The NASA Ames Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon Infrared Spectroscopic Database (PAHdb) provides a from-the-ground-up means to analyze and interpret the PAH component in JWST observations. It offers the spectroscopic data (experimental and theoretical) of PAHs, advanced molecular excitation/emission models, ready-to-use software tools, and the comprehensive documentation needed for astrophysical/chemical modeling or for doing direct spectral fitting. This JWebbinar will provide: 

1. A demonstration of the PAHdb website (www.astrochemistry.org/pahdb): how to search the database content, utilize its online tools for simple analyses, and download data; 
2. An extensive follow-along demonstration of how to use the PAHdb Python suite of models and tools to analyze and interpret JWST observations; and 
3. A demonstration of how to use the lite version of the Python suite, dubbed pyPAHdb.

Ample opportunity will be given for participants to ask questions, discuss PAH-related topics, and provide input on the next steps for PAHdb.

Registration closes May 30.
