论文摘要

我们在实验室中以厘米的波长报告了镁的检测,MGC $ _2 $,分配$^{24} $ MGC $ _2 $,$^{25} $ MGC $ _2 $,以及$^{26} $^{26} $ _2 $ _2 $ _2 $ _2 $ _2 $ _2 $ _2 $ _2 $ _2 $ _2 $ _2 $ _2 $ _2 $ _2 $ _2 $ _2 $ _2 $ _2 $ _2 IRC+10216。 MGC $ _2 $的结构被认为是T形的,具有高离子键在金属原子和C $ _2 $单位之间,类似于其他含有电体元件的二核比类似。在IRC+10216中观察到的MGC $ _2 $排放线的两倍激发模型的旋转温度为$ 6 \ pm1 $ k,动力学温度为$ 22 \ pm13 $ k,以及圆柱密度$(1.0 \ pm 0.3)\ pm 0.3)\ pm 0.3)\ times 10^{12} {12} {12} $ cm $ cm $ cm $ cm $ cm $ cm $ cm $ cm $ cm $ cm $ cm^^$ cm^^$ cm^$ cm^^$ cm^^$ cm^$ cm^^$ cm^} $ cm^-2-2}。 MGC $ _2 $相对于镁碳链MGCCH,MGC $ _4 $ H和MGC $ _6 $ H的丰度是$ 1 {:} 2 {:} 2 {:} 22 {:} {:} 20 $,并提供了对散发性散热性关联型的新的重新组合机构的新约束。

We report the detection of magnesium dicarbide, MgC$_2$, in the laboratory at centimeter wavelengths and assign $^{24}$MgC$_2$, $^{25}$MgC$_2$, and $^{26}$MgC$_2$ to 14 unidentified lines in the radio spectrum of the circumstellar envelope of the evolved carbon star IRC+10216. The structure of MgC$_2$ is found to be T-shaped with a highly ionic bond between the metal atom and the C$_2$ unit, analogous to other dicarbides containing electropositive elements. A two-temperature excitation model of the MgC$_2$ emission lines observed in IRC+10216 yields a very low rotational temperature of $6\pm1$ K, a kinetic temperature of $22\pm13$ K, and a column density of $(1.0 \pm 0.3) \times 10^{12}$ cm$^{-2}$. The abundance of MgC$_2$ relative to the magnesium-carbon chains MgCCH, MgC$_4$H, and MgC$_6$H is $1{:}2{:}22{:}20$ and provides a new constraint on the sequential radiative association-dissociative recombination mechanisms implicated in the production of metal-bearing molecules in circumstellar environments.
