Observed transitions of CH_3_OH and CH_3_CHO

DOI

IRAM 30m Observations toward eight protostellar outflow sources were taken in the 96-176GHz range. Transitions of CH_3_OH and CH_3_CHO were detected in seven of them. The integrated emissions of the transitions of each species that fell into the observed frequency range were measured and fit using RADEX and LTE models. Column densities and gas properties inferred from this fitting are presented. The ratio of the A and E-type isomers of CH_3_OH indicates that the methanol observed in these outflows was formed on the grain surface. Both species demonstrate a reduction of terminal velocity in their line profiles in faster outflows, indicating destruction in the post-shock gas phase. This destruction, and a near constant ratio of the CH_3_OH and CH_3_CHO column densities, imply it is most likely that CH_3_CHO also forms on the grain surface.
