We have conducted a spectral line survey in the 3 mm and 2 mm bands toward two positions in a spiral arm of M51 (NGC 5194) with the IRAM 30 m telescope. In this survey, we have identified 13 molecular species, including CN, CCH, N2H+, HNCO, and CH3OH. Furthermore, 6 isotopologues of the major species have been detected. On the other hand, SiO, HC3N, CH3CN, and the deuterated species such as DCN and DCO+ are not detected. The deuterium fractionation ratios are evaluated to be less than 0.8 % and 1.2 % for DCN/HCN and DCO+/HCO+, respectively. By comparing the results of the two positions with different star formation activities, we have found that the observed chemical compositions do not strongly depend on star formation activities. They seem to reflect a chemical composition averaged over the 1-kpc scale region including many giant molecular clouds. Among the detected molecules CN, CCH, and CH3OH are found to be abundant. High abundances of CN, and CCH are consistent with the above picture of a wide spread distribution of molecules, because they can be produced by photodissociation. On the other hand, it seems likely that CH3OH is liberated into the gas phase by shocks associated with large scale phenomena such as cloud-cloud collisions and/or by non-thermal desorption processes such as photoevaporation due to cosmic-ray induced UV photons. The present result demonstrates a characteristic chemical composition of a giant molecular cloud complex in the spiral arm, which can be used as a standard reference for studying chemistry in AGNs and starbursts.
Spectral line survey observations are conducted toward the high-mass protostar candidate NGC 2264 CMM3 in the 4 mm, 3 mm, and 0.8 mm bands with the Nobeyama 45 m telescope and the Atacama Submillimeter Telescope Experiment (ASTE) 10 m telescope. In t

We have conducted a mapping spectral line survey toward the Galactic giant molecular cloud W51 in the 3 mm band with the Mopra 22 m telescope in order to study an averaged chemical composition of the gas extended over a molecular cloud scale in our G
We present the results of our spectral line surveys in the 2 mm and 1.3 mm windows toward the carbon rich envelope of IRC +10216. Totally 377 lines are detected, among which 360 lines are assigned to 57 known molecules (including 29 rare isotopomers
In order to study a molecular-cloud-scale chemical composition, we have conducted a mapping spectral line survey toward the Galactic molecular cloud W3(OH), which is one of the most active star forming regions in the Perseus arm, with the NRO 45 m te
