Interstellar molecules: their laboratory and interstellar habitat
Yamada, Koichi M.T.
Winnewisser, Gisbert
This book deals with the astrophysics and spectroscopy of the interstellar molecules. In the introduction, overview and history of interstellar observations are described in order to help understanding how the modern astrophysics andmolecular spectroscopy have been developed interactively. The recent progressin the study of this field is briefly summarized. Furthermore, the basic knowledge of molecular spectroscopy, which is essential to correctly comprehend the astrophysical observations, is presented in a compact form. Comprehensive overview Written by experts Focuses on selected topics INDICE: History (G. Winnewisser, M.T. Yamada).- Molecules Detected in Interstellar Space (F. Wyrowski, K. Menten).- Fundamentals of Spectroscopy for Astrophysics (P. Jensen, N. Ohashi).- Laboratory-Experimental Methods (T.F. Giesen, K. Jacobs).- Lists of Molecules Observed in Interstellar Space (F. Wyrowski, K. Menten).
