The LMT with its planned instrumentation will provide an important new tool for studies of deuterated molecules, giving astronomers powerful probes of the linked chemistry and physics of interstellar molecular clouds and comets.deuteriumradio telescopecornetsinterstellar moleculesmolecular cloudsAstrophysics and Astronomyarticle
