The past decade has witnessed an increasing interaction between experiment and theory in
the field of molecular spectroscopy. On the computational side, ongoing developments of …

To date, 204 individual molecular species, comprised of 16 different elements, have been
detected in the interstellar and circumstellar medium by astronomical observations. These …

To date, 241 individual molecular species, composed of 19 different elements, have been
detected in the interstellar and circumstellar medium by astronomical observations. These …

Cosmic evolution is the tale of progressive transition from simplicity to complexity. The
newborn universe starts with the simplest atoms formed after the Big Bang and proceeds …

We report the first detection in the interstellar medium (ISM) of a C 2 H 5 O 2 N isomer: syn-
glycolamide (NH 2 C (O) CH 2 OH). The exquisite sensitivity at sub-mK levels of an …

We report the first detection in the interstellar medium (ISM) of the Z-isomer of
cyanomethanimine (HNCHCN), an HCN dimer proposed as precursor of adenine. We …

We present a systematic search for wide-separation (with Einstein radius θ E≳ 1.5 ″),
galaxy-scale strong lenses in the 30 000 deg 2 of the Pan-STARRS 3π survey on the …

Context. Over the past five decades, radio astronomy has shown that molecular complexity
is a natural outcome of interstellar chemistry, in particular in star forming regions. However …

Methyl isocyanate (CH3NCO) belongs to a select group of interstellar molecules considered
to be relevant precursors in the formation of larger organic compounds, including those with …

The recent analysis of the composition of the frozen surface of comet 67P/Churyumov-
Gerasimenko has revealed a significant number of complex organic molecules. Methyl …
