C2Moleküls

C2Moleküls, also known as diatomic carbon, is a molecule composed of two carbon atoms. In its gaseous state, it is a transient species found in environments such as comets, stellar atmospheres, and flames. The C2 molecule exists in a triplet ground state with a bond order of two. Its electronic configuration is typically represented as sigma-squared, pi-to-the-fourth, and sigma-star-squared. The strong triple bond is generally considered to be composed of one sigma bond and two pi bonds, although the ground state is a triplet with a bond order of two. This molecule has a characteristic strong absorption band in the violet region of the spectrum, contributing to its visual presence in certain astronomical phenomena. The Swan bands are a prominent set of molecular electronic transitions associated with C2, responsible for its observed spectral signature. Experimental determination of its spectroscopic properties has been crucial for understanding its role in astrochemistry and combustion processes. Research into C2Moleküls continues to explore its formation mechanisms, reactivity, and its contribution to the elemental composition of various cosmic bodies and high-temperature environments.
