Infrared bands of neutral gas-phase carbon clusters in a broad spectral range
Piero Ferrari, Alexander K. Lemmens, Britta Redlich
Abstract
is discussed based on the formation pathway from larger clusters in energetic conditions. Given the vast and very precise infrared information already been released from the James Webb Space Telescope mission, this infrared spectroscopic data set in conjunction with information on formation mechanisms is of major relevance for identifying neutral carbon clusters in astronomical environments.
