The recent advancements in far-infrared (far-IR) astronomy brought about by the Herschel,
SOFIA, and ALMA observatories have led to technological advancements in millimeterwave …

The interest in the production of nanoparticles (NPs) within Ar/C 2 H 2 reactive plasmas is
increasing, driven by their potential applications in functional materials or for their analogy to …

We present a new experimental set-up devoted to the study of gas phase molecules and
processes using broad-band high spectral resolution rotational spectroscopy. A reactor …

Laboratory astrochemistry aims at simulating, in the laboratory, some of the chemical and
physical processes that operate in different regions of the universe. Amongst the diverse …

Context. Dinitriles with a saturated hydrocarbon skeleton and a− C≡ N group at each end
can have large electric dipole moments. Their formation can be related to highly reactive …

We present high-resolution rotational spectroscopy of the two higher energy conformers of 2-
cyanobutane (C 4 H 9 CN). We analysed spectra starting from 12 to 27 GHz using the …

We present a home-built chirped-pulse Fourier transform millimeter wave (CP-FTMMW)
spectrometer. The setup is devoted to the sensitive recording of high-resolution molecular …

We present an experimental instrument that performs laboratory-based gas-phase Terahertz
Desorption Emission Spectroscopy (THz-DES) experiments in support of astrochemistry …

Recent spectroscopic observations by sensitive radio telescopes require accurate molecular
spectral line frequencies to identify molecular species in a forest of lines detected. To …

Context. At least a dozen molecules with a formyl group (HCO) have been observed to date
in the interstellar medium (ISM), suggesting that other such species exist and remain to be …
