📢 HITRAN2024 is now live! 🚨
The HITRAN server is temporarily unavailable as we are uploading the final batch of the HITRAN2024 data. Once the server is back online all the data will correspond to the HITRAN2024 edition

Also the Collision-Induced Absorption data have been extended and updated as explained in Terragni et al. 2025 (doi.org/10.1016/j.jqsrt.2025…). More to follow in next few weeks towards the official release of HITRAN2024 edition
Please, check out new HITRAN line lists for H2S,H2CO and OCS. Spectral and dynamic coverage for these molecules have been increased substantially, while the quality of the existing parameters have been improved. hitran.org

🎉 Exciting news! Nikhila A. Chandran (one of our DCs) and Tijs Karman, has published a new paper! 🧪 The study reveals that the CIA spectra of noble gas atom pairs are surprisingly insensitive to the ab initio data used. Big congrats, Nikhila! 👏 #PHYMOL #Research #MSCA #QM

Researchers from the Max Planck Institute for Extraterrestrial Physics @maxplanckpress used the CLS to create a "fingerprint" of a molecule recently discovered in space. Their work could help better understand how life formed on #Earth. bit.ly/4kSLhom
