Does Iras 16293–2422 Contain a Hot Core? New Interferometric Results
نویسندگان
چکیده
High angular resolution H2CO line observations have been carried out for the low mass proto-binary star IRAS 16293–2422 using the OVROmillimeter array. Simultaneous continuum observations reveal that the source most probably contains two accretion disks, less than ∼ 250AU in size, through which matter is fed onto the stars. The observations suggest that the binary has cleared most of the material in the inner part of the envelope, out to the binary separation. The H2CO interferometer observations indicate the presence of large scale rotation roughly perpendicular to the large scale CO outflow associated with this source. The H2CO emission is dominated by the compact dense and hot (T > 100K) gas close to the positions of the continuum peaks.

Does IRAS 16293–2422 have a hot core? Chemical inventory and abundance changes in its protostellar environment
A detailed radiative transfer analysis of the observed continuum and molecular line emission toward the deeply embedded young stellar object IRAS 16293–2422 is performed. Accurate molecular abundances and abundance changes with radius are presented. The continuum modelling is used to constrain the temperature and density distributions in the envelope, enabling quantitative estimates of various ...

Arcsecond-resolution spectral observations toward the protobinary system IRAS 16293-2422 at 344 and 354 GHz were conducted using the Submillimeter Array. Complex organic molecules such as CH3OH and HCOOCH3 were detected. Together with the rich organic inventory revealed, it clearly indicates the existence of two, rather than one, compact hot molecular cores (. 400 AU in radius) associated with ...
متن کاملDiscovery of Interstellar Heavy Water
We report the discovery of doubly deuterated water (D2O, heavy water) in the interstellar medium. Using the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope and the Caltech Submillimeter Observatory 10 m telescope, we detected the 110–101 transition of para-D2O at 316.7998 GHz in both absorption and emission toward the protostellar binary system IRAS 16293 2422. Assuming that the D2O exists primarily in the warm ...

Methyl isocyanate (CH3NCO) belongs to a select group of interstellar molecules considered to be relevant precursors in the formation of larger organic compounds, including those with peptide bonds. The molecule has only been detected in a couple of high-mass protostars and potentially on comets. A formation route on icy grains has been postulated for this molecule but experimental evidence is l...

We present high spatial resolution observations of the multiple protostellar system IRAS 16293−2422 using the Submillimeter Array (SMA) at 300 GHz, and the Very Large Array (VLA) at frequencies from 1.5 to 43 GHz. This source was already known to be a binary system with its main components, A and B, separated by ∼ 5′′. The new SMA data now separate source A into two submillimeter continuum comp...
