Abstract: |
We have carried out survey of carbon-chain molecules and NH3 toward more than 100 nearby molecular cloud cores with the Nobeyama 45m telescope.
As a result, variations in the NH3/CCS ratios, ranging from 1-500, are found both among dark cloud cores and molecular cloud complexes.
It is most likely due to the difference in the contraction timescale and/or the evolutionary phase of the cores.
We have identified dark cloud cores with remarkably low NH3/CCS ratios in the Taurus, Aquila, and Cepheus regions.
They are possible candidates of chemically and dynamically less evolved cores. |
