10 Anions in space not such a bad idea H shown to be the main source of opacity in the solar atmosphere. (Wildt, ApJ, 1939) Molecular anions long postulated to be constituents of the interstellar gas. cold, dense clouds circumstellar shells diffuse interstellar medium (Herbst, Nature, 1981; Lepp & Dalgarno, ApJ, 1988; Petrie, MNRAS, 1996; Petrie & Herbst, ApJ 1997; Millar et al., MNRAS, 2000, Tulej et al., ApJL, 1998) anions studied by low resolution methods in the laboratory. (e.g. Rienstra-Kiracofe et al., Chem. Rev., 2002)
11 Anions in space lack of laboratory data But: only two anions studied by rotational spectroscopy: (Liu & Oka, JCP, 1986; Civis et al., JCP, 1998). OH and SH a few more by IR spectroscopy: NCS, NCO, NH 2, NH, HNO (Owrutsky et al., Phil Trans. R. Soc. Lond., 1987; Miller et al., JMS, 1989; Al Za al et al., Phys. Rev. A, 1987) and rotationally resolved electronic spectroscopy: C 4 H, CH 2 CN, l-c 3 H 2 (Pachkov et al., Mol. Phys., 2003; Lykke et al., JCP, 1987; Yokoyama et al., JCP, 1996) only one published (unsuccessful) search in space: (Morisawa et al., PASJ, 1995) CCH, NCS, NCO
12 B1377: An unidentified sequence of astronomical lines Line survey of IRC (Kawaguchi et al., PASJ, 1995) 7 lines (Nobeyama 45m) circumstellar envelope around carbon rich star extremely rich chemistry: >50 molecules TMC-1 (Taurus-Auriga Molecular Cloud) (McCarthy et al., ApJL, 2006) 2 lines (GBT 100m) cold (10 K), dense (10 4 cm -3 ) rich in carbon-chains no metal-bearing molecules TMC-1 Guélin et al. (1997) Dame et al. ApJ (2001)
13 B1377: An unidentified sequence of astronomical lines rotational lines are harmonic: separated in frequency by ratio of integers resolving molecular shell carrier almost certainly a closed-shell ( 1 S) linear molecule likely a rather fundamental molecule rotational constant about 1% lower than C 6 H (B=1391 MHz), an abundant radical in this source C 6 H suggested as carrier based on ab initio calculations (Aoki, Chem. Phys. L., 2000) J= mk But: positive ions (HCO + ) not abundant in these sources
14 B1377 in the laboratory Exact match to astronomical lines has now been achieved using two hydrocarbon gases 15+ lines detected over two decades of frequency Constant (MHz) Laboratory Astronomical B (7) (294) 10 6 D 32.35(1) 33.35(993)
15 B1377 in the laboratory and in space
16 Experimental setup - FTM supersonic nozzle coupled to a high-q Fabry-Perot cavity discharge nozzle Q ~ 40,000 movable mirror 1 msec FID ~100 msec cooled to 77 K FFT frequency range: 5 42 GHz resolution: 20 khz accuracy: 1-2 khz low current (~20 ma) discharge of C 4 H 2 or C 2 H 2 (0.1 %) in Ne (He, H 2 )
17 Experimental setup mm-wave absorption spectrometer InSb detector power supply solenoid Gunn n 2 m LN 2 LN 2 low current dc glow discharge of C 2 H 2 (85 %) + Ar (15 %) frequency coverage: GHz frequency accuracy: khz cell walls cooled by LN 2 to 150 K
18 Identification of B1377 as C 6 H composed of both C and H harmonic relation of lines requires linear geometry B constant requires chain of six carbon atoms; one more of less yields B 40% too high or low Isotopic shift observed on deuteration requires one H at end of carbon chain (4.53% vs. 4.55% for C 6 H) Neutral C 6 H ( 2 P) and C 6 H + ( 3 S) lack required symmetry carrier must be C 6 H one of the most securely identified astronomical molecules
19 Why hexatriyne, C 6 H? larger than most of the neutral molecules and all of the cations Four factors favor formation: radical is abundant in both IRC and TMC-1 exceptionally stable: high electron binding (3.8 ev)
20 Why hexatriyne, C 6 H? larger than most of the neutral molecules and all of the cations Four factors favor formation: radical is abundant in both IRC and TMC-1 exceptionally stable: high electron binding (3.8 ev) size confers stability: C 6 H apparently large enough where e attachment becomes efficient (Taylor et al., JCP, 1998)

22 Why hexatriyne, C 6 H? larger than most of the neutral molecules and all of the cations Four factors favor formation: radical is abundant in both IRC and TMC-1 exceptionally stable: high electron binding (3.8 ev) size confers stability: C 6 H apparently large enough where e attachment becomes efficient (Taylor et al., JCP, 1998) spectral simplification: lines of anion x10 more conspicuous than those of neutral!

