Abstract :
Quantum-energetic characteristics of terahertz molecular spectra of atmospheric gases-metabolites, atmospheric polluters, some macro- and microbiological structures and relicts background are presented. Interaction effects between these spectra and biological and physical media are shown. New methods of terahertz therapy at the molecular spectra frequencies of atmospheric gases-metabolites as well as a quasi-optical equipment up to 3 THz are presented. A supplement to this main work is three independent publications of 30th International Conference on Infrared and Millimeter Waves and of 13th International Conference on Teraherz Electronics, which are marked by ID numbers TC5-1, TC5-10, and TC5-9.
