Víctor delivers an engaging presentation on astrochemical ice analogues at the 2nd Astrochemistry Workshop in Rio de Janeiro
The KAIROS Research at the University of Kent proudly recognises the contribution of Víctor Bonfim at the 2nd Astrochemistry Workshop, held in Rio de Janeiro on 9th July 2024. This workshop served as a vibrant platform for advancing research and fostering collaboration among astrochemists in Brazil and beyond.
Víctor’s presentation, titled “Influence of Temperature on the IR Spectrum of CO₂ Trapped in Astrophysical Ice Analogues”, explored the impact of temperature on the infrared spectrum of CO₂ in astrophysical ice analogues. This work highlights the intricate interplay between molecular interactions and environmental conditions in astrochemical processes, offering valuable insights into the evolution of ices in interstellar and planetary environments.
The 2nd Astrochemistry Workshop brought together researchers from diverse disciplines to discuss the latest developments in astrochemistry, with a particular emphasis on experimental and theoretical approaches to understanding the complex chemistry of interstellar space.
Victor’s contribution underscored the importance of interdisciplinary research in uncovering the secrets of the cosmos. His work, which bridges laboratory experiments and theoretical simulations, exemplifies the mission of KAIROS to push the boundaries of astrochemical knowledge.
KAIROS congratulates Victor for his impactful presentation and looks forward to supporting his continued research in this exciting and rapidly evolving field.
