Formation of adducts of CH with Na, Mg and Al metal cations by radiative association

Niyazi Bulut, Octavio Roncero, Maria Mallo +6

The Mg-bearing cations MgCH, MgCH, MgCN, and MgCN have been recently observed in the carbon-rich envelope IRC\,+10216. These species are thought to…

Thioacetaldehyde (CH3CHS) on interstellar ices: a key molecule to unravel two chemical dichotomies in the ISM

María Mallo, Miguel Sanz-Novo, Marcelino Agúndez +6

Thioacetaldehyde (CH3CHS), recently detected in TMC-1, has an abundance approximately 36 times lower than its oxygen analog, acetaldehyde (CH3CHO). This makes the CH3CHS/CH3CHO pai…

Laboratory spectroscopy, theoretical characterization, and astronomical search for syn-propenethial (CH2CHCHS)

Germán Molpeceres, Carlos Cabezas, Marcelino Agúndez +5

We report the laboratory characterization of the higher-energy isomer of propenethial, syn-CH2CHCHS. While the lower-energy isomer, anti-CH2CHCHS, was detected in the interstellar…

Ion-molecule routes towards cycles in TMC-1. An automated study of the C2H4 + CH2CCH+ reaction

María Mallo, Marcelino Agúndez, Carlos Cabezas +3

Cyclopentadiene (c-C5H6) is considered a key molecule in the formation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in the interstellar medium (ISM). The synthesis of PAHs from simpl…

Discovery of interstellar phenalene (-CH): A new piece for the chemical puzzle of PAHs in space

Carlos Cabezas, Marcelino Agúndez, Cristóbal Pérez +10

We present the discovery of the unsubstituted polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) phenalene (-CH) in TMC-1 as part of the QUIJOTE line survey. In spite of the lo…

Detection of the linear SiC and SiC radicals in IRC\,+10216

José Cernicharo, Juan Ramón Pardo, Marcelino Agúndez +6

We detected the linear radicals SiC and SiC toward IRC+10216 using an ultrasensitive line survey gathered with the Yebes 40\,m radio telescope. The derived column d…
