- Cross sections and branching ratios are presented for the dissociative recombination of the CF2+ and C-3(+) ions with electrons. It is found that the channel producing CF + F is dominant for the reaction with CF2+ and the production of CF2 + F is dominant for the reaction with CF3+. The cross sections for these two ions are very similar.

- The branching ratios of the different reaction pathways and the overall rate of the dissociative recombination of CD3OD2 + were measured at the CRYRING storage ring located at the Manne Siegbahn Laboratory in Stockholm, Sweden. A preliminary analysis of the data yielded that formation of methanol accounts for only 6±2% of the total reaction rate. Largely, dissociative recombination of CD3OD 2 + involves fragmentation of the C-O bond, the major process being the three-body break-up forming CD3, OD and D (branching ratio 0.59). A non-negligible formation of interstellar methanol by the previously proposed mechanism is therefore very unlikely.

- The branching ratios of the different reaction pathways and the overall rate coefficients of the dissociative recombination reactions of CH3OH2+ and CD3OD2+ have been measured at the CRYRING storage ring located in Stockholm, Sweden. Analysis of the data yielded the result that formation of methanol or deuterated methanol accounted for only 3 and 6% of the total rate in CH3OH2+ and CD3OD2+, respectively. Dissociative recombination of both isotopomeres mainly involves fragmentation of the C - O bond, the major process being the three-body break-up forming CH3, OH and H (CD3, OD and D). The overall cross sections are best fitted by sigma = 1.2 +/- 0.1 x 10(-15) E-1.15 +/- 0.02 cm(2) and sigma = 9.6 +/- 0.9 x 10(-16) E-1.20 +/- 0.02 cm(2) for CH3OH2+ and CD3OD2+, respectively. From these values thermal reaction rate coefficients of k(T) = 8.9 +/- 0.9 x 10(-7) (T/300) (- 0.59 +/- 0.02) cm(3) s(-1) (CH3OH2+) and k( T) = 9.1 +/- 0.9 x 10(-7) (T/ 300) (- 0.63 +/- 0.02) cm(3) s(-1)(CD3OD2+) can be calculated. A non-negligible formation of interstellar methanol by the previously proposed mechanism via radiative association of CH3+ and H2O and subsequent dissociative recombination of the resulting CH3OH2+ ion to yield methanol and hydrogen atoms is therefore very unlikely.

- Dimethyl disulfide (DMDS) and N-methylacetamide are two first choice model systems that represent the disulfide bridge bonding and the peptide bonding in proteins. These molecules are therefore suitable for investigation of the mechanisms involved when proteins fragment under electron capture dissociation (ECD). The dissociative recombination cross sections for both protonated DMDS and protonated N-methylacetamide were determined at electron energies ranging from 0.001 to 0.3 eV. Also, the branching ratios at 0 eV center-of-mass collision energy were determined. The present results give support for the indirect mechanism of ECD, where free hydrogen atoms produced in the initial fragmentation step induce further decomposition. We suggest that both indirect and direct dissociations play a role in ECD.

- Branching ratios and absolute cross sections have been measured for the dissociative recombination of DCCCN+ and DCCCND+ using the CRYRING ion storage ring. In the case of DCCCN+ the dissociation yielding D + C3N and those leading to two fragments containing a pair of heavy atoms dominate, whereas pathways producing a fragment with three heavy atoms play only a minor role. Conversely, for DCCCND+, only those channels preserving the carbon chain or producing two fragments with a pair of heavy atoms each are detected. The cross sections of the reactions are very similar and can be fitted to the expressions sigma = (2.9 +/- 0.5) x 10(-15)E(eV)(-1.05 +/- 0.02) cm(2) and sigma = (2.3 +/- 0.4) x 10(-15)E(eV)(-1.10 +/- 0.02) cm(2) for DCCCN+ and DCCCND+, respectively. From these data, thermal reaction rates of k(T) = (1.5 +/- 0.3) x 10(-6)(T/300 K)(-0.60 +/- 0.02) cm(3) s(-1) and k(T) = (1.5 +/- 0.3) x 10(-6)(T/300 K)(-0.58 +/- 0.02) cm(3) s(-1) were calculated for DCCCN+ and DCCCND+, respectively. These rates and branching ratios are compared with those hitherto used in astrophysical models.

- Branching ratios and absolute cross sections have been measured for the dissociative recombination of (SO2+)-O-18 using the CRYRING ion storage ring. The branching ratio of the (SO2+)-O-18 + e(-)-->(SO)-O-18+O-18 channel amounts to 61%, while the three-body breakup (SO2+)-O-18 + e(-)-->S+2(18)O accounts for the remaining 39% of the total reaction. The cross section of the reaction could be fitted by the expression sigma=(1.2+/-0.4)x10(-15) E-0.96+/-0.02 cm(2), which leads to a thermal reaction rate of k(T)=(4.6+/-0.2)x10(-7)(T/300 K)(-0.52+/-0.02) cm(3) mol(-1) s(-1).

- This paper presents results concerning measurements of the dissociative recombination (DR) of dihydrogen sulfide ions. In combination with the ion storage ring CRYRING an imaging technique was used to investigate the breakup dynamics of the three-body channel in the DR of (SD2+)-S-32. The two energetically available product channels S(P-3)+2D(S-2) and S(D-1)+2D(S-2) were both populated, with a branching fraction of the ground-state channel of 0.6(0.1). Information about the angle between the two deuterium atoms upon dissociation was obtained together with information about how the available kinetic energy was distributed between the two light fragments. The recombination cross sections as functions of energy in the interval of 1 meV to 0.3 eV in the center-of-mass frame are presented for (SH2+)-S-34. The thermal rate coefficient for the DR of (SH2+)-S-34 was determined to be (4.8 +/- 1.0)x10(-7)(T/300)(-0.72 +/- 0.1) cm(3) s(-1) over this interval.

- Branching ratios and absolute cross sections have been measured for the dissociative recombination of HCS+ and OCS+ at the CRYRING ion storage ring. In the case of OCS+, the channel leading to CO + S ( 83%) dominates, whereas the other exoergic pathways leading to CS + O (14%) and C + SO (3%) are of lesser importance. In the case of HCS+, fracture of the C - S bond is predominant (81%), with the production of H + CS accounting for the remainder (19%). The cross section of the reaction could be fitted by the expressions sigma = 1.41 x 10(-15)E(eV)(-1.11) and 4.47 x 10(-16)E(eV) (-1.14) cm(2) for HCS+ and OCS+, respectively. The derived energy dependences of the thermal reaction rate coefficients can be fitted by k(T) 9.7 x 10(-7)(T/300)(-0.57) and 3.5 x 10(-7)(T/300)(-0.62) cm(3) s(-1) for HCS+ and OCS+, respectively. We use these data to perform model calculations on the HCS+/CS abundance ratio in dark clouds and find that the models using the UMIST and Ohio State University databases have even more difficulty in accounting for the large observed ratio.
