A SEARCH FOR INTERSTELLAR CARBON-CHAIN ALCOHOL HC4OH IN STAR-FORMING REGION L1527 AND DARK CLOUD TMC-1

Abstract: We report a sensitive search for the rotational transitions of the carbon-chain alcohol HC 4 OH in the frequency range 21.2-46.7 GHz in the star-forming region L1527 and the dark cloud TMC-1. The motivation was laboratory detection of HC 4 OH by microwave spectroscopy. Despite achieving rms noise levels of several millikelvin in the antenna temperature using the 45 m telescope at Nobeyama Radio Observatory, the detection was not successful, leading to 3σ upper limits corresponding to the column densities of 2.… Show more

“…Although this trend was not reproduced by the chemical model, Quan et al later explained it by their new model. On the other hand, Araki et al searched for HC 4 OH in L1527 on the basis of their laboratory detection of this molecule. HC 4 OH is a unique molecule having both carbon-chain character and alcohol character.…”

“…On the other hand, a few molecules in an interstellar cloud can have huge column densities compared with other molecules. For example, the column density of C 4 H in the low-mass star-forming region L1527 is 1.0 × 10 14 cm −2 (Araki et al 2012), although those of other carbon-chain molecules are 10 11 -10 13 cm −2 (Sakai et al 2008). Krełowski et al (2011) Between DIBs at 6159 and 6251 Å, the strength ratio, which might be attributed to the (Maier et al 2011, Achkasova et al 2006, Birza et al 2005, is variable in 49 clouds (Krełowski et al 2011).…”
