Scientific paper

Ground based spectroscopic studies of Saturn determined the C/H ratio and D/H ratio in methane, the C12/C13 ratio, and the D/H ratio in hydrogen. The characteristics and location of the upper cloud layers were studied. Methane absorptions were used to interpret Titan spectra. Millimetric studies of PH3 vertical distribution and signatures of species such as HCP were unsuccessful. Carbon monoxide is detected on Titan at 1.6 microns. The D/H ratio in methane was measured, also at 1.6 microns, contributing to knowledge of the origin of deuterium in the Solar System.
