Far-infrared laboratory spectroscopy of aminoacetonitrile and first interstellar detection of its vibrationally excited transitions

M. Melosso, A. Belloche, M. -A. Martin-Drumel +8

Aminoacetonitrile, a molecule detected in the interstellar medium only towards the star-forming region Sagittarius B2 (Sgr B2) thus far, is considered an important prebiotic specie…

Interstellar glycolamide: A comprehensive rotational study and an astronomical search in Sgr B2(N)

M. Sanz-Novo, A. Belloche, J. L. Alonso +6

Glycolamide is a glycine isomer and also one of the simplest derivatives of acetamide (e.g., one hydrogen atom is replaced with a hydroxyl group), which is a known interstellar mol…

Questioning the spatial origin of complex organic molecules in young protostars with the CALYPSO survey

A. Belloche, A. J. Maury, S. Maret +12

Complex organic molecules (COMs) have been detected in a few Class 0 protostars but their origin is not well understood. Going beyond studies of individual objects, we want to inve…

The dynamically young outflow of the Class 0 protostar Cha-MMS1

L. A. Busch, A. Belloche, S. Cabrit +2

On the basis of its low luminosity, its chemical composition, and the absence of a large-scale outflow, the dense core Cha-MMS1 located in the Chamaeleon I molecular cloud was prop…

Re-exploring Molecular Complexity with ALMA (ReMoCA): Interstellar detection of urea

A. Belloche, R. T. Garrod, H. S. P. Müller +4

Urea, NH2C(O)NH2, is a molecule of great importance in organic chemistry and biology. Two searches for urea in the interstellar medium were reported in the past, but neither were c…

The complex chemistry of hot cores in Sagittarius B2(N): Influence of cosmic-ray ionization and thermal history

M. Bonfand, A. Belloche, R. T. Garrod +4

As the number of complex organic molecules (COMs) detected in the interstellar medium increases, it becomes important to place meaningful constraints on the formation pathways of t…
