项目摘要
Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) are among the largest organic molecules found in space. They play a crucial role in various physical and chemical processes and in the prebiotic evolution toward life. Their infrared signature, the so-called Unidentified Infrared (UIR) emission bands, is omnipresent in our Galaxy and beyond. However, specifics of the emitting population remain elusive. Indeed, since the UIR bands originate from chemical bonds involving only nearest-neighbor atoms, they have only a weak dependence on the size and structure of the molecule, and it is therefore not possible to identify the individual PAH molecules that cause the infrared emission. Similarly, although it is firmly established that the PAH molecules are modified under the influence of the physical conditions of their environment (such as temperature, density, radiation field), the origin of these variations is not entirely understood. These unknowns are major roadblocks in i) understanding their connection with other cosmic organic species, ii) accurately quantifying their contribution to physical and chemical processes, and iii) the development of diagnostic tools that would transform the ubiquitous UIR bands into powerful probes of the physical and chemical conditions in the Universe. Today, the world is eagerly awaiting the launch of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). With its incredible improvement in spatial resolution, combined with its complete spectral coverage of the PAH infrared emission bands and superb sensitivity, JWST will revolutionize PAH research. Previous observations could only present spectra averaged over regions with vastly different properties, thus greatly confusing their interpretation. The amazing spatial resolution of JWST will disentangle these different regions. This will allow us to quantify precisely how PAHs are modified by the physical conditions of their host environment and thus trace how PAHs evolve across space. Because of its breakthrough potential for PAH research, I am leading a JWST program that will be among the first science observations done by JWST. The research program I propose will take full advantage of this unique opportunity to tackle key questions in PAH research. I will study how the infrared signature of PAHs changes on these fine spatial scales and how it is related to infrared signatures of other carbonaceous species. The observational data will be complemented by both a model of the physical and chemical evolution of PAHs and the NASA Ames PAH Infrared spectral database, which contains the physical and spectral properties of a large number of PAHs and related molecules. This combination allows to interpret the observational properties in terms of the composition of the PAH population and the mechanisms that are driving these changes.
多环芳烃(PAHs)是在太空中发现的最大的有机分子之一。它们在各种物理和化学过程中发挥着至关重要的作用,并在生命的进化过程中发挥着重要作用。它们的红外特征,即所谓的不明红外(UIR)发射带,在银河系内外无处不在。然而,排放人口的具体情况仍然难以捉摸。事实上,由于UIR波段来源于只涉及最近邻原子的化学键,它们对分子的大小和结构只有微弱的依赖性,因此不可能确定引起红外发射的单个多环芳烃分子。类似地,虽然已经确定多环芳烃分子在其环境的物理条件(如温度、密度、辐射场)的影响下会发生改变,但这些变化的来源尚未完全了解。这些未知因素是以下方面的主要障碍:1)了解它们与其他宇宙有机物种的联系;2)准确量化它们对物理和化学过程的贡献;3)开发诊断工具,将无处不在的UIR波段转化为对宇宙物理和化学条件的强大探测。今天,全世界都在热切地等待詹姆斯·韦伯太空望远镜(JWST)的发射。凭借其令人难以置信的空间分辨率提高,加上其对多环芳烃红外发射波段的完整光谱覆盖和卓越的灵敏度,JWST将彻底改变多环芳烃的研究。以前的观测只能呈现出性质大不相同区域的平均光谱,因此极大地混淆了它们的解释。JWST惊人的空间分辨率将解开这些不同的区域。这将使我们能够精确地量化多环芳烃是如何被其宿主环境的物理条件所改变的,从而追踪多环芳烃是如何在空间中进化的。由于它在多环芳烃研究方面的突破性潜力,我正在领导一个JWST项目,这将是JWST进行的首批科学观测之一。我提出的研究计划将充分利用这一独特的机会来解决多环芳烃研究中的关键问题。我将研究多环芳烃的红外特征在这些精细的空间尺度上是如何变化的,以及它与其他碳质物种的红外特征之间的关系。多环芳烃的物理和化学演化模型以及包含大量多环芳烃及其相关分子的物理和光谱特性的NASA Ames多环芳烃红外光谱数据库将对观测数据进行补充。这种组合可以根据多环芳烃种群的组成和驱动这些变化的机制来解释观测特性。
