Molecule-dependent Abundance Behavior of Oxygen-bearing Complex Organics in High-Mass Star-Forming Regions: A Uniform 50-source Survey
Xuefang Xu, Mingwei He, Qian Gou +10
We present a uniform IRAM-30\,m survey analysis of four oxygen-bearing complex organic molecules (COMs), methanol (CHOH), acetaldehyde (CHCHO), methyl formate (CHOCHO),…
The evolution of C4H and c-C3H2 in molecular cores
Yijia Liu, Junzhi Wang, Ningyu Tang +8
Linear C4H and cyclic c-C3H2, as small unsaturated hydrocarbons, are the key precursors to complex organic molecules and are critical components of the interstellar medium. We pres…
CH3CCH as a thermometer in warm molecular gas
Yuqiang Li, Junzhi Wang, Juan Li +9
Kinetic temperature is a fundamental parameter in molecular clouds. Symmetric top molecules, such as NH and CHCCH, are often used as thermometers. However, at high temperat…
Widespread Hot Molecular Gas Heated by Shear-induced Turbulence in the Galactic Center
Juan Li, Junzhi Wang, Zhiqiang Shen +13
We observed NH3 metastable inversion lines from (3, 3) to (18, 18) toward G0.66-0.13 in the Galactic center with the Shanghai Tianma 65m radio telescope and Yebes 40 m telescope. H…
NN abundance ratio toward massive star-forming regions with different Galactic distances
Chang Ruan, Junzhi Wang, Chao Ou +2
The abundance ratio of NN is, in principle, a powerful tool for tracing stellar nucleosynthesis. This work aims to measure and analyze (N/N)($^…
The deuterium fractionation of NH in massive star-forming regions
Yuqiang Li, Junzhi Wang, Juan Li +6
Deuteration is sensitive to environmental conditions in star-forming regions. To investigate NHD chemistry, we compared the spatial distribution of ortho-NHD $1_{11}^s-1_{0…
