Interstellar Detection of O-protonated Carbonyl Sulfide, HOCS+

We present the first detection in space of O-protonated carbonyl sulfide (HOCS ^+ ), in the midst of an ultradeep molecular line survey toward the G+0.693-0.027 molecular cloud. From the observation of all K _a = 0 transitions ranging from J _lo = 2 to J _lo = 13 of HOCS ^+ covered by our survey, we...
