A Molecular Line Survey of CRL 2688 at 1 mm and 3 mm Wavelengths

It is well established that circumstellar envelopes (CSEs) around evolved stars are active sites of molecular synthesis, and CSEs are one of the major sources of chemical enrichment in the interstellar space. The investigation of molecular compositions in CSEs is essential to understand the chemical evolution of the Galaxy. In order to study circumstellar chemistry in different environments, we have been systematically performing molecular line surveys of a sample of evolved stars from asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars, proto-planetary nebulae (PPNs), to planetary nebulae (PNs). The dynamical time scales in different evolutionary stages can impose a time limit on the reaction time scales. Here we report our results for CRL 2688.
