  1. Spectral Line Surveywith SKA Satoshi Yamamoto and Nami Sakai Department of Physics, The Univ. of Tokyo TomoyaHirota National Astronomical Observatory of Japan

  2. Interstellar Chemistry Various new research fields in chemistry A useful tool to study star formation processes.

  3. Interstellar Molecules • H2 • CO • HCN, HNC, H2CO, NH3, CS, SiO, CN, SO, SO2 • H3+, HCO+, HN2+, HCS+, C6H- • HC3N, HC5N, HC7N, HC9N, HC11N • C2H, C3H, C4H, C5H, C6H, C8H, CCS, C3S • CH3OH, HCOOCH3, (CH3)2O, C2H5CN, CH3CHO, HCOOH, C2H5OH, ~140 Species

  8. Carbon Chains HN2+, NH3 Deuterated Species DCO+, H2D+ Complex Organic Molecules Chemical Evolution of Molecular Clouds C → CO Conversion CO Depletion Mantle Evaporation

  9. Molecular Line Observations • ALMA • Higher frequency: mainly >85 GHz • Basic, simple light molecules • Higher temperature regions (GMCs, HCs, YSOs, UCHIIs) • SKA • Lower frequency: < 20 GHz • Complex, large and heavy molecules • Lower temperature region (dark clouds, prestellarcores, YSOs)

  10. Target Molecules with SKA Large molecules in cold clouds Carbon-chains & their isomers / PAHs ? High or mid band is necessary. Low line density per frequency/ less confusion OH, CH, (HI) Transition from atomic clouds to molecular clouds Recombination Lines H, He, C, S Depletion Prebiotic molecules Advantage over ALMA? Maybe yes. But high band is essential.

  11. Carbon-chain Molecules • Largest species HC11N and next candidates HC13N • Rich in cold dark cloud cores • SKA Mid/High-band is better than ALMA band-1 Red: HC11NGreen: HC13N

  12. Organic Molecules • Glycine • From cold to hot cores, comets, planets • From SKA High-band to ALMA

  22. Summary • SKA should be optimized for nonthermal emission and strong thermal emission including HI and OH. ( Thermal emission: I = 2kν2T/c2) • DI, CH, H2CO, CH3OH(maser) are good targets. • Nevertheless, observations of molecules are still interesting, because of its high sensitivity.
