Revisiting rotationally excited CH at radio wavelengths: A case study towards W51
Arshia M. Jacob, Meera Nandakumar, Nirupam Roy +7
Ever since they were first detected in the interstellar medium, the radio wavelength (3.3 GHz) hyperfine-structure splitting transitions in the rotational ground state of CH have b…
Maser Activity of Organic Molecules toward Sgr B2(N)
Ci Xue, Anthony Remijan, Alexandre Faure +5
At centimeter wavelengths, single-dish observations have suggested that the Sagittarius (Sgr) B2 molecular cloud at the Galactic Center hosts weak maser emission from several organ…
NLTE modelling of water-rich exoplanet atmospheres. Cooling and heating rates
A. García Muñoz, A. Asensio Ramos, A. Faure
The hydrogen and water molecules respond very differently to the collisional-radiative processes taking place in planetary atmospheres. Naturally, the question arises whether H2O-r…
H2CO and CS in diffuse clouds: Excitation and abundance
Maryvonne Gerin, Harvey Liszt, Jerome Pety +1
To provide constraints on the chemical processes responsible for the observed columns of organic species, we used NOEMA to observe the sight line toward NRAO150 in the 2mm spectral…
The nitrogen isotopic ratio of HC3N towards the L1544 prestellar core
P. Hily-Blant, A. Faure, C. Vastel +3
The origin of the heavily fractionated reservoir of nitrogen in comets remains an issue in the theory of their formation and hence of the solar system. Whether the fractionated res…
NH_3(1_0-0_0) in the pre-stellar core L1544
P. Caselli, L. Bizzocchi, E. Keto +11
Pre-stellar cores represent the initial conditions in the process of star and planet formation, therefore it is important to study their physical and chemical structure. Because of…
Weak maser emission of methyl formate toward Sagittarius B2(N) in the Green Bank Telescope PRIMOS Survey
Alexandre Faure, Anthony J. Remijan, Krzysztof Szalewicz +1
A non-LTE radiative transfer treatment of cis-methyl formate (HCOOCH3) rotational lines is presented for the first time using a set of theoretical collisional rate coefficients. Th…
The IRAM-30m line survey of the Horsehead PDR: III. High abundance of complex (iso-)nitrile molecules in UV-illuminated gas
P. Gratier, J. Pety, V. Guzmán +4
Complex (iso-)nitrile molecules, such as CH3CN and HC3N, are relatively easily detected in our Galaxy and in other galaxies. We constrain their chemistry through observations of tw…
