A millimeter-wave interferometric study of gas-phase silicon dicarbide in the circumstellar envelope surrounding IRC+10216

Abstract

dc:description

We have used the Berkeley-Illinois-Maryland Association (BIMA) Array to map emission from the 4$\sb{22}$-$3\sb{21}$ and 4$\sb{04}$-$3\sb{03}$ transitions of SiC$\sb2$ in the circumstellar envelope (CSE) surrounding IRC+10216. The NRAO 12-m telescope was used to fill in missing flux from large scale structure not detected by the interferometer. The interferometry and 12-m single-element data were combined to make full synthesis maps of emission from SiC$\sb2$ toward IRC+10216.
