The cross-disciplinary field of astrochemistry exists to understand the formation, destruction,
and survival of molecules in astrophysical environments. Molecules in space are …

The evolution of star-forming regions and their thermal balance are strongly influenced by
their chemical composition, which, in turn, is determined by the physicochemical processes …

Advanced telescopes, such as ALMA and the James Webb Space Telescope, are likely to
show that the chemical universe may be even more complex than currently observed …

It has been implicitly assumed that ices on grains in molecular clouds and protoplanetary
disks are formed by homogeneous layers regardless of their composition or crystallinity. To …

The relative desorption energies of CO and N 2 are key to interpretations of observed
interstellar CO and N 2 abundance patterns, including the well-documented CO and N 2 H+ …

Low-mass protostars are the extrasolar analogues of the natal Solar system. Sophisticated
physicochemical models are used to simulate the formation of two protoplanetary discs from …

Despite hydrogen sulphide (H2S) has been predicted to be the major reservoir of S-bearing
species on the icy mantles of interstellar grains, no solid H2S has been detected so far. A …

Dust grains play a central role in the physics and chemistry of cosmic environments. They
influence the optical and thermal properties of the medium due to their interaction with stellar …

Water is one of the most important and abundant molecules in star-forming regions. In
protoplanetary disks, where planets and comets form, H 2 O is in a gas or solid form …

The origin of the interstellar object 1I/'Oumuamua has defied explanation. We perform
calculations of the non‐gravitational acceleration that would be experienced by bodies …
