摘要:Diffuse interstellar bands (DIBs) comprise more than 600 broad absorption features observed between 0.4 and 2.4 microns, widely thought to originate from electronic transitions in complex molecules such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and fullerenes. As such, DIBs serve as powerful diagnostics for exploring the lifecycle and properties of complex organic material in diverse interstellar environments. The Gaia Radial Velocity Spectrometer (RVS) records two prominent DIBs at 862.1 nm (strong) and 864.8 nm (broad). In this talk, I will present our measurements of these two features in Gaia RVS spectra, along with the released products in Gaia DR3 and FPR. I will further discuss an analysis of the carrier properties of the 862.1 nm DIB, including its spatial distribution, kinematics, and evidence for its cationic nature as revealed by its environmental behavior relative to interstellar dust.
