Abstract

The gas-phase infrared spectrum of C60 has been observed in emission with the National Solar Observatory Fourier transform spectrometer at Kitt Peak. Bands attributable to the C60 molecule are found at 527.1, 570.3, 1169.1 and 1406.9 cm-1. Additional emission features are tentatively assigned to C70 or combination bands of C60. A new, strong emission is observed at 1010.2 cm-1 belonging to an unknown molecule. None of these features can be associated with any of the strong emission bands observed so far in astronomical sources.
