Archive "Catalog Search Form"

  • Nov. 2021: A new group was defined: Other hydrocarbons, that are hydrocarbons different from the carbon chain species CnH and CnH2, but including isotopologs.
  • Dec. 2018: A new group was defined: ISM, molecules detected in the interstellar medium, but not in circumstellar shells of late-type stars.
  • Nov. 2018: A bug in the calculation of A values was fixed. This affected transitions with gup larger than 999.
