22 1. Introduction Diffuse Interstellar Bands Electronic transition A or B Absorption X Diffuse Interstellar Bands: DIBs Absorption lines by interstellar molecules Diffuse Interstellar Bands (DIBs) First report in 1922 Optical ~NIR (width:1-100 cm -1 ) ~600 lines No identification so far 2015/2/20 22
23 H 2 CCC as a Diffuse Interstellar Band Carrier Maier et al., ApJ, 726, 41 (2011). Mass selected H 2 CCC 6K Ne-Matrix, Absorption spectra C C C H H H 2 CCC D 2 CCC B allowed A forbidden X
24 Cavity Ring Down Spectra Jet, High Resolution 5450Å 4881Å H 2 CCC? H 2 CCC + l-c 3 H D 2 CCC l-c 3 H removed Maier et al Validation: Stanton et al Negative ion photoelectron spectroscopy + Theoretical calculations
25 DIBs and Laboratory Spectra DIB at 4881 Å DIB at 5450 Å DIBs at 5450 and 4881 Å Agreements in widths, wavelengths and profiles Column density: cm -2 Maier et al. 2011
26 Excitation Temperature Maier et al. (2011) Lab. 60 K Upper state life time 100 fs Diffuse Clouds Temp.: 10-60K
27 Opinion 1 Oka & McCall, Science, 331, 293 (2011). Agreements in diffuse peaks DIBs are not toward the same star. DIBs are not by the same cloud. Too much abundances as H 2 CCC(>>C 2 )
28 Opinion 2 Strong variability HD Toward 49 stars H 2 CCC Krełowski et al., ApJ, 735, 124 (2011)
29 Blending? H 2 CCC pure blending HD H 2 CCC?
30 How to Judge the Identification Maier et al. Oka & McCall Yes No Krełowski et al. No blending? Dipole Moments: D H 2 CCC has been detected in dark clouds by radio observations. Radio observations of H 2 CCC toward HD Column density: cm -2 (Maier et al. 2011) Excitation temperature: K J Ka,Kc = 5 1,5 4 1,4 : GHz Antenna temperature: ~2 K
31 2. Observations The 45 m telescope in Nobeyama Radio Observatory Date: 2012 January 15 J Ka,Kc = 5 1,5 4 1,4 : GHz Receiver: S100 Integration: 1h25m Antenna Temp.: 32 mk
32 HD HD galactic plane [α(j2000), δ(j2000)] = (19h 27m 26s.56, ) The 7th magnitude star
33 Two diffuse clouds toward HD McCall et al., ApJ, 567, 391, (2002) Velocity: 7.7 and 23.6 km s 1 HD CH CH 4300Å CH Linewidths (FWHM): 7.7 and 4.9 km s 1
34 Possible line profile of H 2 CCC Arbitrary Intensity Components by Frequency Throw
35 3. Results and Discussions Integration: 1h25m Antenna Temp.: 32 mk
36 Upper limit of column density Ortho/Para = 3.0 Permanent dipole moment = D Excitation temp. = K Column density ratio = 40:60 (CH) Velocity of 23.6 km s 1 3σ rms noise = 95 mk Linewidth of 4.9 km s 1 (CH) σ= 95 mk Upper limit of column densities H 2 CCC Ortho + Para 23.6 kms kms K cm 2 60 K cm 2
37 Toward HD The upper limit of a column density is cm 2. DIB at 5450 Å < 1 25 Å The huge column density ( cm -2, Maier et al. 2011) of H 2 CCC toward HD was unjustified.
38 How about toward other stars? H 2 CCC pure blending HD Assumption: HD has a normal column density for H 2 CCC. The major carrier of DIBs at 5450 and 4881 Å can not be H 2 CCC.
39 4. Summary We searched for the rotational transition of H 2 CCC at 103 GHz toward HD using the 45 m telescope at NRO. The upper limit of a column density toward HD is cm 2. The huge column density of H 2 CCC toward HD (Maier et al. 2011) was unjustified. The major carrier of DIBs at 5450 and 4881 Å can not be H 2 CCC. C C C H H
