Grains, or Molecules? Thermal, or non-Thermal? [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1989
The effects of size and energy on infrared fluorescence (IRF) and on chemical reaction rates are investigated, using polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) as examples. The range of validity of the Thermal Approximation (TA) is examined. It is found that for properties that have a near-linear dependence on the internal energy, the TA provides an ...
