Detection of Methyl Alcohol in Sagittarius
Abstract
This Letter reports observations of radio line emission at 834 MHz (36 cm), due to a K-type doubling transition in methyl alcohol, in the directions of Sgr A and Sgr B2. Line widths and Doppler velocities compare favorably with other molecular spectra observed toward the galactic-center region.
