AbstractA molecular line search in the range between 85 and 89 GHz has been performed in the circumstellar envelopes of 11 evolved stars. Emissions of 29SiO J=2−1,28SiO J=2−1, HCN J=1−0, H13CN J=1−0, HC5 N J=33−32, HCO+ J=1−0 transitions and other transitions of C2 H, C4 H, and C3 N have been observed in 11 stars. We have detected the ground state 29SiO J=2−1 maser in several stars. We have also detected HCN emission in VY CMa. A narrow H13CN spike feature near the central velocity has been found in the spectrum of CRL 2688.
