Cyanopolyyne Chemistry around Massive Young Stellar Objects

Cyanopolyyne Chemistry around Massive Young Stellar Objects

Abstract Recent radio astronomical observations have revealed that HC 5 N, the second shortest cyanopolyyne (HC 2 n +1 N), is abundant around some massive young stellar objects (MYSOs), which is not predicted by classical carbon-chain chemistry. For example, the observed HC 5 N abundance toward the G28.28−0.36 MYSO is …
