Integrated intensity map of 12CO J = 3–2 line between +100 and +110 km s−1 towards the southwestern part of SNR 3C391, overlaid with orange contours of 1.4 GHz radio continuum (levels are 4, 12, 20, 28 and 36 mJy/beam). The red cross shows the 1720 MHz OH maser reported by Frail et al. (1996). The dashed white circle delineates the 3C391:NML region we observed. -- astro-ph.GA

A Yebes W band Line Survey Towards an Unshocked Molecular Cloud of Supernova Remnant 3C391: Evidence of Cosmic-Ray-Induced Chemistry

by Keith CowingAugust 29, 2024August 28, 2024

Cosmic rays (CRs) have strong influences on the chemistry of dense molecular clouds (MCs). To study the detailed chemistry induced by CRs, we conducted a Yebes W band line survey […]
