We review the gas-phase chemistry in extraterrestrial space that is driven by reactions with
atomic and molecular ions. Ions are ubiquitous in space and are potentially responsible for …

Electron-capture dissociation (ECD) is a new fragmentation technique that utilizes ion–
electron recombination reactions. The latter have parallels in other research fields; revealing …

The absolute dissociative recombination and absolute dissociative excitation rate
coefficients and cross sections have been determined for N2 and electrons for collision …

Mutual neutralization of hydronium (H3O+) and hydroxide (OH−) ions is a very fundamental
chemical reaction. Yet, there is only limited experimental evidence about the underlying …

We present an experimental study of the dissociative recombination (DR) of H 3 O+ and its
isotopomers D 3 O+ and HD 2 O+ performed at the ASTRID storage ring. DR cross sections …

Dissociative recombination of the polyatomic ions D 3 O+ and H 3 O+ with electrons have
been studied at the heavy-ion storage ring CRYRING (Manne Siegbahn Laboratory …

Dissociative recombination of vibrationally relaxed H2O+ ions with electrons has been
studied in the heavy-ion storage ring CRYRING. Absolute cross-sections have been …

There is not a single Nobel Prize in chemistry awarded to an extraterrestrial chemical
discovery. This is in sharp contrast to the Nobel Prizes in physics, where about 10 prizes …

▪ Abstract The development of heavy-ion storage-cooler rings for atomic physics has made it
possible to produce high-quality beams of molecular ions that are internally cold. The stored …
