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 …

We review the detection history, observation, distribution, and reactivity of molecular ions in
extraterrestrial space, with particular (though not exclusive) reference to interstellar …

Understanding the energy it takes to build or break chemical bonds is essential for scientists
and engineers in a wide range of innovative fields, including catalysis, nanomaterials …

In this article, we first explored the chemical dynamics of simple diatomic radicals (dicarbon,
methylidyne) utilizing the crossed molecular beams method. This versatile experimental …

Titan, SATURN's largest satellite, is a distant world: far away from the Sun and its close,
warm TERRESTRIAL PLANETS. A fair distance from Saturn, too. Seen from Titan, at more …

We present a combined experimental and theoretical work on the ionization energies of
polyacetylene–organic molecules considered as important building blocks to form polycyclic …

Magnesium is an abundant metal element in space, and magnesium chemistry has vital
importance in the evolution of interstellar medium (ISM) and circumstellar regions, such as …

Eighty three stationary points of MgC6H2 isomers spanning from 0 to 215 kcal mol–1 have
been theoretically identified using density functional theory at the B3LYP/6-311++ G (2d, 2p) …

Metallic ions coming from the ablation of extraterrestrial dust, play a significant role in the
distribution of ions in the Earth's ionosphere. Ions of magnesium and iron, and to a lesser …

Interplanetary dust grains originate from a variety of source bodies, including comets,
asteroids, and Edgeworth–Kuiper belt objects. Centaurs, generally defined as those objects …
