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…
First glycine isomer detected in the interstellar medium: glycolamide (NHC(O)CHOH)
Víctor M. Rivilla, Miguel Sanz-Novo, Izaskun Jiménez-Serra +13
We report the first detection in the interstellar medium of a CHON isomer: -glycolamide (NHC(O)CHOH). The exquisite sensitivity at sub-mK levels of an ultr…
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…
Discovery of the elusive carbonic acid (HOCOOH) in space
Miguel Sanz-Novo, Víctor M. Rivilla, Izaskun Jiménez-Serra +12
After a quarter century since the detection of the last interstellar carboxylic acid, acetic acid (CHCOOH), we report the discovery of a new one, the cis-trans form of carbonic…
Amides inventory towards the G+0.693-0.027 molecular cloud
S. Zeng, V. M. Rivilla, I. Jiménez-Serra +6
Interstellar amides have attracted significant attentions as they are potential precursors for a wide variety of organics essential to life. However, our current understanding of t…
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…
