  • Chapter
High-Resolution Spectroscopy of Transient Molecules

Part of the book series: Springer Series in Chemical Physics ((CHEMICAL,volume 40))

Abstract

High-resolution spectroscopy is an ideal tool for identifying chemical species and monitoring their abundance not only in total but also in individual quantum states, and can thus provide very detailed information on various chemical systems. Three representative fields are considered in this chapter, and some speculative discussion on future prospects of high-resolution spectroscopic studies of unstable molecules follows.
