Scientific paper

The spectra of galactic infrared sources often show a conspicuous absorption band centered on 2.9-3.1 microns, and in many cases also a second feature centered at 3.4 microns. This paper proposes that these data be compared with the predicted behavior of grains of organic material. There are strong indications of the dominance of organic grains near the galactic center and in several IR sources associated with molecular clouds.
