摘要
Compact regions of enhanced HCO(+) and NH(3) emission have been detected close to a number of Herbig-Haro objects. An interpretation of these detections is the following: a transient clump within the molecular cloud has been irradiated by the shock that generates the Herbig-Haro object. The irradiation releases icy mantles from the grains within the transient clump and initiates a photochemistry. On the basis of this picture, we have developed an extensive chemical model which predicts that a wide range of species, other than NH(3) and HCO(+), should also be detectable. These include CH(3)OH, H(2)S, C(3)H(4), H(2)CO, SO, SO(2), H(2)CS and NS. The chemical effects should last similar to 10(4) yr.
