Astronomical Detection of the Interstellar Anion C10H- towards TMC-1 from the GOTHAM Large Program on the GBT

Anthony Remijan, Haley N. Scolati, Andrew M. Burkhardt +13

Using data from the GOTHAM (GBT Observations of TMC-1: Hunting for Aromatic Molecules) survey, we report the first astronomical detection of the C10H- anion. The astronomical obser…

Discovery of Interstellar 2-Cyanoindene (2-CHCN) in GOTHAM Observations of TMC-1

Madelyn L. Sita, P. Bryan Changala, Ci Xue +12

We present laboratory rotational spectroscopy of five isomers of cyanoindene (2-, 4-, 5-, 6-, and 7-cyanoindene) using a cavity Fourier-transform microwave spectrometer operating b…

CORINOS I: JWST/MIRI Spectroscopy and Imaging of a Class 0 protostar IRAS 15398-3359

Yao-Lun Yang, Joel D. Green, Klaus M. Pontoppidan +13

The origin of complex organic molecules (COMs) in young Class 0 protostars has been one of the major questions in astrochemistry and star formation. While COMs are thought to form…

Dense Molecular Clouds in the Crab Supernova Remnant

Alwyn Wootten, Rory O. Bentley, J. Baldwin +7

Molecular emission was imaged with ALMA from numerous components near and within bright H2-emitting knots and absorbing dust globules in the Crab Nebula. These observations provide…

Discovery of the Pure Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon Indene (-CH) with GOTHAM Observations of TMC-1

Andrew M. Burkhardt, Kin Long Kelvin Lee, P. Bryan Changala +8

Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) have long been invoked in the study of interstellar and protostellar sources, but the unambiguous identification of any individual PAH has p…

Detection of Two Interstellar Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons via Spectral Matched Filtering

Brett A. McGuire, Ryan A. Loomis, Andrew M. Burkhardt +12

Ubiquitous unidentified infrared emission bands are seen in many astronomical sources. Although these bands are widely, if not unanimously, attributed to the collective emission fr…
