Hydrides represent the first steps of interstellar chemistry. Sulfanylium (SH$^+$), in particular, is a key tracer of energetic processes. We used ALMA and the IRAM 30 m telescope to search for the lowest frequency rotational lines of SH$^+$ toward the Orion Bar, the prototypical photo-dissociation region illuminated by a strong UV radiation field. On the basis of previous $Herschel$/HIFI observations of SH$^+$, we expected to detect emission of the two SH$^+$ hyperfine structure (HFS) components of the $N_J = 1_0 - 0_1$ fine structure (FS) component near 346 GHz. While we did not observe any lines at the frequencies predicted from laboratory data, we detected two emission lines, each $\sim$15 MHz above the SH$^+$ predictions and with relative intensities and HFS splitting expected for SH$^+$. The rest frequencies of the two newly detected lines are more compatible with the remainder of the SH$^+$ laboratory data than the single line measured in the laboratory near 346 GHz and previously attributed to SH$^+$. Therefore, we assign these new features to the two SH$^+$ HFS components of the $N_J = 1_0 - 0_1$ FS component and re-determine its spectroscopic parameters, which will be useful for future observations of SH$^+$, in particular if its lowest frequency FS components are studied. Our observations demonstrate the suitability of these lines for SH$^+$ searches at frequencies easily accessible from the ground.

ALMA Observations of the Spatial Distribution of three C$_2$H$_4$O$_2$ Isomers towards Sgr B2(N)
C $_2$ H $_4$ O $_2$异构体以前主要通过涉及单皿和阵列测量的不同观测集进行了研究。2013年对IRAM 30 m观测进行了唯一一次使用统一观测集的尝试(Belloche等人,2013年)。在这项研究中,我们提出了一个密集和严格的光谱和形态分析的C $_2$ H $_4$ O $_2$异构体对Sgr B2(N)的干涉仪,ALMA波段3的观测。我们提出了一种定量选择方法,它自动化的最不受污染的过渡的测定,并允许我们报告发现以前未检测到的过渡的三种异构体。随着最少的污染过渡,高空间分辨率毫米地图的C $_2$ H $_4$ O $_2$异构体显示,HCOOCH $_3$和CH $_2$ OHCHO每个显示两个不同的速度分量,而只有一个速度分量的CH $_3$ COOH的解决。此外,与CH $_2$ OHCHO和CH $_3$ COOH不同,HCOOCH $_3$的分布从连续谱发射扩展并偏移,对于它们,低速分量被发现是紧凑的并且集中在Sgr B2(N)的连续谱发射峰。这些C $_2$ H $_4$ O $_2$异构体的不同形态表明,HCOOCH $_3$在化学过程中与CH $_2$ OHCHO和CH $_3$ COOH有显著差异,它们显示出相似的空间分布。
