“…For research in astronomy, one of the most definite and surprising knowledge of molecular synthesis comes from circumstellar envelopes of evolved stars, from the asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars to protoplanetary nebulae to planetary nebulae, over very short (∼10 3 yr) time scales. Specifically, carbon is synthesized in the core of AGB stars by nucleosynthesis and then dredged up to the star surface, and, subsequently, new Cbearing molecules with increasing complexity are detected through infrared and millimeter-wave spectroscopy in the stellar winds ejected from these stars (Kwok, 2015). By these processes, simple molecules, such as acetylene (C 2 H 2 ), CN chains (HCN, HC 3 N, HC 5 N), and rings (C 3 H 2 ), are formed at first in the stellar winds of AGB stars, followed by the formation of di-acetylene, triacetylene, and the first aromatic molecule, benzene, in the proto-planetary nebula stage.…”
