Scientific paper

For about a decade, we have had a NASA-funded Laboratory Astrophysics program to measure rates of ion-neutral reactions that could be important in the interstellar medium. As a result of our experimental program, we are able to provide data to refine chemical models and assess which reactions and reaction products are likely to be important in the ISM. While this program was initiated to help constrain the search for the carriers of the diffuse interstellar bands (DIBs), we have branched out to other reactions involving both positive and negative ions of interstellar interest. We present here a summary of past results and a look forward to our plans for future experiments.
