Identification of vibration-rotation lines of CH in the solar infrared spectrum
Abstract
Transitions of the fundamental band of CH have recently been measured with very high accuracy by Lubic and Amano (1984). The lines are shown to be present in the solar infrared spectrum (2580 - 2940 cm-1). The role these lines could play in solar and stellar spectroscopy is discussed.
