Scientific paper

The spectra of cool stars are completely dominated by very complicated patterns of molecular absorptions. Models of these stars thus require large amounts of data to characterise this behaviour. Progress on providing molecular opacities for such models is discussed with particular emphasis on the calculation of extensive line lists of vibration-rotation transitions for polyatomic molecules such as water. Examples of applications of these line lists to other astrophysical problems are given.
