Infrared spectroscopy What if we compile all of the interstellar and circumstellar molecules that have been detected with these spectroscopic techniques? Well... According toWikipedia... 43 Diatomics, 41 triatomics, 26 with four atoms, 19 with five atoms, 15 with six atoms, 9 with seven atoms, 10 with eight atoms, 9 with nine atoms, 15 with ten or more atoms and 17 deuterated molecules. 204 different molecules altogether who‘s ingredients include H, C, N, O, F, Na, Mg, Al, Si, P, S, Cl, K, Ti, Fe, I. „Mixtures of free molecular PAHs dominated by PAH ions, can account for the global appearance of interstellar emission spectra and the variations of those spectra.“ Then what??? -Allamandola & Hudgins.

Overview Setting the stage „In the beginnning...“ The spectroscopy „He saw the light was good and separated it from darkness.“ The implications “Then the eyes of both of them were opened.” Conclusion Microwave and infrared spectroscopy have been used to detect a wide variety of interstellar molecules and illuminate properties of their stellar environments. Infrared spectroscopy utilized in chemical simulations of reactions on interstellar ices. Various studies have been performed on amphiphilic vesicle forming molecules. Thank you for your attention!
