摘要:

我们提出了一个系统的研究HNCO,C18 O,13 CS,和C34 S的排放对13个选定的分子云在银河系中心区域。在这些位置的分子发射被用作不同的物理和化学过程的模板声称是占主导地位的星系的环核分子气体。HNCO的相对丰度显示出在所观察到的源之间超过20倍的变化。HNCO/13 CS丰度比是高度对比(高达30倍)之间的屏蔽分子云主要受冲击,其中HNCO被释放到气相从粮食地幔,和那些弥漫着强烈的紫外线辐射场,其中HNCO是光离解和CS生产有利于通过离子反应。我们提出的相对HNCO CS丰度比作为一个高度对比的诊断工具,以区分冲击和/或辐射场的影响,在星系的核区域和它们的关系,其核恒星形成爆发的演化状态。

英文摘要:

We present a systematic study of the HNCO, C18O, 13CS, and C34S emission towards 13 selected molecular clouds in the Galactic center region. The molecular emission in these positions are used as templates of the different physical and chemical processes claimed to be dominant in the circumnuclear molecular gas of galaxies. The relative abundance of HNCO shows a variation of more than a factor of 20 amo ng the observed sources. The HNCO/13CS abundance ratio is highly contrasted (up to a factor of 30) between the shielded molecular clouds mostly affected by shocks, where HNCO is released to gas-phase from grain mantles, and those pervaded by an intense UV radiation field, where HNCO is photo-dissociated and CS production favored via ion reactions. We propose the relative HNCO to CS abundance ratio as a highly contrasted diagnostic tool to distinguish between the influence of shocks and/or the radiation field in the nuclear regions of galaxies and their relation to the evolutionary state of their nuclear star formation bursts.
