Abstract
We have surveyed molecular line emission from Sgr B2 between 330 and 355 GHz. By observing two separate positions within the molecular cloud we hoped to be able to study the degree of chemical differentiation present. The two positions have quite different spectra and this seems to reflect real differences in their chemistry. Line profiles reveal additional information about the locations of chemical species within the cloud.
