 +//Nature// **568**, 357 (2019).\\
 +The //J// = 1 − 0 transition at 2.0102 THz was detected 
 +in emission toward the NGC 7027 photo-dissociation region (PDR) with the upGREAT 
 +instrument using the SOFIA airplane. The column density is quite close to model 
 +calculations; interestingly, about a factor of four was detected compared to 
 +the expectations.\\

 +//Astrophys. J.// **894**, Art. No. 37 (2020).\\
 +The //v// = 1 − 0, //P//(1) and //P//(2) transitions were detected near 3.5 and 3.6 μm, respectively, using the iSHELL spectrograph at the Infrared Telescope Facility on Mauna Kea. Their best source model reproduced the  //P//(1) flux very well, but underproduced the fluxes of the //P//(2) and rotational transitions.\\
