The molecular spectroscopy can be used for Introductory Astronomy
class using real data from published single dish telescope like APEX or IRAM, the public data from NASA and Interferometry observations at 1mm from ALMA (PI:Villicana- Pedraza).
The students learn the basics of the analysis of different kind of astronomical objects.
The observations show some tracers of dense gas and other tracers in galaxies such as Methanol and SiO, also, using the literature they can compare the abundances. In case of the planets the students can analize the spectra of some planets and compare the abundance in them.
In this talk we present the practice that we use in class with college students and some of the results from this activity in class.
