The galaxy's 157 micron (C 2) emission: Observations by means of a spectroscopic lunar-occultation techniqueGalactic (C II) 157 micron, fine-structure emission was estimated. At a Galactic longitude of 8 deg, the peak power observed in a 7' x 7' field is approx. 5 x 10 to the -9 Watt. The method used to detect this radiation involved chopping against the cold side of the Moon.
