Discovery of linear propadienone: Study of the chemistry of linear and cyclic HCO and HCS in TMC-1

G. Esplugues, J. C. Loison, M. Agúndez +4

We report the first detection in space of propadienone, the linear isomer (l-HCO) of cyclopropenone (c-HCO). We also report the first detection of the isotopologue…

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…

Piecing together formic acid isomerism in dark clouds. Detection of cis-formic acid in TMC-1 and astrochemical modeling

G. Molpeceres, M. Agúndez, M. Mallo +6

The presence of molecular isomers in interstellar environments has become a topic of growing interest within the astrochemical community. Contrary to predictions based on thermodyn…

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…

First detection of HS2 in a cold dark cloud

G. Esplugues, M. Agúndez, G. Molpeceres +5

We report the first detection of HS2 towards the cold dark cloud TMC-1. This is the first observation of a chemical species containing more than one sulphur atom in this type of so…

Conformational isomerism of methyl formate: new detections of the higher-energy trans conformer and theoretical insights

Miguel Sanz-Novo, Germán Molpeceres, Víctor M. Rivilla +1

In recent astrochemical studies it has become crucial to study all the complete conformational panorama of the molecule, some of which are potentially detectable in the interstella…
