  报告题目:Impact of dust grain distribution on the chemical evolution in the ISM

  报告人:Dr. Wasim IQBAL

  报告人简介:云南大学西南天文研究所博士后,之前曾在法国波尔多大学从事博士后研究工作。

  主要研究工作包括:

  -Development of hybrid model of gas-grain chemistry and dust evolution (current project)

  -Developed Nautilus multi-grain code for chemical evolution in interstellar medium

  -Developed, from scratch, numerical simulation codes based on Monte Carlo simulation techniques to study formation of simple molecules in star forming regions

  -Took basic training of ice deposition and UV irradiation of ices in the ultra-high vacuum chamber in laboratories

  报告摘要:Many chemical reactions occur at the surface of interstellar dust grains, producing a large diversity of molecules more or less complex. Most current astrochemical models include only a single size of grains (0.1 micron representing most of the mass of silicate grains) to study the formation and destruction of molecules on the dust surface. We have studied the effect of considering a distribution of grain sizes on the chemical evolution of various complex molecules in cold clouds in the ISM.

  We also show how different types of grain size distributions can impact the chemical evolution in the ISM. In our model, each grain has its own grain number density which comes from either MRN or WD distribution. Other important parameters such as grain surface temperature or cosmic ray induced desorption also vary with grain sizes. We present abundances of various molecules including some complex molecules in the gas phase and also on the surface of dust grains at different time intervals during the simulation. We also compare our results with observed abundances in TMC-1 and L134N. We show how a multi grain model can be a better tool in explaining the observed abundances in these cold dense clouds.
