Scientific paper

The author argues that the high HCS+/CS ratio observed in dense interstellar clouds is most likely due to an unusually low reaction rate coefficient for the dissociative recombination of HCS+. The HCS+/CS ratio also gives information on the source of electrons in these clouds. The evidence indicates that metal ions rather than species such as C+ and HCO+ are the dominant positive ions in most interstellar clouds although some exceptions to this rule may exist.
