Infrared heterodyne spectroscopy is extremely useful in determining by precise measurements of atomic and molecular infrared line spectra the molecular abundances, velocity structure, and excitation conditions of the interstellar medium, and the temperature- and pressure-profiles of planetary atmospheres (cf. Kostiuk et al. 1977, Betz et al. 1976, 1977, Abbas et al. 1978).
