The authors subjected mixtures of CO, Ar, N2, H2O, and CH4 with 42 percent and 8 percent argon to an electrical discharge, froze out the reaction products at T about 20 K, and subsequently warmed the sample to room temperature. This resulted in a stable residue having broad-band fluorescence. It is suggested tht interstellar grains in the Red Rectangle/HD 44179 are coated with a residue of generally similar composition that is responsible for the broad emission feature in the 5400-7500 A spectral region.
