Infrared spectroscopy of gas-phase hydrogenated and methylated pyrenes: from laboratory spectra to the simulated 3.4 $μ$m emission band

Observations of the aromatic infrared emission band at 3.3 $μ$m often reveal satellite emission features in the 3.4 - 3.6 $μ$m range.

Observations of the aromatic infrared emission band at 3.3 $μ$m often reveal satellite emission features in the 3.4 - 3.6 $μ$m range. While the 3.3 $μ$m band is attributed to the CH stretching vibration of polycylic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), the satellite bands -…
