Complex Organic Molecules in Protostars with ALMA Spectral Surveys (COMPASS) -- IV. Methyl cyanide isotopologues toward BHR71-IRS1
P. Nazari, A. Coutens, J. K. Jørgensen +16
Methyl cyanide is one of the most abundant nitrogen-bearing complex organic molecules observed in the gas phase around low- and high-mass protostars. However, very few observations…
Complex Organic Molecules in Protostars with ALMA Spectral Surveys (COMPASS): I. Overview of the ALMA Large Program
J. K. Jørgensen, A. Coutens, M. N. Drozdovskaya +27
It remains a fundamental research question in astrochemistry to characterize the inventory of complex organic molecules formed during the early stages of star formation, which may…
Complex Organic Molecules in Protostars with ALMA Spectral Surveys (COMPASS) III. CHOH isotopic fractionation in the low-mass protostar BHR71-IRS1
A. Coutens, F. Cruz-Sáenz de Miera, J. K. Jørgensen +26
[Abridged] Methanol is a complex organic molecule detected in both ice and gas toward star-forming regions. Due to its high abundance, its rarer isotopologues, including the deuter…
Complex Organic Molecules in Protostars with ALMA Spectral Surveys (COMPASS) VII. First interstellar detection of fully deuterated methanol
A. Belloche, S. Spezzano, A. Coutens +12
There have been no robust identifications of fully deuterated methanol, CD3OD, in the interstellar medium (ISM) to date. Our goal is continue the search for CD3OD in star-forming r…
