Physics

Scientific paper

Gerhard Herzberg was fascinated by the physics of hydrogen throughout his life (1,2) and studied spectra of a variety of hydrogenic species including H, H^-, H_2, H2 ^+ and H_3^+. He was the first to advocate the importance of spectroscopy of H_3^+, both from astronomical and chemical points of view. I shall talk on how his idea and enthusiasm have been succeeded by the younger generation and led to the detection of the laboratory spectrum of H_3^+, as well as to the detection of H_3^+ in astronomical objects such as planetary ionospheres, molecular clouds, and the diffuse interstellar medium. 1.
