• Direct observations of iced molecules are possible only forabundances x>10-6
• Less abundant species (x>10-11) can be observed only in thegas phase in the region where they sublimate

WHAT DETERMINE THE HOT CORINO SIZES ?
9- Hot Corinos
SIMPLE MINDED THEORY :In first approximation, the corino sizes are determined by theLUMINOSITY of the protostar. This sets where the dusttemperature reaches the sublimation temperature of the H2O-richices, and the molecules trapped in.During the Main Accretion Phase, the luminosity Lbol of the protostaris given by the gravitational energy released during the collapes.
Lbol ~ M* Macc / G / R*
Where Macc is the accretion rate, G is the gravitational constant,and R* is where the infalling matter releases its energy.Assuming in first approximation that Macc and R* are constant duringthis phase, the luminosity increases with the age of the protostar.

IS IRAS16293-2422 A FREAK ?

HOT CORINOS EVERYWHERE !
Detected methyl formate (HCOOCH3), formic acid (HCOOH)and methyl cyanid (CH3CN) in another low mass protostar,NGC1333-IRAS4 (Bottinelli et al. 2004a). Note the methanoldeficiency in low mass wrt high mass protostars.

THE FORMATION OF THE HOT CORINOMOLECULES
9- Hot Corinos
Simple hydrogenated molecules like ammonia, methanol andformaldehyde are formed by grain surface reactions (duringthe Pre-Stellar Core phase), and are called PARENTmolecules.Once injected into the gas phase (because of ice sublimation)they undergo gas phase reactions and form complexmolecules, called DAUGTHER molecules.

Summary• Low mass protostars have Hot Corinos whose sizes varybetween 10 and 150 AU;
• Formaldehyde and methanol have been observed to haveabundance as high as 10-7;
• Complex organic molecules are also detected and seem to bea common propriety of hot corinos;
• Likely, grain surface reactions followed by gas phasereactions is the way these molecules are formed;
• Glycolaldehyde, propenal and propanal are the most complexmolecules so far detected.
