Solar Carbon Monoxide, Thermal Profiling, and the Abundances of C, O, and their Isotopes [PDF]
A solar photospheric "thermal profiling" analysis is presented, exploiting the infrared rovibrational bands of carbon monoxide (CO) as observed with the McMath-Pierce Fourier transform spectrometer (FTS) at Kitt Peak, and from above the Earth's atmosphere by the Shuttle-borne ATMOS experiment.

Detection of Carbon Monoxide and Water Absorption Lines in an Exoplanet Atmosphere [PDF]
Determining the atmospheric structure and chemical composition of an exoplanet remains a formidable goal. Fortunately, advancements in the study of exoplanets and their atmospheres have come in the form of direct imaging - spatially resolving the planet from its parent star - which enables high-resolution spectroscopy of self-luminous planets in Jovian-

A Simple Combustion Efficiency Indicator for Automobile Engines
A cheap device which can indicate carbon monoxide levels in exhaust emission of internal combustion engines, and hence could be used for adjusting the engine's operating air: fuel mixture ratio, would have widespread application in garages, etc.

Carbon Monoxide Poisoning [PDF]
The deadly effect of carbon monoxide was known as long ago as Greek and Roman times, when the gas was used for executions1. In 1857 Claude Bernard postulated that its noxious effect was caused by reversible displacement of oxygen from haemoglobin to form carboxyhaemoglobin2.

Carbon Monoxide Adsorption and Carbon Monoxide Oxidation Studies on Thiolate Supported Gold Nanoclusters Dispensed on Metallic Oxides [PDF]
Thiolate-protected gold nanoclusters represent atomically well-defined active centers for catalysis with resolved crystal structures, enabling the creation of a homogeneous and defined surface. The correlation of characterization via FT-IR spectroscopy with kinetics studies gives insight into the gold clusters activity and tests their utilization to ...

Dissolution of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen monoxide in water [PDF]
Sulfur dioxide (SO$_2$) and nitrogen monoxide (NO) are some of the gas impurities present in the carbon dioxide (CO$_2$) separated from fume using post combustion capture process. Even in a small amount, these impurities may have an impact on storage process development.

Cardiovascular deaths related to Carbon monoxide Exposure in Ahvaz, Iran
Carbon monoxide is an odorless, colorless and toxic gas that emitted from combustion. Carbon monoxide can cause harmful health effects by reducing oxygen delivery to the body's organs (like the heart and brain), tissues, fibrinolysis effects, abortion ...

Neutral Atomic Carbon in Centers of Galaxies [PDF]
We present measurements of the emission from the centers of fifteen spiral galaxies in the 3P1-3P0 [CI] fine-structure transition at 492 GHz. Observed galaxy centers range from quiescent to starburst to active. The intensities of neutral carbon, the J=2-1 transition of 13CO and the J=4-3 transition of 12CO are compared in matched beams.
