  1. Testing grain surface chemistry modelsusing deuterated probes in low-mass star-forming regions. Bérengère Parise Bonn, Germany

  2. Introduction For 30 years, observations in the ISM have shown fractionations XD/XH  [D]/[H] (~1.5 10-5) D2CO/H2CO ~ 0.003 in Orion (Turner, 1990, ApJ 362, L29)  Active grain chemistry D2CO/H2CO ~ 0.05 towards the low-mass protostar IRAS16293 (Ceccarelli et al. 1998, A&A 338, L43) (figure : M.R. Hogerheijde in van Dishoeck & Blake 1998)

  3. Chemical processes Envelope heated by the protostar Prestellar core phase Grain surface reactions ? Gas phase reactions ? Desorption (e.g. Roberts & Millar 2000, A&A 361, 398) (e.g. Tielens 1983, A&A 119, 177)

  4. Gas phase versus grain chemistry Roberts & Millar 2000, A&A 361, 398 Roberts & Millar 2000, A&A 364, 780 Tielens & Hagen, 1982, A&A 114, 245 Tielens, 1983, A&A 119, 177 root reaction : H3+ + HDH2D+ + H2 H2CO Required physical conditions low temperature CO depletion CO Fractionation due to : • enhanced atomic D/H ratio in the gas phase (D formed from H2D+)  requires CO depletion and low temperature • lower activation barriers for reactions involving D H2D+ propagates the deuterium to other molecules Adsorption in grain mantles

  5. A test for surface chemistry ? Charnley et al. 1997, AJ 482, L203

  6. Deuterated methanol in IRAS16293 Parise et al. 2002, A&A 393, L49 Parise et al. 2004, A&A, 416, 159 IRAM 30m observations 23 CH2DOH lines 6 CH3OD lines 15 CHD2OH lines 12 CD3OH lines

  7. Population diagrams IRAS 16293-2422 +3 +38 f(CH2DOH) = 37 % -19 +2.2 f(CH3OD) = 1.8 % -1.2 +8.4 f(CHD2OH) = 7.4 % -4.4 +1.0 f(CD3OH) = 1.0 % -0.6 -2 -4 -4

  8. Comparison to grain chemistry models • requires an atomic D/H ratio ~ 0.1-0.2 in the gas phase. This atomic fractionation is now • reproduced by new generation • models including D2H+ and D3+ • (e.g. Roberts et al. 2003) • See poster by Vastel et al. • CH2DOH/CH3OD very high compared with the statistical ratio 3 CH3OD destroyed in the gas phase by protonation ? CH3ODH+ CH3OH + D + e- CH3OD + H + e- confirmed by Osamura et al. 2004 dashed lines : surface chemistry model Stantcheva et al. 2003, MNRAS 340, 983 red : IRAS16293-2422 observations

  9. What about looking directly on the grains ? • Observations in solid phase are less sensitive than gas phase observations. • H2O : main constituent of icy mantles around dust grains. Search for HDO in the ices Previous attempts : Detection of HDO in high mass protostars W33A et NGC7538 IRS9(Teixeira et al., 1999, A&A, L19-L22) challenged by Dartois et al. (on the edge of one SWS detector) VLT observation on W33A : HDO / H2O < 10-2(Dartois et al. 2003, A&A 399, 1009) Inconclusive mostly because high-mass protostars show a lower degree of deuteration than low-mass protostars ? Grain surface model predictions : HDO / H2O ~ 20 %

  10. Search for solid HDO in low-mass protostars grain mantles Recherche de HDO en phase solide sur les grains CH3 D:O2 -1:1 ice before and after UV irradiation (Dartois et al 2000) Observation of OD and OH stretch bands (in absorption) at 4.1 and 3 m with SpeX on IRTF (Mauna Kea) R = 1500

  11. Solid phase HDO/H2O (1) • 4 class I protostars • bright in NIR • high J-K extinction • D2CO/H2CO ~ 5% Parise et al. 2003, A&A 410, 897

  12. Solid phase HDO/H2O (2) HDO/H2O ≤ ~ 1% Does this exclude grain surface chemistry for deuteration ? Or has water a different fractionation than methanol ?

  13. Deuterated water in the gas phaseIRAS 16293 - Observations JCMT • JCMT and IRAM observations • ON-source & outflow • 5 lines detected on-source • no emission detected towards the outflow. IRAM

  14. Deuterated water in IRAS 16293 - Modelling • Model of envelope emission from • Ceccarelli, Hollenbach & Tielens 1996: • density structure : inside-out collapse (Shu scenario). • gas temperature computed self-consistently : cooling depends on CO, O and H2O abundance. • Adapted to HDO study : • collision coefficients from Green (1989) • use of the density and temperature profiles as well as water abundance derived by Ceccarelli et al. (2000). • HDO abundance : inner envelope : HDO/H2O = 3% outer envelope : HDO/H2O < 0.2 % Tev = 100 K xin xout R Parise et al. 2005, A&A 431, 547

  15. Questions raised by single dish observations • Deuterated methanol observations : • IRAS16293-2422CH2DOH/CH3OH = 37 % • CH3OD/CH3OH =1.8 % • CHD2OH/CH3OH = 7.4 % • CD3OH/CH3OH =1.0 % • Consistent with grain chemistry models, but : • these models require a high atomic D/H ratio in the gas phase, which can only occur when CO is heavily depleted. • these models predict HDO/H2O ~ 20 % ... ...HDO observation in grain mantles : • NGC1333 SVS12, SVS13, L1489 IRS, TMR1HDO/H2O ≤ 1 % • ...HDO observation in the gas phase : • IRAS16293-2422HDO/H2O = 3% in the inner enveloppe • HDO/H2O < 0.2 % in the outer enveloppe.

  16. Conclusions Modelling of the single-dish HDO emission points to a fractionation enhancement of water in the inner warm envelope (“hot corino”). Same for methanol ? Unfortunately such a modelling cannot be performed for CH2DOH because collision coefficients are not available. Moreover interferometric observations have shown that IRAS16293 is a binary with different chemical properties (PdBI, Bottinelli et al. 2004; SMA, Kuan et al. 2004, see poster by Huang et al). Accurate comparison to grain surface models can therefore only be done after observing the spatial distribution of deuterated methanol.
