Linear C_4H and cyclic c-C_3H_2, as small unsaturated hydrocarbons, are the key precursors to complex organic molecules and are critical components of the interstellar medium. However, observational constraints on the evolution of these molecules in late-stage massive star-forming regions remain scarce. We …

Abstract Polar-ring galaxies (PRGs) host an outer ring of gas and stars oriented nearly perpendicular to the main stellar body. They represent extreme examples of misaligned systems and provide valuable insights into galaxy interactions, gas accretion, and peculiar gas dynamics. We compile …

Atomic carbon ([CI]) is a key species in the carbon chemistry of the interstellar medium (ISM). Using the Submillimeter Wave Astronomy Satellite (SWAS), we conducted a [CI]($^3$P$_1$--$^3$P$_0$) 492 GHz survey covering approximately 4 deg$^2$ of the L1688 and L1689 regions in the …

Methylidyne (CH) has long been considered a reliable tracer of molecular gas in the low-to-intermediate extinction range. Although extended CH 3.3 GHz emission is commonly observed in diffuse and translucent clouds, observations in cold, dense clumps are rare. In this work, we …

We present a new constraint on the Galactic 12C/13C gradient with sensitive HCO+ absorption observations against strong continuum sources. The new measurements suffer less from beam dilution, optical depths, and chemical fractionation, allowing us to derive the isotopic ratios precisely. The measured …

The cosmic-ray ionization rate (CRIR, $ζ_2$) is one of the key parameters controlling the formation and destruction of various molecules in molecular clouds. However, the current most commonly used CRIR tracers, such as H$_3^+$, OH$^+$, and H$_2$O$^+$, are hard to detect and …

Ions (e.g., H$_3^+$, H$_2$O$^+$) have been used extensively to quantify the cosmic-ray ionization rate (CRIR) in diffuse sightlines. However, measurements of CRIR in low-to-intermediate density gas environments are rare, especially when background stars are absent. In this work, we combine molecular line …
