Abstract

Astrochemistry Line: identification Stars: formation Submillimeter Techniques: interferometric Techniques: spectroscopic Nuclear and High Energy Physics Space and Planetary Science
Submillimeter Array (SMA) observations of the high-mass star-forming region IRAS 18089-1732 in the 1 mm and 850 μm band with 1 GHz bandwidth reveal a wealth of information. We present the observations of 34 lines from 16 different molecular species. Most molecular line maps show significant contributions from the outflow, and only a few molecules are confined to the inner core. We present and discuss the molecular line observations and outline the unique capabilities of the SMA for future imaging line surveys at high spatial resolution.
