IRAS 16293-2422 is a well-studied class 0, low-mass protostellar system in the ρ Ophiuchus cloud complex. Aside from the fact that it is a binary system with A and B protostars, IRAS 16293-2422 is thought to be similar to the development of our own solar system. Many astromolecules have been detected toward this source since the mid-1980s. Multiple detections of species are given, and the earliest citation may not be the first detection of a given compound. This page is an effort to be reasonably thorough about the collective study of a source rather than a list of initial detections. Common and rare isotopomers are collected together here, and some non-detections are also noted (in green font). Tentative detectections are in italics. Recent studies are highlighted in blue. On this page you will find efforts to expand the inventories of the object as a whole or of each subsource. You will also see examples where a known molecule is used to trace some physical property of the source, such as the temperature of certain regions or infall and outflow of material. (Note: IRAS refers to the Infrared Astronomical Satellite, the first space-based infrared observatory.) |
