Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in the interstellar medium
The Unidentified Infrared (UIR) bands are a family of emission features seen in dusty objects, which are generally attributed to IR fluorescence of small (~ 50 C-atoms) polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) molecules. However, no specific PAH has so far been identified. The spatial distribution of 3...