24 More anions discovery of C 6 H suggested specific anions to target closed-shell 1 S ground states and large dipole moments (m) large electron affinities (EA) radicals are detected in astronomical sources anions do not react with H 2 (Barckholtz et al., ApJL, 547, 2001) EA (ev) m (D) m (D) B (MHz) CCH 2 S CCH 1 S ,639 C 4 H 2 S C 4 H 1 S 6.1 4,656 C 6 H 2 P C 6 H 1 S 8.2 1,377 C 8 H 2 P C 8 H 1 S CN 2 S CN 1 S ,133 C 3 N 2 S C 3 N 1 S 3.1 4,852
25 Ab initio calculations laboratory searches guided by high level CCSD(T) ab initio calculations (cc-pvtz or higher) (Gupta & Stanton, private communication) calculated rotational constants B 0 accurate to better than 0.1 % calculations considerably speed up laboratory searches additional information: centrifugal distortion constants quadrupole coupling constants dipole moments

27 Cyanide, CN B ~ 56 GHz hyper fine structure acts as spectral fingerprint 5 transitions in GHz range (Gottlieb et al., JCP 2007)
28 Cyanide, CN B ~ 56 GHz integration time ~10 min! anion / neutral ratio of 1 % in glow discharge dissociative attachment to (CN) 2 (Kühn et al., Chem. Phys. L., 1987) CN / (CN) 2 = 4 x 10-6
29 Ion Drift Measurements CN measurements in single pass +HV -HV radiation with alternating polarity direct proof of the charge state of the carrier
30 C 3 N Petrie & Herbst (ApJ, 1997) predicted C 3 N to have abundance ~1 % of neutral C 3 N in TMC-1 discharge production: dissociative attachment to HCCCN (Graupner et al., New J. Phys., 2006) 12 transitions detected up to 380 GHz C 3 N / HC 3 N = 5 x 10-6 B ~ 4.9 GHz C 3 N / C 3 N = 2 %
31 Formation in the laboratory in the laboratory dissociative attachment possible [E kin (e ) ~ 3eV] e + HCCH CCH + H threshold 1.76 ev (De Bleecker et al., Phys. Rev. E, 2006) CCH + HCCH C 4 H + H 2 Questions to be addressed: plasma characteristics, influence of carrier gas, suitable precursors? wall surface chemistry, metallization of discharge cell? DC discharge vs. H + or H + 2 abstraction HC 2n H + OH C 2n H + H 2 O reduction of background lines? velocity modulation
32 Detection of C 8 H in TMC-1 100m Green Bank Telescope (April 2007) N T = 2.1(4) cm -2 for T rot = 5 K C 8 H / C 8 H = 5(1) % Brünken et al., ApJL, 2007
33 Detection of C 3 N in IRC IRAM 30m telescope N T = 1.6 x cm -2 T rot = 24 K C 3 N /C 3 N = 0.52 % Thaddeus et al., ApJ 2008
34 Anions in space C 6 H and C 8 H detected in TMC-1 C 4 H, C 6 H, C 8 H and C 3 N now been detected in IRC (Cernicharo et al. ApJL, 2007; Remijan et al., ApJL, 2007, Kawaguchi et al., PASJ, 2007, Thaddeus et al., ApJ 2008) C 8 H anion to neutral ratio 28-37%! detection of C 4 H, C 6 H in a third source: IRAS in L1527 (Agundez et al. A&A, 2008; Sakai et al. ApJL, 2007, 2008) tentative detection of J = 2-1 of CN in IRC (Guelin, private communication)

37 Conclusions accurate transition frequencies available for all six anions C 4 H, C 6 H, C 8 H and C 3 N have already been detected in space with surprisingly high abundances many other anions likely to be detected in the laboratory and in space (CH 2 CN, l-c 3 H 2, C 3 H 3, CH 3 O ) a galactic survey of molecular anions, i.e. C 6 H is timely other, better sources abundance as function of temperature, density and composition laboratory studies of reaction and formation rates of anions necessary
