New NIR diagnostic diagrams using [C I]/Paγ and H2 1-0 O(5)/PAH 3.3μm ratios correlate with radiation field hardness and distinguish star formation, AGN, and shock excitation in galaxy nuclei.
Hydrogen tunneling makes H-abstraction reactions by C2H, OH, and CN competitive in TMC-1 despite low individual rates, affecting aromatic abundance predictions.
New infrared spectra show reduced water ice and unusually strong aliphatic hydrocarbon absorption towards W44, attributed to shock and cosmic-ray processing in the associated molecular cloud.
