Scientific paper

A possible way for improving our understanding of the physico-chemical processes in the atmospheres of Jupiter and Saturn is the systematic search for new minor atmospheric constituents. On the basis of thermochemical modelling of these atmospheres, many new molecules have been predicted. The authors investigate here the experimental observability of a number of these possible molecules, in the millimeter range. They show in particular that 3 of them (CH3CN, HCP, CH3CCH) might be abundant enough, in Jupiter or Saturn, to be detected in the millimeter range, with today available instrumentation.
