Sub-wavelength nanostructured systems with tunable electromagnetic properties, such as hyperbolic metamaterials (HMMs), provide a useful platform to tailor spontaneous emission processes. Here, we investigate a system comprising $Eu^{…
The likely JWST detection of vibrationally excited H3+ emission in Orion's irradiated disk system d203-506 raises the important question of whether cosmic-ray ionization is enhanced in disks within clustered star-forming regions, or whether…
In diffuse interstellar clouds the chemistry that leads to the formation of the oxygen bearing ions OH+, H2O+, and H3O+ begins with the ionization of atomic hydrogen by cosmic rays, and continues through subsequent hydrogen abstraction…
We demonstrate that the formation of negative hydrogen ions (H-) occurs in a wide class of atomic and molecular collisions. In our experiments, H- emission from hydroxyl cations and acetone molecules was observed in keV-energy collisions.…
We present the theory of radiative association of atoms and molecules, and we apply it to the (H$_2$-H$^-$) van der Waals complex. We discuss the possibility for the H$_3^-$ ion to be formed in the interstellar medium in an environment with…
Molecular hydrogen (H$_2$) and hydrogen deuteride (HD) are key coolants in primordial gas and regulate the formation of the first stars and proto-galaxies. Recent results from the James Webb Space Telescope provide striking insights into…
The presence of methyl alcohol or methanol (CH$_3$OH) in several astrophysical environments has been characterized by its high abundance that depends on both the production rate and the destruction rate. In the present work, the…
Rate constants for the C(3P) + CH3OH reaction have been measured in a continuous supersonic flow reactor over the range 50 K to 296 K. C(3P) was created by the in-situ pulsed laser photolysis of CBr4, a multiphoton process which also…
Experiments are conducted to investigate the role of the avoided crossing seam in the photodissociation of H$_3^+$. Three-dimensional imaging of dissociation products is used to determine the kinetic energy release and branching ratio among…
We report a combined experimental and theoretical study on the formation of O2+ by electronimpact double ionization and fragmentation of carbon dioxide (CO2) molecule. Through fragment ions and electron coincidence momentum imaging, we…
The H3+ and H2D+ ions are important probes of the physical and chemical conditions in regions of the interstellar medium where new stars are forming. This paper reviews how observations of these species and of heavier ions such as HCO+ and…
Rate constants have been measured for the C(3P) + CH3CN reaction between 50 K and 296 K using a continuous-flow supersonic reactor. C(3P) atoms were created by the in-situ pulsed laser photolysis of CBr4 at 266 nm, while the kinetics of…
Anion and cation emission following water dissociation was studied for 6.6-keV $^{16}$O$^{+}$ + H$_{2}$O collisions. Absolute cross sections for the emission of all positively and negatively charged fragments, differential in both energy…
Carbon dioxide (CO$_2$) is one of the most important interstellar molecules. While it is considered that it forms on the surface of interstellar dust grains, the exact contribution of different chemical mechanisms is still poorly…
Yamamoto et al. (1987) reported the first detection of $c$-C$_3$H radical in {TMC-1} through its transition $2_{1 2} \to 1_{1 1}$ at 91.5 GHz. Mangum and Wootten (1990) detected $c$-C$_3$H through the transition $1_{1 0} \to 1_{1 1}$ at…
Theoretical study on H$_2^+$ in an intense infrared laser field on the attosecond time-scale reveals that the molecular ion shows multiple bursts of ionization within a half-cycle of the laser field oscillation, in contrast to the widely…
An intuitive physical mechanism for single attosecond pulse generation in multi-cycle pulse regime is proposed. We suggest that the continuum spectra of HHG can be controlled through the modulation of carrier wave, while keeping the…
Young massive stars produce Far-UV photons which dissociate the molecular gas on the surfaces of their parent molecular clouds. Of the many dissociation products which result from this ``back-reaction'', atomic hydrogen \HI is one of the…
Atomic hydrogen loss at the top of HD 209458b's atmosphere has been recently detected Vidal-Madjar et al. 2003. We have developed a 1-dimensional model to study the chemistry in the upper atmosphere of this extrasolar "hot jupiter". The 3…
The formation of methanol (CH3OH) on icy grain mantles during the star formation cycle is mainly associated with the CO freeze-out stage. Yet there are reasons to believe that CH3OH also can form at an earlier period of interstellar ice…
