论文摘要
我们概述了绿色银行望远镜上的哥谭(GBT观察到TMC-1:狩猎芳香分子)的大型程序。在我们较早在TMC-1中发现了苯甲腈($ c $ -c $ _6 $ _5 $ _5 $ cn)之后,该计划和相关计划启动了星际培养基中芳香化学的深度和广度。在这项工作中,提供了观察,档案数据的使用和数据减少策略的详细信息。使用这些观察结果,描述了pro plyggyl氰化物(HCCCH $ _2 $ CN)的星际检测以及随附的实验室光谱。我们在研究前固有来源中复杂的气相分子的先前未开发的储层的背景下,讨论了这些结果以及整个调查项目。一系列伴侣论文描述了其他新的天文探测和分析。
We present an overview of the GOTHAM (GBT Observations of TMC-1: Hunting Aromatic Molecules) Large Program on the Green Bank Telescope. This and a related program were launched to explore the depth and breadth of aromatic chemistry in the interstellar medium at the earliest stages of star formation, following our earlier detection of benzonitrile ($c$-C$_6$H$_5$CN) in TMC-1. In this work, details of the observations, use of archival data, and data reduction strategies are provided. Using these observations, the interstellar detection of propargyl cyanide (HCCCH$_2$CN) is described, as well as the accompanying laboratory spectroscopy. We discuss these results, and the survey project as a whole, in the context of investigating a previously unexplored reservoir of complex, gas-phase molecules in pre-stellar sources. A series of companion papers describe other new astronomical detections and analyses.
