Abstract

The transition 111 − 110 at 4.829 GHz of formaldehyde (H2CO) was the first one showing the anomalous absorption, i.e., the absorption against the cosmic microwave background. Anomalous absorption is an unusual phenomena. Structure of H2CC is very similar to that of H2CO and H2CS. Both H2CO and H2CS have already been identified in a number of cosmic objects. Though H2CC is not yet identified in the cosmic objects, we propose that H2CC may be identified in cool cosmic objects through its transition 111 − 110 at 4.85 GHz in anomalous absorption.
