Despite the generally hostile nature of the environments involved, chemistry does occur in
space. Molecules are seen in environments that span a wide range of physical and chemical …

The motion of neutral molecules in a beam can be manipulated and controlled with
inhomogeneous electric and magnetic fields. Static fields can be used to deflect or focus …

Interstellar space is not empty, but contains gaseous and particulate matter that is
concentrated into very large regions known as interstellar clouds. In the denser and cooler …

Over the past 25 years, astronomers have discovered a large number of gas-phase
molecules in space, ranging in size up to more than 10 atoms. The molecules, which are …

The physical and chemical processes leading to the formation of molecules in the interstellar
medium (ISM) sthe vast voids between the starssfascinated scientists since the first detection …

The recent development of a range of new methods for producing samples of gas-phase
molecules that are translationally cold (K) or ultracold (mK) is driving efforts to study reactive …

Broadband spectroscopy is an invaluable tool for measuring multiple gas-phase species
simultaneously. In this work we review basic techniques, implementations, and current …

There is now ample evidence from an assortment of experiments, especially those involving
the CRESU (Cinétique de Réaction en Ecoulement Supersonique Uniforme) technique, that …

In this paper we present calculated fractional abundances in dense interstellar clouds for
selected atomic and molecular species using three different homogeneous, pseudo-time …

Photoelectron spectroscopy has long been a powerful method in the toolbox of experimental
physical chemistry and molecular physics. Recent improvements in coincidence methods …
