How heavy molecules are living in ISM?

Abstract: In the study of heavy molecular formation and evolution, we aim to understand the processes involved in the creation and development of complex molecules in various interstellar environments. The interstellar medium (ISM) is a vast and dynamic region that contains a wide range of elements and compounds, including carbon-based molecules. Through our recent research conducted as part of the VLT large survey, we have been able to investigate the interaction of unknown molecules with carbon in different environments within the ISM. By analyzing spectroscopic data obtained from the VLT, we can identify and characterize these molecules, shedding light on their properties and behavior. One particular aspect of interest is the correlation relationships between these unknown molecules. By studying the patterns and connections between different molecular species, we can gain insights into their mutual influences and the underlying mechanisms that govern their presence and distribution. Our ongoing research efforts also involve investigating the formation mechanisms of these molecules in planetary nebulae. We plan to explore the role of various environmental factors, such as temperature, pressure, and radiation, in shaping the molecular composition of the ISM. Additionally, we aim to investigate the influence of specific astrophysical events, such as gas depletion, on the formation and evolution of these complex molecules.
