内容記述 | Research in the use of FIR and sub-mm lines to provide data relevant to astrochemistry is examined. Spectroscopic features in the FIR and sub-mm are dominated by transitions from species of atoms and atomic ions, metal hydrides, and heavy molecules. The data of Lester et al.(1983) and Dinerstein et al. (1984) on the N/O abundance ratio are discussed. The N/O abundance ratio is analyzed as a function of the galactic radius, and the procedure for determining the N/O abundance ratio from the FIR and sub-mm lines is given. The conditions at the surface of molecular clouds and the chemical profile of molecular clouds are studied in the forbidden lines O I 63.18 and 145.53 microns and the forbidden line C II 157.74 microns. Results of recent FIR/sub-mm observations of post-shocked gas which relate to modeling the chemical processing that occurs in the wake of shock waves are considered. |
