Molecular oxygen, nitrogen, and ozone have been detected on some satellites of Saturn and Jupiter, as well as on comets. They are also expected to be present in ice-grain mantles within star-forming regions. The continuous energetic processing of icy objects in the Solar System induces physical and chemical changes within the ice. Laboratory experiments that simulate energetic processing (ions, photons, and electrons) of ices are therefore essential for interpreting and directing future astronomical observations. Aims. We provide vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) photoabsorption spectroscopic data of energetically processed nitrogen- and oxygen-rich ices that will help to identify absorption bands and/or spectral slopes observed on icy objects in the Solar System and on ice-grain mantles of the interstellar medium.

The growing capabilities of these devices greatly expand the advantages of using stored ion beam methods by the availability of cryogenic temperatures, high molecular masses, and high- quality low-velocity ion beams. Furthermore, new opportunities arise for employing laser sources in a wide spectral range and for merged-beam collision experiments, ring-internal targets, and advanced particle detection techniques. Thus, new possibilities are created for sensitive experiments on collisional and internal rearrangements in complex atomic-scale systems, and in fields such as mass spectrometry and weak interactions in nuclei. Accompanying these advances, International Workshops on Electrostatic Storage Devices were held in Eilat, Israel (2005), Stockholm, Sweden (2007), Aarhus, Denmark (2009) and Gatlinburg, USA (2011). In the line of the previous meetings, the Heidelberg Workshop ESD 2013 is devoted to progress in the development of instruments and procedures as well as to research with low-energy stored ion beams – expanding to an increasingly broad range of scientific areas as the experimental

Sanders,2 Davide Curcio,1 Philip Hofmann,1, ∗ and Jill A. Miwa1, y 1Department of Physics and Astronomy, Interdisciplinary Nanoscience Center (iNANO), Aarhus University, 8000 Aarhus C, Denmark. 2Central Laser Facility, STFC Rutherford Appleton Laboratory, Harwell OX11 0QX, United Kingdom (Dated: January 14, 2019) We report on the epitaxial growth of single layer NbS2 on Au(111) and determine both its crys- talline and electronic structure by a combination of low-energy electron diffraction, scanning tun- nelling microscopy and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy. The layer is found to grow in the 1H structural phase with a lattice constant of (3.29±0.03) A,˚ a value comparable to the bulk 2H NbS2 lattice constant. The photoemission data reveals a metallic band structure down to a temperature of 30 K. The observed bands are rather broad and consistent with either a strong NbS2-substrate interaction or with the recently reported interplay of strong many-body effects in single layer NbS2 [1]. No indications of a charge density wave are observed. INTRODUCTION While few layer (3R) [23] and even single layer NbS2 [24] have been successfully synthesized, little is known about the different ground states in SL NbS2. Density Metallic transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) functional theory and GW calculations predict SL NbS2 have been studied for decades due to their susceptibility to be metallic with a half-filled upper valence band that to many fascinating quantum states, such as charge and is well-separated from other electronic states [25, 26].

Carbonic acid (H2CO3) is a weak acid relevant to astrobiology which, to date, remains undetected in space. Experimental work has shown that the β-polymorph of H2CO3 forms under space relevant conditions through energetic (UV photon, electron, and cosmic ray) processing of CO2- and H2O-rich ices. Although its α-polymorph ice has been recently reassigned to the monomethyl ester of carbonic acid, a different form of H2CO3 ice may exist and is synthesized without irradiation through surface reactions involving CO molecules and OH radicals, that is to say γ-H2CO3. Aims. We aim to provide a systematic set of vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) photoabsorption spectroscopic data of pure carbonic acid that formed and was destroyed under conditions relevant to space in support of its future identification on the surface of icy objects in the Solar System by the upcoming Jupiter ICy moons Explorer mission and on interstellar dust by the James Webb Space Telescope spacecraft.

Abstract: Layer-by-layer films of poly (allylamine hydrochloride) (PAH) and graphene oxide (GO) were characterized, looking at growth with the number of bilayers, morphology, and electrical properties. The PAH/GO films revealed a linear increase in absorbance with the increase in the number of deposited bilayers, allowing the determination that 10.7 ± 0.1 mg m−2 of GO is adsorbed per unit of area of each bilayer. GO absorption bands at 146, 210, 247 and 299 nm, assigned to π-π* and n-π* transitions in the aromatic ring (phenol) and of the carboxylic group, respectively, were characterized by vacuum ultraviolet spectroscopy. The morphological characterization of these films demonstrated that they are not completely uniform, with a bilayer thickness of 10.5 ± 0.7 nm.
