3mm and 1mm spectra of IRC +10420

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

Our knowledge of the chemical properties of the circumstellar ejecta of the most massive evolved stars is particularly poor.

Description

We aim to study the chemical characteristics of the prototypical yellow hypergiant star, IRC +10420. For this purpose, we obtained full line surveys at 1 and 3mm atmospheric windows.

We have identified 106 molecular emission lines from 22 molecular species. Approximately half of the molecules detected are N-bearing species, in particular HCN, HNC, CN, NO, NS, PN, and N_2_H. We used rotational diagrams to derive the density and rotational temperature of the different molecular species detected.

We introduced an iterative method that allows us to take moderate line opacities into account.
