Spectral imaging of the Central Molecular Zone in multiple 3-mm molecular lines
Spectral imaging of the Central Molecular Zone in multiple 3-mm molecular lines
We have mapped 20 spectral lines in the Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) around the Galactic Centre, emitting from 85.3 to 93.3 GHz. This work used the 22-m Mopra radio telescope in Australia, equipped with the 8-GHz bandwidth University of New South Wales-Mopra Spectrometer (UNSW-MOPS) digital filter bank, obtaining ∼2 km …
