Detection of Two Interstellar Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons via Spectral Matched Filtering
Brett A. McGuire, Ryan A. Loomis, Andrew M. Burkhardt +12
Ubiquitous unidentified infrared emission bands are seen in many astronomical sources. Although these bands are widely, if not unanimously, attributed to the collective emission fr…
Interstellar Detection of 2-Cyanocyclopentadiene, CHCN, a Second Five-Membered Ring Toward TMC-1
Kin Long Kelvin Lee, P. Bryan Changala, Ryan A. Loomis +6
Using radio observations with the Green Bank Telescope, evidence has now been found for a second five-membered ring in the dense cloud Taurus Molecular Cloud-1 (TMC-1). Based on ad…
Discovery of Interstellar trans-cyanovinylacetylene (HCCCH=CHCN) and vinylcyanoacetylene (HC=CHCN) in GOTHAM Observations of TMC-1
Kin Long Kelvin Lee, Ryan A. Loomis, Andrew M. Burkhardt +8
We report the discovery of two unsaturated organic species, trans-(E)-cyanovinylacetylene and vinylcyanoacetylene, using the second data release of the GOTHAM deep survey towards T…
FAUST II. Discovery of a Secondary Outflow in IRAS 15398-3359: Variability in Outflow Direction during the Earliest Stage of Star Formation?
Yuki Okoda, Yoko Oya, Logan Francis +66
We have observed the very low-mass Class 0 protostar IRAS 15398-3359 at scales ranging from 50 au to 1800 au, as part of the ALMA Large Program FAUST. We uncover a linear feature,…
Interstellar Detection of the Highly Polar Five-Membered Ring Cyanocyclopentadiene
Michael C. McCarthy, Kin Long Kelvin Lee, Ryan A. Loomis +10
Much like six-membered rings, five-membered rings are ubiquitous in organic chemistry, frequently serving as the building blocks for larger molecules, including many of biochemical…
An Investigation of Spectral Line Stacking Techniques and Application to the Detection of HCN
Ryan A. Loomis, Andrew M. Burkhardt, Christopher N. Shingledecker +10
As the inventory of interstellar molecules continues to grow, the gulf between small species, whose individual rotational lines can be observed with radio telescopes, and large one…
