  2. Why NON-LTE López-Puertas & Taylor (2001)

  3. Model Atmosphere C2H6 C2H2 CIRS data (Nixon et al., 2007)

  4. Model Atmosphere T CH4 Yelle (2001) Nixon et al. (2007)

  5. 2D cooling spatial

  6. Spectral Cooling Rate (in LOG10) H2-H2&H2-He C2H2-C2H6 CH4 Units: (erg/g/s/cm-1) 10μm ~5μm

  7. Source Functions C2H6 CH4 C2H2

  8. Non-LTE Cooling Rate CH4 Total C2H2-C2H6 H2-H2&H2-He

  9. Non-LTE C2H2-C2H6 Spectra LTE High Collision Low Collision
