We report the first identification in space of HC$_3$N$^+$, the simplest member of the family of cyanopolyyne cations. Three rotational transitions with half-integer quantum numbers from $J$=7/2 to 11/2 have been observed with the Yebes 40m…
Context. HC3N is a molecule that is mainly associated with Galactic star-forming regions, but it has also been detected in extragalactic environments. Aims. To present the first extragalactic survey of HC3N, when combining earlier data from…
We present our ALMA multi-transition molecular line observational results for the ultraluminous infrared galaxy, IRAS 20551-4250, which is known to contain a luminous buried AGN and shows detectable vibrationally excited (v2=1f) HCN and HNC…
A spectral survey of methyl acetylene (CH3CCH) was conducted toward the hot molecular core/outflow G331.512-0.103. Our APEX observations allowed the detection of 41 uncontaminated rotational lines of CH3CCH in the frequency range between…
We investigated the inner buried nucleus of a nearby luminous infrared galaxy NGC 4418 using high-resolution spectroscopy of fundamental carbon monoxide (CO) ro-vibrational absorptions around $4.67 \mu$m for the first time. This method…
Vibrationally excited molecules with sub-mm rotational transitions are potentially excellent probes of physical conditions near protostars. This study uses observations of the v=1 and v=2 ro-vibrational modes of HCN (4-3) to probe this…
We report on Herschel/PACS observations of absorption lines of OH+, H2O+ and H3O+ in NGC 4418 and Arp 220. Excited lines of OH+ and H2O+ with E_lower of at least 285 and \sim200 K, respectively, are detected in both sources, indicating…
As a work in progress, results from a chemical and physical analysis of molecular cores in early evolutionary stages concerning star formation are presented. Using archival data from the Atacama Large Millimeter Array (ALMA), a sample of 37…
The abundance ratio of consecutive members of the cyanopolyynes family has been explored in CRL618 using data acquired in a complete line survey covering the frequency range 81-356 GHz. The Jup range explored for the different molecules is…
Recent observations have shown that Nitrogen-bearing complex organic species are present in large quantities in star-forming regions. Thus, investigating the N-bearing species in a hot molecular core, such as G10.47+0.03, is crucial to…
We have analyzed Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array Band 6 data of the hyper-compact H$_{\rm {II}}$ region G24.78+0.08 A1 (G24 HC H$_{\rm {II}}$) and report the detection of vibrationally-excited lines of HC$_{3}$N ($v_{7}=2$,…
Using ALMA data, we have studied the HC$_3$N and continuum emission in the starburst ring (SB ring) and the circumnuclear disc (CND) of the SB/AGN composite galaxy NGC 1068. We have detected emission from vibrationally excited HC$_3$N…
We obtained high resolution (0."25 to 0."90) observations of HCN and HCO+ J=3-2 of the ultraluminous QSO galaxy Mrk231 with the IRAM Plateau de Bure Interferometer. We find luminous HCN and HCO+ 3-2 emission in the main disk and we detect…
We investigate the molecular gas properties of a sample of 23 galaxies in order to find and test chemical signatures of galaxy evolution and to compare them to IR evolutionary tracers. Observation at 3 mm wavelengths were obtained with the…
We present Submillimeter Array observations of the massive star-forming region IRAS 20126+4104 in the millimeter continuum and in several molecular line transitions. With the SMA data, we have detected nine molecular transitions, including…
The galaxy NGC 4418 harbours a compact ($<20$ pc) core with a very high bolometric luminosity ($\sim10^{11}$L$_\odot$). As most of the galaxy's energy output comes from this small region, it is of interest to determine what fuels this…
We present the first unbiased molecular line survey towards an extragalactic source, namely the nuclear region of the starburst galaxy NGC 253. The scan covers the frequency band from 129.1 to 175.2 GHz, i.e. most of the 2mm atmospheric…
Based on measurements with the Effelsberg 100-m telescope, a multi-line study of molecular species is presented toward the gravitational lens system PKS1830-211. Obtaining average radial velocities and performing Large Velocity Gradient…
We present near-infrared and millimeter investigations of the nucleus of the infrared luminous galaxy NGC 4418, which previous observations suggest possesses a powerful buried AGN. We found the following main results: (1) The infrared…
We present results from our ALMA Cycle 0 observations, at the frequencies around the HCN, HCO+, and HNC J=4-3 transition lines, of the luminous infrared galaxy IRAS 20551-4250 at z=0.043, which is known to host an energetically important…
