Scientific paper

The first opto-acoustic absorption spectra of liquid methane at 94 K in the region of 5,500-7,500 A is reported here. The observed absorption bands are very weak with peak absorption coefficients of 0.016 to 0.0001 per cm and are of importance in the study of spectra of outer planets (such as Jupiter and Neptune) for detecting the existence of liquid methane on these planets.
