The UCL Centre for Cosmic Chemistry and Physics Centre is to apply research to fundamental chemical processes which are believed to occur throughout the universe. Using a unique combination of theoretical and experimental techniques, such processes are investigated in the laboratory. Comparison of these results with astronomical observations...Evolutionary cycle of Interstellar Organic Molecules - Fullerenes, PAHs, Polyyenes, and biomolecules.

Interstellar Molecules-Evolutionary cycle Molecules have been observed in astronomical environments as diverse as comets in the solar system and galaxies at the highest redshifts. They act as excellent probes of the physical structure and dynamics of such regions, owing to the complexity of...About ISM from history of observation to current status of understanding.
