Detection of C60 in the protoplanetary nebula IRAS 01005+7910.

ZHANG Y. and KWOK S.

Abstract (from CDS):

We report the first detection of buckminsterfullerene (C60) in a protoplanetary nebula. The vibrational transitions of C60 at 7.0, 17.4, and 18.9 µm are detected in the Spitzer/Infrared Spectrograph spectrum of IRAS 01005+7910. This detection suggests that fullerenes are formed shortly after the asymptotic giant branch but before the planetary nebulae stage. A comparison with the observations of C60 in other sources is made and the implication for circumstellar chemistry is discussed.
