Organic Molecules in Interstellar Space: Latest Advances
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2022 Although first considered as too diluted for the formation of molecules in-situ and too harsh an environment for their survival, the interstellar medium has turned out to host a rich palette of molecular species: to date, 256 species, not counting ...

Presumed Detection of C5 Molecule in the Interstellar Medium
The Astrophysical Journal, 2022 The paper suggests the presence of the carbon chain C _5 molecule in translucent, interstellar H i clouds. This species, the only five atom interstellar molecule, observable in dark, translucent clouds, seems to be observable in reasonably dense clouds ...

Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1970 The observation of molecules in the interstellar medium offers an excellent oppor- tunity to specify the physical conditions present there. This must be done through the combined use of theory and observation. In the last few years the advancement in this area has accelerated spectacularly.
