Molecular clouds and cloud cores CO(1-0) Taurus-Auriga NH3 cores (Benson & Myers 1989) Caselli et al. 2002a 5 pc TMC-2 N2H+(1-0) 13CO Mizuno et al. 1995 C18O Onishi et al. 1998 M ~ 5 M 0.1 pc M ~ 5x104 M
HC3N(4-3) at 36.4 GHz CO(1-0) ALMA Q-band primary beam: 2.3 angular resolution: 8.4 (compact configurstion)
Evidences of freeze-out: deuterium fractionation Velocity gradients and specific angular momentum in nearby cores Crapsi et al. 2007 VLA VLA PdBI 2 km s-1 pc-1 9 km s-1 pc-1 L(NH3) ~ 5x1021 cm2 s-1 L(NH2D) ~ 3x1020 cm2 s-1 The loss of L towards the small scales is consistent with observations in more evolved sources (Belloche et al. 2002).
Evidences of freeze-out: deuterium fractionation Dense core studies in high-mass star forming regions Fragmentation at the earliest stages of massive star formation: ~ 0.04 pc cores have been resolved with the VLA towards G28.34+0.06 (1.7 at 4.8 kpc). Similar studies could be done using HC3N(4-3) [critical density a few times larger that that of NH3(1,1)]. Zhang, Wang, Pillai & Rathborne (2009)
Early- and late-type molecules HC3N , N2 N2H+ Suzuki et al. 1992
N2 Early- and late-type molecules tCO ~ nC/[n(H2)] ~ 105yr Sternberg & Dalgarno 1995 CO HC3N , N2 N + H3+ NH+ + H2 N2H+ N + OH NO + H NO + N N2 + O tN2~ 106 yr in UV-shielded clouds
The importance of the environment NH3 and CCS in Perseus cores: CCS almost absent in clustered proto- and pre-stellar cores Chemical evolution depends on the environment. Foster et al. 2009
The importance of the environment The majority of the cores are embedded in molecular clouds “chemically young” material continue to flow in during core contraction and collapse. C18O(2-1) CCS ~0.05-0.3 km/s within 0.2 pc (Swift, Welch & Di Francesco 2005) ~0.05-0.3 km/s within 0.3 pc (Schnee, Caselli, Goodman et al. 2007)
HC3N(4-3) as temperature probe Well separated hyperfine components allow accurate determination of intrinsic v. Fuller & Myers 1993
N2 N2D+ + H2 H2D+ + CO DCO+ + H2 Deuterium Fractionation at T < 20 K H3+ + HD H2D+ + H2 + 230 K Watson 1974 Millar et al. 1989 H2D+ / H3+increases if the abundance of gas phase neutral species (in particular CO) decreases(Dalgarno & Lepp 1984; Roberts & Millar 2000)
Deuterium Fractionation at T < 70 K (Millar, Bennet & Herbst 1989; Roueff, Parise & Herbst 2007) CH3+ + HD CH2D+ + H2 + 390 K C2H2+ + HD C2HD+ + H2 + 550 K CH2D+ + N DCN+ + H2 DCN+ + H2 DCNH+ + H DCNH+ + e- DCN + H This can explain the large DCN/HCN abundance ratio observed toward the Orion Bar (~1%; Leurini et al. 2006) and toward the Orion Hot Core (0.1-0.3%; Schilke et al. 1992; Roberts et al. 2002).
Deuterated molecules in Band 1 DC3N(4-3) and (5-4) HC3N(4-3) Not much follow up since the 80s (Howe et al. 1994).. DC3N may preferentially trace recently cooled material in dense regions and its detail mapping could help in understanding core formation. Langer et al. 1980 DC3N/HC3N ~ 0.05-0.1
Deuterated molecules in Q-band With ALMA Band 1: DC5N(13-12) (17-16) HC5N(12-11) (16-15) …Among other things, cyanopolyynes (HC2n+1N) are thought to have links to the carbenes (H2Cn) found in carbonaceous chondrites. Their detection in protoplanetary disks would be interesting… Schoerb et al. 1981 DC5N/HC5N ~ 0.02
S-bearing molecules H2CS(101-000) - 34.3 GHz OCS(3-2) - 36.5 GHz HDCS(101-000) - 31.0 GHz CS(1-0) - 49.0 GHz C34S(1-0) - 48.2 GHz Together with other observations of S-bearing species and deuterium fractionation in H2S (HDS, van Dishoeck et al. 1995; D2S, Vastel et al. 2003), thioformaldehyde will help to put constraints on Sulphur chemistry. Marcelino, Cernicharo et al. 2005

Amino acetonitrile in SgrB2(N) (Belloche et al. 2008) H H O C C N H H O H Glycine - the simplest amino acid Complex Organic Molecules Known Interstellar Molecules (Total: 151 as of today)
How do complex molecules form? (e.g. Garrod et al. 2008) protostellar dust heating, X-rays (mantle processing and evaporation) dust (mantles and cores) sputtering + vaporization along protostellar outflows
How do complex molecules form? But Marcelino et al. (2007) found propylene (CH2CHCH3) in the cold core TMC-1 (also rich in cyanopolyynes)… Observations in Band 1 (with several hydrocarbons and cyanopolyynes transitions - Kaifu et al. 2004) could help in understanding interstellar gas-phase and surface processes. Among other interesting transitions: C2H5CN(111-000) + isotopologues, many low energy O,C,N-bearing complex molecules (Hollis et al.) + glycine (NH2CH2COOH) transitions…
