15 Apr 2004 | Journal: | Astron.Astrophys. 419 (2004) L35-L38 | Subject: | astro-ph | Affiliation: | MPIfR, Bonn, SAp, CEA/Saclay | Abstract: | We present a high-resolution millimeter study of the very young Class 0 protostar IRAM 04191+1522 in the Taurus molecular cloud. N2H+(1-0) observations with the IRAM Plateau de Bure Interferometer and 30m telescope demonstrate that the molecular ion N2H+ disappears from the gas phase in the inner part of the protostellar envelope (r < 1600 AU, n(H2) > 5 x 10^5 cm^-3). This result departs from the predictions of current chemical models. It suggests either that N2 is more depleted than the models predict, owing to a higher binding energy on polar ice or an enhanced grain chemistry transforming N2 to less volatile species, or that strong deuterium fractionation enhances N2D+ to the detriment of N2H+. | Source: | arXiv, astro-ph/0404294 | Other source: | [GID 683433] astro-ph/0402016 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
