[H 13 CCCCCN] : [HC 13 CCCCN] : [HCC 13 CCCN] : [HCCC 13 CCN] : [HCCCC 13 CN] = 1.00 : 0.97 : 1.03 : 1.05 : 1.16 (± 0.19) ( 1σ ) [H 13 CCCCCN] : [HC 13 CCCCN] : [HCC 13 CCCN] : [HCCC 13 CCN] : [HCCCC 13 CN] = 1.00 : 0.97 : 1.03 : 1.05 : 1.16 (± 0.19) ( 1σ ) No significant differences in abundances among the five 13 C isotopologues

If HC 5 N is formed by the reactions involving CN HCCCC 13 CN is more abundant than the other 13 C isotopologues by 1.4 [H 13 CCCN] : [HC 13 CCN] : [HCC 13 CN] = 1.0 : 1.0 : 1.4 (Takano et al. (1998))

Pathways involving CN HC 4 H + CN → HC 5 N + H Growth of the carbon chain of HC 3 N Ex. HC 3 N + C 2 H →HC 5 N + H HC 3 N + C 2 H m + → HC 5 N + mH e-e-
20
There is no mechanisms for 13 C concentration of specific carbon atom All carbon atoms in HC 5 N are originated from C 5 H m + All 13 C isotopologues of HC 5 N have almost same abundances

Double Isotope Method m, n = 0 - 4

The 14 N/ 15 N of HC 3 N is considered to reflect that of CN HC 5 N 363 (31) HC 5 N 363 (31) 15 N is concentrated in CN

Introduction Observations Results & Discussion Summary Future Works
27
We carried out observations of the normal species and the five 13 C isotopologues in TMC-1 We conclude that the main formation pathways leading to HC 5 N are the reactions of C 5 H m + + N We have succeeded in the detection of HC 5 15 N in the interstellar medium for the first time We evaluated the contributions of CN and N in the formation of HC 5 N, and found out that ~ 40% of HC 5 N is formed by the reactions involving CN

29
Green et al. (2014) have been detected HC 5 N towards 35 hot cores We have carried out observations of HC 5 N, HC 7 N, and other carbon-chain molecules toward G28.28-0.36

Solar wind 440 Solar wind 440 Earth 272 Earth 272 Meteorites, Comets 100 - 180 When and How 15 N isotopic fractionation does occur? Our results suggest that concentration of 15 N in CN occur in the dark cloud stage How is inherited? Taniguchi et al. (ALMA Proposal)
31
We aim to establish new carbon-chain chemistry in hot cores (My Doctor’s thesis) Submitted proposals for GBT and ALMA Through these studies, I would like to reveal the formation mechanisms of complex organic molecules Work with Saito-san, Ohishi-san, Hirota-san, Ozeki-san

I thank Prof. Dobashi and Dr. Shimoikura for discussing calibration of the data of the Z45 receiver. I’m grateful for all NRO Staff and members of Z45 Receiver Group.
