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…
Early Science from GOTHAM: Project Overview, Methods, and the Detection of Interstellar Propargyl Cyanide (HCCCHCN) in TMC-1
Brett A. McGuire, Andrew M. Burkhardt, Ryan A. Loomis +11
We present an overview of the GOTHAM (GBT Observations of TMC-1: Hunting Aromatic Molecules) Large Program on the Green Bank Telescope. This and a related program were launched to…
Detection of Interstellar HCNC and an Investigation of Isocyanopolyyne Chemistry under TMC-1 Conditions
Ci Xue, Eric R. Willis, Ryan A. Loomis +10
We report an astronomical detection of HCNC for the first time in the interstellar medium with the Green Bank Telescope toward the TMC-1 molecular cloud with a minimum signific…
FAUST I. The hot corino at the heart of the prototypical Class I protostar L1551 IRS5
E. Bianchi, C. J. Chandler, C. Ceccarelli +63
The study of hot corinos in Solar-like protostars has been so far mostly limited to the Class 0 phase, hampering our understanding of their origin and evolution. In addition, recen…
