New Interstellar Molecular Detections: Implications for “Shock Chemistry”
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 04 August 2017
Extract
Several new interstellar species have recently been detected in the molecular gas, including rotationally-excited CH, vibrationally-excited HCN, and a new molecular ion, HCNH+. These detections have raised some interesting questions concerning the relative importance of “shock” or “high temperature” chemistry vs. ion-molecule reactions in the synthesis of interstellar molecules in dense clouds.
