Two important reactions are presented: the recombination of Si2+ and Si3+ ions with atomic hydrogen and helium which is critical in determining the fractional abundances of silicon ions, and the C+ + S -> C+ S+ reaction, fundamental in both carbon and sulphur chemistry. %G English %L hal-00701665 %U https://hal.science/hal-00701665 %~ IN2P3 %~ CNRS %~ UNIV-MONTP2 %~ LUPM %~ MIPS %~ UNIV-MONTPELLIER %~ LUPM_AS %~ UM1-UM2
