Detection of vibrationally excited C6H in the cold prestellar core TMC-1 with the QUIJOTE line survey
J. Cernicharo, R. Fuentetaja, M. Agundez +4
In this work, we present the detection of twelve doublets with quantum numbers of N=12-11 to N=17-16 of the v11 vibrationally excited state of C6H towards TMC-1. This marks the fir…
Aromatic cycles are widespread in cold clouds
M. Agundez, N. Marcelino, B. Tercero +1
We report the detection of large hydrocarbon cycles toward several cold dense clouds. We observed four sources (L1495B, Lupus-1A, L483, and L1527) in the Q band (31-50 GHz) using t…
Laboratory and astronomical discovery of the cyanovinyl radical H2CCCN
C. Cabezas, J. Tang, M. Agúndez +9
We report the first laboratory and interstellar detection of the alpha-cyano vinyl radical (H2CCCN). This species was produced in the laboratory by an electric discharge of a gas m…
The abundance and excitation of molecular anions in interstellar clouds
M. Agundez, N. Marcelino, B. Tercero +2
We report new observations of molecular anions with the Yebes 40m and IRAM 30m telescopes toward the cold dense clouds TMC-1 CP, Lupus-1A, L1527, L483, L1495B, and L1544. We detect…
Discovery of HCCCH in TMC-1
W. G. D. P. Silva, J. Cernicharo, S. Schlemmer +13
Based on a novel laboratory method, 14 mm-wave lines of the molecular ion HCCCH have been measured in high resolution, and the spectroscopic constants of this asymmetric ro…
The spatial distribution of an aromatic molecule, C6H5CN, in the cold dark cloud TMC-1
J. Cernicharo, B. Tercero, N. Marcelino +2
We present a highly sensitive 2D line survey of TMC-1 obtained with the Yebes 40m radio telescope in the Q-band (31.13-49.53 GHz). These maps cover a region of 320 arcsec x 320 arc…
