Astronomical dust molecule of carbon-rich nebula-Lin49 and nebula-Tc1 could be identified to be polycyclic-pure-carbon C23 by the quantum-chemical calculation. Two driving forces were assumed. One is high speed proton attack on coronene-C24H12, which created void-induced C23H12. Another is high energy photon irradiation, which brought deep photo-ionization and finally caused dehydrogenation to be C23. Infrared spectrum calculation show that a set of ionized C23 (neutral, mono, and di-cation) could reproduce observed many peaks of 28 bands at wavelength from 6 to 38 micrometer. Previously predicted neutral fullerene-C60 could partially reproduce observed spectrum by 5 bands. Also, we tried calculation on ionized-C60, which show fairly good coincidence with observed 10 bands
