The rich interstellar reservoir of dinitriles: Detection of malononitrile and maleonitrile in TMC-1
M. Agundez, C. Bermudez, C. Cabezas +7
While the nitrile group is by far the most prevalent one among interstellar molecules, the existence of interstellar dinitriles (molecules containing two -CN groups) has recently b…
Discovery of HC3O+ in space: The chemistry of O-bearing species in TMC-1
J. Cernicharo, N. Marcelino, M. Agundez +5
Using the Yebes 40m and IRAM 30m radio telescopes, we detected a series of harmonically related lines with a rotational constant B0=4460.590 +/- 0.001 MHz and a distortion constant…
Discovery of HC4NC in TMC-1: A study of the isomers of HC3N, HC5N, and HC7N
J. Cernicharo, N. Marcelino, M. Agundez +4
We present a study of the isocyano isomers of the cyanopolyynes HC3N, HC5N, and HC7N in TMC-1 and IRC+10216 carried out with the Yebes 40m radio telescope. This study has enabled u…
Interstellar nitrile anions: Detection of C3N- and C5N- in TMC-1
J. Cernicharo, N. Marcelino, J. R. Pardo +5
We report on the first detection of C3N- and C5N- towards the cold dark core TMC-1 in the Taurus region, using the Yebes 40 m telescope. The observed C3N/C3N- and C5N/C5N- abundanc…
Discovery of the first Ca-bearing molecule in space: CaNC
J. Cernicharo, L. Velilla-Prieto, M. Agúndez +6
We report on the detection of calcium isocyanide, CaNC, in the carbon-rich evolved star IRC+10216. We derived a column density for this species of (2.00.5)10 cm…
