Scientific paper

Aspects of interstellar chemistry are investigated, taking into account the nature of the carrier of the diffuse interstellar bands, chemical processes in the shocked interstellar gas, interstellar deuterium chemistry, and the interstellar implications of laboratory studies of isotope exchange in ion-neutral reactions. The possible impact of cosmochemistry on terrestrial biology is investigated, giving attention to organic matter in meteorites and Precambrian rocks as clues about the origin and development of living systems, problems in the rate of evolution in biological systems, and questions of terrestrial epidemiology. Microwave and infrared observations are also discussed. Radio observations of molecules in the interstellar gas are considered along with near infrared spectroscopy of protostars, and the IRC+10216 circumstellar shell. A description of laboratory observations and interstellar processes is also provided.
