Scientific paper

CI is an important coolant in the ISM and is an excellent diagnostic of photodissociation regions associated with star formation. We discuss evidence that the CI J=2-1 line is possibly much stronger than the J=1-0 line, indicating a need for high frequency observations of the nuclear regions of starburst galaxies if we wish to understand the thermal processes of the molecular gas in starbursts.
