Received: 6 August 2012; in revised form: 29 September 2012 / Accepted: 2 November 2012 / Published: 7 November 2012 Abstract: We describe the initial realization of behavior in the biosphere, which we term behavioral chemistry. If molecules are complex enough to attain a stochastic element to their structural conformation in such as a way as to radically affect their function in a biological (evolvable) setting, then they have the capacity to behave. This circumstance is described here as behavioral chemistry, unique in its definition from the colloquial chemical behavior. This transition between chemical behavior and behavioral chemistry need be explicit when discussing the root cause of behavior, which itself lies squarely at the origins of life and is the foundation of choice. RNA polymers of sufficient length meet the criteria for behavioral chemistry and therefore are capable of making a choice. Keywords: behavior; chemistry; free will; RNA; origins of life 1. Introduction Behavior is an integral feature of life. Behavior is manifest when a choice is possible, and a living entity responds to its environment in one of multiple possible ways.

Its presence influences the evolution of the astronomical objects which in turn modify its physical and chemical properties. The nature of cosmic dust, its intimate coupling with its environment, constitute a rich field of research based on observations, modelling and experimental work. This review presents the observations of the different components of interstellar dust and discusses their evolution during the life cycle of the interstellar medium. 1. INTRODUCTION Interstellar dust grains are found everywhere in the Universe: in the Solar System, around stars at all evolutionary stages, in interstellar clouds of all kind, in galaxies and in the intergalactic medium. Cosmic dust is intimately mixed with the gas-phase and represents about 1% of the gas (in mass) in our Galaxy. The interstellar extinction and the emission of diffuse interstellar clouds is reproduced by three dust components: a population of large grains, the BGs (Big Grains, ∼10–500 nm) made of silicate and a refractory mantle, a population of carbonaceous nanograins, the VSGs (Very Small Grains, 1–10 nm) and a population of macro-molecules the PAHs (Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons) [1]. These three components are more or less abundant in the diverse astrophysical environments reflecting the coupling of dust with the environment and its evolution according to the physical and dynamical conditions.

Sandford NASA Ames Research Center, MS 245-6, Moffett Field, CA 94035 Received 1998 July 13; accepted 1998 November 24; published 1999 January 18 ABSTRACT The infrared emission band spectrum associated with many different interstellar objects can be modeled successfully by using combined laboratory spectra of neutral and positively charged polycyclic aromatic hydro- carbons (PAHs). These model spectra, shown here for the ®rst time, alleviate the principal spectroscopic criticisms previously leveled at the PAH hypothesis and demonstrate that mixtures of free molecular PAHs can indeed account for the overall appearance of the widespread interstellar infrared emission spectrum. Furthermore, these models give us insight into the structures, stabilities, abundances, and ionization balance of the interstellar PAH population. These, in turn, re¯ect conditions in the emission zones and shed light on the microscopic processes involved in the carbon nucleation, growth, and evolution in circumstellar shells and the interstellar medium.

    The Next Decade in Astrochemistry: An Integrated Approach An Astro2010 Science White Paper by Lucy M. Ziurys (U. Arizona) Michael C. McCarthy (Harvard, CfA) Anthony Remijan (NRAO) DeWayne Halfen (U.Arizona) Al Wooten (NRAO) Brooks H. Pate (U.Virginia) Science Frontier Panels: Planets and Stars and Star Formation Stars and Stellar Evolution The Galactic Neighborhood 1 Introduction: The Transformational Role of Astrochemistry: Among the most fundamental questions in astronomy are those concerning the formation of stars and planets from interstellar material and the feedback mechanisms from those stars on the dynamics and chemical evolution of the ISM itself. Studies of the Milky Way and other galaxies in the Local Group have shown that massive molecular clouds are the principal sites of star formation (e.g. Rosolowsky and Blitz 2005). The resultant stars can limit the star formation process as their radiation heats and disperses the remaining cloud (e.g. Matzner 2002). Star formation itself generally proceeds through the formation of a proto-planetary disk, which in turn leads to the establishment of planetary systems (e.g. Glassgold et al. 2004) and the creation of reservoirs of icy bodies. Such reservoirs are the sources of comets, asteroids, and meteorites, which provide a continuing source of material to planets via bombardment (e.g. Mumma et al. 2003). The material in stars is subject to nuclear processing, and some of it is returned to the ISM via supernovae and mass loss from other evolved stars (Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB), red giants and supergiants: e.g. Wilson 2000). In our galaxy, planetary nebulae, which form from AGB stars, are thought to supply almost an order of magnitude more mass to the ISM than supernovae (e.g.

We have computed physical parameters such as density, degree of ionization and temperature, constrained by a large observational data set on atomic and molecular species, for the line of sight toward the single cloud HD 147889. Diffuse interstellar bands (DIBs) produced along this line of sight are well documented and can be used to test the PAH hypothesis. To this effect, the charge state fractions of different polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are calculated in HD 147889 as a function of depth for the derived density, electron abundance and temperature profile. As input for the construction of these charge state distributions, the microscopic properties of the PAHs, e.g., ionization potential and electron affinity, are determined for a series of symmetry groups. The combination of a physical model for the chemical and thermal balance of the gas toward HD 147889 with a detailed treatment of the PAH charge state distribution, and laboratory and theoretical data on specific PAHs, allow us to compute electronic spectra of gas phase PAH molecules and to draw conclusions about the required properties of PAHs as DIB carriers.

  • Physical Processes in the Interstellar Medium
    Physical Processes in the Interstellar Medium Ralf S. Klessen and Simon C. O. Glover Abstract Interstellar space is filled with a dilute mixture of charged particles, atoms, molecules and dust grains, called the interstellar medium (ISM). Understand- ing its physical properties and dynamical behavior is of pivotal importance to many areas of astronomy and astrophysics. Galaxy formation and evolu- tion, the formation of stars, cosmic nucleosynthesis, the origin of large com- plex, prebiotic molecules and the abundance, structure and growth of dust grains which constitute the fundamental building blocks of planets, all these processes are intimately coupled to the physics of the interstellar medium. However, despite its importance, its structure and evolution is still not fully understood. Observations reveal that the interstellar medium is highly tur- bulent, consists of different chemical phases, and is characterized by complex structure on all resolvable spatial and temporal scales. Our current numerical and theoretical models describe it as a strongly coupled system that is far from equilibrium and where the different components are intricately linked to- gether by complex feedback loops. Describing the interstellar medium is truly a multi-scale and multi-physics problem. In these lecture notes we introduce the microphysics necessary to better understand the interstellar medium. We review the relations between large-scale and small-scale dynamics, we con- sider turbulence as one of the key drivers of galactic evolution, and we review the physical processes that lead to the formation of dense molecular clouds and that govern stellar birth in their interior.
