Trapped H2O in SiO condensate - An explanation for the 3 micron band observed toward the Galactic centerAn SiO condensate containing trapped and adsorbed H2O was produced in the laboratory. The SiO condensate is not a silicate; it is an amorphous silicon suboxide material. The micron absorption of trapped H2O in this condensate matches very closely the 3 micron absorption band of the Galactic center source IRS 7.
