New detections of HC${}_5$N toward hot cores associated with 6.7 GHz methanol masers

Abstract

We present new detections of cyanodiacetylene (HC${}_5$N) toward hot molecular cores, observed with the Tidbinbilla 34 m radio telescope (DSS-34). In a sample of 79 hot molecular cores, HC${}_5$N was detected towards 35. These results are counter to the expectation that long chain cyanopolyynes, such as HC${}_5$N, are not typically found in hot molecular cores, unlike their shorter chain counterpart HC${}_3$N. However it is consistent with recent models which suggest HC${}_5$N may exist for a limited period during the evolution of hot molecular cores.
