Molecular Line Surveys
of nearby active galaxies
Rebeca Aladro (ESO/ALMA fellow-­‐Chile) 3mm survey of eight nearby acCve galaxies Chemical EvoluCon of Starburst Galaxies Young (M83) HOC+ HNCO CH3OH SiO CH3CCH Intermediate (NGC253) Old/post (M82) c-­‐C3H2 HOC+ HNCO CH3OH SO2 SiO SO CH3CCH OCS HOCO+ HCO HOC+ CH3CCH HC3N SiO c-­‐C3H2 HCO v  Common shock/grain-­‐ and dense gas tracers v  Only HOC+ as PDR tracer v  No Hα recombinaCon lines v  Shock/grain-­‐ and dense gas tracers(including “rare” species) v  PDR tracers v  Bright Hα recombinaCon lines v  PDR tracers v  Some shock/grain-­‐ and dense gas tracers v  Very bright Hα recombinaCon lines We found no molecular raCo that characterises the AGNs HCN/C18O, HNC/C18O, CN/C18O, C2H/C18O: low in M51, high in NGC1068 and NGC7469 HCO+/HCN, CN/HCN: Do not correlate with AGN acCvity SpaCal resoluCon is more criCcal in the AGNs case. But also…. Mix of Sy1 and Sy2, low-­‐ and high-­‐luminosity, excitaCon effects…. ULIRGs are characterised by 13CO/C18O ~ 1 Log10[[ N(13CO) / N(C18O) ] 1 Arp220 Mrk231 Factor 5 -­‐1 -­‐3 GHz Also seen in higher-­‐J transiCons (Matsushita+09, MarCn+11, Henkel+14) High opaciCes of 13CO : I(12CO)/I(13CO)=~20 Overabundance of C18O Less diffuse and more enriched gas in ULIRGs ULIRGs are characterised by high abundances of HC3N and H13CN Factor 4 -­‐2.5 -­‐3.0 -­‐3.5 -­‐4.0 Log10 [ N(H13CN) / N(C18O) ] Log10 [ N(HC3N) / N(C18O) ] -­‐2.0 -­‐2.5 -­‐3.0 Factor 20 -­‐3.5 -­‐4.0 -­‐4.5 HC3N (see also Aalto+07, Costagliola+11, Lindberg+11) H13CN More warm dust in ULIRGs allows high abundances of these species Differences between Arp220 and Mrk231 point to different nuclear powering sources TMB (mK) mid-­‐IR pumping?

Arp220 chemistry resembles SBs: low abundances of HCN, CN. CH3CCH detected. ²  This needs to be compared to interferometric results, mulC-­‐
transiCon observaCons, and chemical models.
