CON-quest: Searching for the most obscured galaxy nuclei

N. Falstad, S. Aalto, S. König +28

Some luminous and ultraluminous infrared galaxies (LIRGs and ULIRGs) host extremely compact and dusty nuclei. The intense infrared radiation arising from warm dust in these sources…

On the effects of UV photons/X-rays on the chemistry of the Sgr B2 cloud

J. Armijos-Abendaño, J. Martín-Pintado, E. López +7

The lines of HOC, HCO and CO are considered good tracers of photon-dominated regions (PDRs) and X-ray dominated regions. We study these tracers towards regions of the Sgr B…

Low frequency view of GRB 190114C reveals time varying shock micro-physics

K. Misra, L. Resmi, D. A. Kann +25

We present radio and optical afterglow observations of the TeV-bright long Gamma Ray Burst (GRB) 190114C at a redshift of , which was detected by the MAGIC telescope. Our…

Abundant Z-cyanomethanimine in the interstellar medium: paving the way to the synthesis of adenine

V. M. Rivilla, J. Martín-Pintado, I. Jiménez-Serra +6

We report the first detection in the interstellar medium of the Z-isomer of cyanomethanimine (HNCHCN), an HCN dimer proposed as precursor of adenine. We identified six transitions…

Molecular gas in the northern nucleus of Mrk273: Physical and chemical properties of the disk and its outflow

R. Aladro, S. König, S. Aalto +12

Aiming to characterise the properties of the molecular gas in the ultraluminous infrared galaxy Mrk273 and its outflow, we used the NOEMA interferometer to image the dense gas mole…

Study of diffuse HII regions potentially forming part of the gas streams around Sgr A*

J. Armijos-Abendaño, E. López, J. Martín-Pintado +8

We present a study of diffuse extended ionised gas toward three clouds located in the Galactic Centre (GC). One line of sight (LOS) is toward the 20 km s cloud (LOS0.11)…

Detection of CH+, SH+, and their 13C- and 34S- isotopologues toward PKS1830-211

S. Muller, H. S. P. M"uller, J. H. Black +13

The z=0.89 molecular absorber toward PKS1830-211 provides us with the opportunity to probe the chemical and physical properties of the interstellar medium in the disk of a galaxy a…

Exploring the molecular chemistry and excitation in obscured luminous infrared galaxies: An ALMA mm-wave spectral scan of NGC 4418

F. Costagliola, K. Sakamoto, S. Muller +7

We obtained an ALMA Cycle 0 spectral scan of the dusty LIRG NGC 4418, spanning a total of 70.7 GHz in bands 3, 6, and 7. We use a combined local thermal equilibrium (LTE) and non-L…

A high-resolution mm and cm study of the obscured LIRG NGC 4418 - A compact obscured nucleus fed by in-falling gas?

F. Costagliola, S. Aalto, K. Sakamoto +4

The aim of this study is to constrain the dynamics, structure and feeding of the compact nucleous of NGC4418, and to reveal the nature of the main hidden power source: starburst or…

Tracing high density gas in M 82 and NGC 4038

E. Bayet, C. Lintott, S. Viti +4

We present the first detection of CS in the Antennae galaxies towards the NGC 4038 nucleus, as well as the first detections of two high-J (5-4 and 7-6) CS lines in the center of M…

Organic Molecules in the Galactic Center. Hot Core Chemistry without Hot Cores

M. A. Requena-Torres, J. Martín-Pintado, A. Rodríguez-Franco +3

We study the origin of large abundances of complex organic molecules in the Galactic center (GC). We carried out a systematic study of the complex organic molecules CH3OH, C2H5OH,…
