Scientific paper
This grant supported a wide variety of ground-based infrared observing projects. The main results are: detection of a new spectral window in Titan and first measurement of 3-4 micron spectrum of Titan; detection of H2 180 in Jupiter; observations of Jupiter after SL9 searching for CO produced by the impacts. CO was not found in the deep atmosphere indicating that the CO seen at higher altitudes did not extend to the troposphere. Enhanced stratospheric CO allowed for at least some CO emission observed at 2 micron to be due to endogenic CO; and observations of a 4 micron spectrum of Jupiter and Saturn. Lists of refereed publications and abstracts derived from the observations and information from this grant are included.
