Species abundance comparison between the fiducial MHD model and the lower temperature model. The starting time of the figure has been set to 5×l04 years to show a closer detail of the major changes. Left: fiducial MHD model. In the fiducial case, we observed that the chemistry is mostly inherited from the ices. Once the molecules sublimate (at ~5.4×l04 years) their abundances remain almost constant, except for CS2 and S2. Right: lower temperature model. In this model, different molecules sublimate at different temperatures, and some need a few thousand years to stabilize their gas-phase abundance (e.g., CS2, SO, SO2 and H2CS). After ~5.8×l04 yr, H2S abundance starts to fall, while H2S2 and S2 start to form. In particular, S2 increases its abundance abruptly by several orders of magnitude, reaching an abundance of ~10–6, which is 104 times more than in the fiducial case.
