Scientific paper

The authors suggest the discovery of the CS+ molecular ion observed in absorption in the diffuse interstellar clouds on the ζ Oph and δ Sco lines of sight. Synthetic spectra seem to favor a rotational excitation of the (3,0) band of the A2π1/2 - X2Σ+ transition by the cosmological radiation background. This is the first sulphur-bearing molecule detected in diffuse clouds.
