Scientific paper

Observations of Titan atmosphere made with the instrument VIMS on board the Cassini satellite in October 26th, 2004 show in the spectral region around 3.0 μm a strong limb emission at high atmospheric altitudes (above 500 km). This emission shows the spectral signatures of CH4 and HCN. A detailed analysis of the methane emission showed a residual emission that peaks at about 900 km centered at 3.28 μm that could not be assigned to any known CH4 bands. We report on the analysis carried out for unrevealing this emission and propose a possible candidate.
