First molecular cloud measurement with Irbene RT-32 radio telescope
Abstract
This paper describes the efforts of the Ventspils International Radio Astronomy Center (VSRC) astrochemist and observation groups to study the formation of massive stars from chemical evaluation and radio emission point of view. By observing all four selected sources chemists group observations can provide important feedback to models, mainly an information for molecules with maser emission. Based on detection of masers in young stellar object (YSO) observations provide information that there are parts of molecular clouds where gas density and molecular abundances are higher by a few orders than in typical young star forming clouds.
