Abstract:Aluminium is one of the most abundant metals in the universe and impacts the evolution of various astrophysical environments. Currently detected Al‐bearing molecules represent only a small fraction of the aluminium budget, suggesting that aluminium may reside in other species. AlO and AlOH molecules are abundant in the oxygen‐rich supergiant stars such as VY Canis Majoris, a stellar molecular factory with 60+ molecules including the prebiotic NC‐bearing species. Additional Al‐bearing molecules with N, C, O, an… Show more
