reactions involved in the $^{12}$C/$^{13}$C, $^{16}$O/$^{18}$O, and $^{14}$N/$^{15}$N balance because these reactions have already been…
