Dark matter in the outer solar system.
TL;DR: There are now a large number of small bodies in the outer solar system that are known to be covered with dark material, but attempts to identify that material have been thwarted by the absence of discrete absorption features in the reflection spectra of these planetesimals.

Very High Excitation Lines of H2 in the Orion Molecular Cloud Outflow
TL;DR: The existence of high-temperature H2 appears to be a common characteristic of shock-excited molecular gas as discussed by the authors, and its existence and the apparent dependence of its abundance relative to that of the cooler component on the relative velocities of the outflow and the surrounding ambient gas appear broadly consistent with it having recently reformed.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reported the detection of absorption by hydroxyl cations and water cations along the sight-line to the bright continuum source W49N using the HIFI instrument, in dual beam switch mode.
Temperatures and CH_4 mixing ratios near the homopause of the 8µm north polar hot spot of Jupiter

TL;DR: This paper derived homopause temperatures of 180-250 K for the 8-µm north-polar hot spot (8NPHS) of Jupiter by fitting CH_4 emission models to 3 and 8 µm spectra obtained 24 days apart in 2013.

Infrared Spectra of the R Impact of Comet Shoemaker-Levy 9
TL;DR: In this paper, a series of 2.2-to 2.4-μm spectra of the R impact of Comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 obtained with the UKIRT telescope were recorded at approximately 1- to 2-min intervals spanning the impact event.
