Observations of the Goldreich-Kylafis effect in star-forming regions with XPOL at the IRAM 30m telescope

Jan Forbrich, Helmut Wiesemeyer, Clemens Thum +2

The Goldreich-Kylafis (GK) effect causes certain molecular line emission to be weakly linearly polarized, e.g., in the presence of a magnetic field. Compared to polarized dust emis…

Rotational spectroscopy of isotopic vinyl cyanide, HC=CHCN, in the laboratory and in space

Holger S. P. Müller, Arnaud Belloche, Karl M. Menten +2

The rotational spectra of singly substituted C and N isotopic species of vinyl cyanide have been studied in natural abundances between 64 and 351 GHz. In combination…

Spectral imaging of the Sagittarius B2 region in multiple 3-mm molecular lines with the Mopra telescope

P. A. Jones, M. G. Burton, M. R. Cunningham +6

Using the Mopra telescope, we have undertaken a 3-mm spectral-line imaging survey of a 5 x 5 arcmin^2 area around Sgr B2. We covered almost the complete spectral the range from 81.…

The search for complex molecules in the ISM: a complete 3 mm line survey of Sgr B2-N and -M

A. Belloche, C. Comito, C. Hieret +3

Famous for the extraordinary richness of its molecular content, the Sgr B2 molecular cloud complex is the prime target in the long-standing search for ever more complex species. We…

Detection of amino acetonitrile in Sgr B2(N)

A. Belloche, K. M. Menten, C. Comito +5

Amino acids are building blocks of proteins and therefore key ingredients for the origin of life. The simplest amino acid, glycine, has long been searched for in the interstellar m…
