Abstract
This paper presents a survey of the high-resolution profiles of selected, moderately weak diffuse interstellar bands (DIBs) between 4725 and 6730 A. In very high signal-to-noise spectra, obtained as a result of averaging several individual exposures of reddened, early-type stars that show Doppler splitting of < 2k m s −1 in interstellar gas lines, the profiles seem to have a substructure. This supports the molecular origin hypothesis for DIBs. We studied the profiles of the diffuse interstellar bands at wavelengths of 4726.33, 4963.85, 5418.89, 5541.74, 5544.95, 5546.46, 5762.73, 5766.05, 5769.09, 6439.41, 6445.53, 6449.16, 6729.28 A.
