Microscopic simulation of methanol and formaldehyde ice formation in cold dense cores
Microscopic simulation of methanol and formaldehyde ice formation in cold dense cores
Methanol and its precursor formaldehyde are among the most studied organic molecules in the interstellar medium and are abundant in the gaseous and solid phases. We recently developed a model to simulate CO hydrogenation via H atoms on interstellar ice surfaces, the most important interstellar route to H2CO and CH3OH, …
