Search for Complex Organic Molecules (COMs) in G354.61+0.47 from ALMA Observations

Abstract

Abstract Massive stars have a role in influencing the dynamics of the interstellar medium (ISM). Massive stars can be an effective form of matter because of its short lifetime and can produce and spread heavy elements. Complex Organic Molecules (COMs) in the ISM have been found towards the so-called hot cores associated with high-mass star-forming regions (HMSFR). However, observational data to investigate the presence of COMs in HMSFR are still lacking because of the rarity and the high level of extinction. The advance in radio observations, such as ALMA (Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array), helps to overcome these issues by allowing us to detect molecular tracers with high angular resolution. In this work, we use ALMA data to analyze and identify various COMs candidates present in the G354.61+0.47. The results show that there are 14 COMs in this object such as CH3OH, CH3CHO, CH3CN, and so on, that could be used as tracers of outflow and its hot core.
