The abundance of 28Si32S, 29Si32S, 28Si34S, and 30Si32S in the inner layers of the envelope of IRC+10216

J. P. Fonfria, J. Cernicharo, M. J. Richter +3

We present high spectral resolution mid-IR observations of SiS towards the C-rich AGB star IRC+10216 carried out with the Texas Echelon-cross-Echelle Spectrograph mounted on the NA…

The peculiar distribution of CH3CN in IRC+10216 seen by ALMA

M. Agundez, J. Cernicharo, G. Quintana-Lacaci +4

IRC+10216 is a circumstellar envelope around a carbon-rich evolved star which contains a large variety of molecules. According to interferometric observations, molecules are distri…

Discovery of SiCSi in IRC+10216: A missing link between gas and dust carriers of SiC bonds

J. Cernicharo, M. C. McCarthy, C. A. Gottlieb +13

We report the discovery in space of a disilicon species, SiCSi, from observations between 80 and 350 GHz with the IRAM 30m radio telescope. Owing to the close coordination between…

Si-bearing molecules towards IRC+10216: ALMA unveils the molecular envelope of CWLeo

L. Velilla Prieto, J. Cernicharo, G. Quintana-Lacaci +9

We report the detection during the ALMA Cycle 0 of SiS rotational lines in high-vibrational states as well as SiO and SiC lines in their ground vibrational state, towards IRC+1…

Molecular ions in the O-rich evolved star OH231.8+4.2: HCO,HCO and first detection of SO, NH, and HO

C. Sánchez Contreras, L. Velilla Prieto, M. Agúndez +8

OH 231.8+4.2, a bipolar outflow around a Mira-type variable star, displays a unique molecular richness amongst circumstellar envelopes (CSEs) around O-rich AGB and post-AGB stars.…
