used the Yebes 40 m telescopy in the 7 mm wavelength region (rest frequencies: 58.7 − 93.5 GHz) to study the molecular content of a foreground galaxy at z = 0.89 in absorption toward the quasar PKS 1830-211:
New Molecular Species at Redshift //z// = 0.89
Astron. Astrophys. 636, (2020) Art. No. L7.
Propenenitrile, C2H3CN, also known as vinyl cyanide or acrylonitrile, was identfied by five rotational transitions with J = 8 − 7 or 7 − 6 and Ka = 0 to 2. The lines show good (three) to very modest signal-to-noise ratios.
