First glycine isomer detected in the interstellar medium: glycolamide (NHC(O)CHOH)
Víctor M. Rivilla, Miguel Sanz-Novo, Izaskun Jiménez-Serra +13
We report the first detection in the interstellar medium of a CHON isomer: -glycolamide (NHC(O)CHOH). The exquisite sensitivity at sub-mK levels of an ultr…
The first detection of SiC in the interstellar medium
S. Massalkhi, I. Jiménez-Serra, J. Martín-Pintado +7
We report the first detection of SiC in the interstellar medium. The molecule was identified through six rotational transitions toward G\,+0.6930.027, a molecular cloud loca…
Discovery of the elusive carbonic acid (HOCOOH) in space
Miguel Sanz-Novo, Víctor M. Rivilla, Izaskun Jiménez-Serra +12
After a quarter century since the detection of the last interstellar carboxylic acid, acetic acid (CHCOOH), we report the discovery of a new one, the cis-trans form of carbonic…
Amides inventory towards the G+0.693-0.027 molecular cloud
S. Zeng, V. M. Rivilla, I. Jiménez-Serra +6
Interstellar amides have attracted significant attentions as they are potential precursors for a wide variety of organics essential to life. However, our current understanding of t…
The spatial distribution of an aromatic molecule, C6H5CN, in the cold dark cloud TMC-1
J. Cernicharo, B. Tercero, N. Marcelino +2
We present a highly sensitive 2D line survey of TMC-1 obtained with the Yebes 40m radio telescope in the Q-band (31.13-49.53 GHz). These maps cover a region of 320 arcsec x 320 arc…
A ring-like accretion structure in M87 connecting its black hole and jet
Ru-Sen Lu, Keiichi Asada, Thomas P. Krichbaum +118
The nearby radio galaxy M87 is a prime target for studying black hole accretion and jet formation^{1,2}. Event Horizon Telescope observations of M87 in 2017, at a wavelength of 1.3…
Detection of ethanol, acetone, and propanal in TMC-1: New O-bearing complex organics in cold sources
M. Agundez, J. C. Loison, K. M. Hickson +7
We present the detection of ethanol (C2H5OH), acetone (CH3COCH3), and propanal (C2H5CHO) toward the cyanopolyyne peak of TMC-1. These three O-bearing complex organic molecules are…
J2102+6015: an Intriguing Radio-loud Active Galactic Nucleus in the Early Universe
S. Frey, T. An, K. Gabányi +10
The powerful high-redshift quasar J2102+6015 (at z=4.575) may provide useful information for studying supermassive black hole growth, galaxy evolution and feedback in the early Uni…
